'The Story of Us' is about running into someone I had been in a relationship with at an awards show, and we were seated a few seats away from each other. I just wanted to say to him, 'Is this killing you? Because it's killing me.' But I didn't. Because I couldn't. Because we both had these silent shields up.

Relationships are like traffic lights. And I just have this theory that I can only exist in a relationship if it's a green light.

It is possible for a woman to be a romantic, but also to be single and to be happy.

Be good to people. Be good to every single person you come into contact with. My best friends are great musicians. But more than that, they're great people.

What makes me happy is just curling up in with my mom in her bed and watching a marathon of 'CSI' and 'Grey's Anatomy' episodes with pints of ice cream.

Just because you make a good plan, doesn't mean that's what's gonna happen.

Love always ends differently and it always begins differently - especially with me.
