Sometimes a song comes along that feels like it was written for me or about me. When I hear particular songs I often stop where ever I am, and cry. Other songs bring me back to a special moment or remind me of a special feeling. Often I find a song that says exactly what I am needing to say. Why re-write something that was already written so well! The following song lyrics mean something to me for one reason or another. Who You’d Be Today (Kenny Chesney)
Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. I feel you everywhere I go. I see your smile, I see your face, I hear you laughin’ in the rain. I still can’t believe you’re gone.
It ain’t fair: you died too young, Like the story that had just begun, But death tore the pages all away. God knows how I miss you, All the hell that I’ve been through, Just knowin’ no-one could take your place. An’ sometimes I wonder, Who’d you be today?
Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams? Settle down with a family, I wonder what would you name your babies? Some days the sky’s so blue, I feel like I can talk to you, An’ I know it might sound crazy.
Cross My Heart (George Strait)
Our love is unconditional We knew it from the start I can see
it in your eyes You can feel it from my heart from here on after Lets stay the way we are right now And share all the love and laughter That a lifetime will allow
I cross my heart And promise to Give all Ive got to give To make all your dreams come true In all the world You’ll never find A love as true as mine
You will always be the miracle That makes my life complete And as long as there’s still breath in me Ill make yours just as sweet As we look into the future Its as far as we can see So lets make each tomorrow Be the best that it can be
And if along the way we find a day It starts to storm You’ve got the promise of my love To keep you warm
I cross my heart And promise to Give all Ive got to give To make all your dreams come true In all the world You’ll never find A love as true as mine
My Wish (Rascal Flatts) aka Addison’s Song
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow, and each road leads you where you want to go, and if you’re faced with a choice, and you have to choose, I hope you choose the one that means the most to you. and if one
door opens to another door closed, I hope you keep on walkin’ ’til you find the window, if it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile, but more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to, your dreams stay big, your worries stay small, You never need to carry more than you can hold, and while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to, I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too, Yeah, this, is my wish.
I hope you never look back, but ya never forget, all the ones who love you, in the place you left, I hope you always forgive, and you never regret, and you help somebody every chance you get, Oh, you find God’s grace, in every mistake, and always give more then you take.
But more than anything, Yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to, your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small, You never need to carry more than you can hold, and while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to, I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too, Yeah, this, is my wish.
The River (Garth Brooks) [As I was driving away from home for the first time on my way to move to Hawaii, my dad told me to listen to this song and believe in it.]
You know a dream is like a river
Ever changin’ as it flows
And a dreamer’s just a vessel
That must follow where it goes
Trying to learn from what’s behind you
And never knowing what’s in store
Makes each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores…and
I will sail my vessel ‘Til the river runs dry Like a bird upon the wind These waters are my sky I’ll never reach my destination If I never try So I will sail my vessel ‘Til the river runs dry
Too many times we stand aside And let the waters slip away ‘Til what we put off ’til tomorrow Has now become today So don’t you sit upon the shoreline And say you’re satisfied Choose to chance the rapids And dare to dance the tide…yes
I will sail my vessel ‘Til the river runs dry Like a bird upon the wind These waters are my sky I’ll never reach my destination If I never try So I will sail my vessel ‘Til the river runs dry
There’s bound to be rough waters And I know I’ll take some falls But with the good Lord as my captain I can make it through them all…yes
Just Another Day in Paradise (Phil Vasser)
The kids screaming, phone ringing
Dog barking at the mailman bringing
That stack of bills – overdue
Good morning baby, how are you?
Got a half hour, quick shower
Take a drink of milk but the milk’s gone sour
My funny face makes you laugh
Twist the top on and I put it back
There goes the washing machine
Baby, don’t kick it.
I promise I’ll fix it
Long about a million other things
Well, it’s ok. It’s so nice It’s just another day in paradise Well, there’s no place that I’d rather be Well, it’s two hearts And one dream I wouldn’t trade it for anything And I ask the Lord every night For just another day in paradise
Friday, you’re late Guess we’ll never make our dinner date At the restaurant you start to cry Baby, we’ll just improvise Well, plan B looks like Dominoes’ pizza in the candle light Then we’ll tippy toe to our room Make a little love that’s overdue But somebody had a bad dream Mama and daddy Can me and my teddy Come in to sleep in between?
Yeah it’s ok. It’s so nice. It’s just another day in paradise. Well, there’s no place that I’d rather be Well, it’s two hearts And one dream I wouldn’t trade it for anything And I ask the Lord every night For just another day in paradise
Well, it’s ok. It’s so nice. It’s just another day in paradise. Well, there’s no place that I’d rather be Two hearts And one dream I wouldn’t trade it for anything And I ask the Lord every night For just another day in paradise
