Song lyrics that remind you of YOU


Not the adoption, not your baby or your marriage, but YOU. That song that whenyou hear it you say oh yeah, I get that.

This might take some thinking, huh???

Here's mine: "(s)He's an angel, with no halo, and one wing in the fire." Oh yeah.

That country song....

"She's got that certain thing about her....same thing that makes it hard to love her...also brings me to my knees"

That we need to consolate or whatever it says....reminds me of me and dh. LOL Basically the same thing that makes him want to strangle me is why he loves me :-D

Without a dout the song "Blessed" by Martina Mcbride. I LOVE THAT SONG. It makes me cry everytime I hear it. That song was written about my life.

When I was young "take it easy" by Travis Tritt
but now I would say "Mississippi Girl" by Faith Hill but I'm a Ky girl.

" Cause a Kentucky girl don't change her ways
Just cause everybody knows her name
Ain't big-headed from a little bit of fame
I still like wearing my old ball cap"

I'm a bi***
I'm a lover
I'm a child

I do not feel ashamed
I'm your he**
I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way."

Lessons Learned~Carrie Underwood

There's some things that I regret
Some words I wish had gone unsaid
Some starts that had some better endings

Been some bad times I've been through
Dammage I cannot undo
Some things I wish I could do all over again

But it don't really matter, life gets that much harder
It makes you that much stronger
Oh some pages turned, some bridges burned
But there were some leasons learned.

There is a song by Rob Thomas that I claim was written for me . . . .

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be Me
[/color]

Going through this adoption process just proves this song is about me.

I HOPE YOU DANCE ... Lee Ann Womack

Okay - the first time I heard this song on the radio (and I remember exactly where I was) tears just started rolling down my face. My life seems to have had obstacles/challenges more so than a lot of people I know - but nowhere near as many as others. It's a song that makes me sing, cry, smile and just realize that life is just an amazing cycle. I love it and will never allow myself to be "down" for any length of time - there are simply too many things to embrace and celebrate.

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....I hope you dance.

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance,
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone.)

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

One Good Woman

This is a late 80s song that I loved as a teenager. I always thought, "I hope when I get married that my husband thinks this way about me." Cheesy, I know. But I apparently will admit to doing and saying a lot of cheesy things on this board :-)

One Good Woman - Peter Cetera

I am so in love with you
I just can't deny it
Everybody knows i can't deny it
Everybody knows
You can read me like a book
Just like a fortune teller
Everybody needs a fortune tller
Telling you the very truth

You bring out the best in me
With love and understanding
Anytime i need some understanding
You are always there

And if i ever lose my way
You're always there to guide me
Anyone can see you're here inside me
Anyone can see it

You fill me with hope
Love and devotion
You taught me how to show my emotion
Just goes to prove
What one good woman can do

This is our time, we have it all
We have a way of knowing if we're heading for a fall
We'll work it out and get it right
And when i get home to you
You're such a sight for my poor eyes

You bring me feelin'
You bring me fire
You give me love that's taking me higher
Just goes to prove
What one good woman can do

Here is mine...it is also playing on my MySpace page! It is like the theme song that runs through my head and makes me smile---sorta like Alley McBeal's "head song" for those of you who watched that years ago!

Crazy lyrics by Gnarls Barkley.
Crazy - Gnarls Barkley
I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that phase.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Probably

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

I couldn't just post some of it....because the entire song is me! ) And I am a counselor...it just fits me almost TOO much!

LOVE this post!

There are some good ones posted. I love many of the songs mentioned.

There are so many lyrics in so many songs that remind me of myself but I do love a Tim McGraw song entitled "Can't Tell Me Nothin" (I am a bit hard headed!!!)

This is the chorus.

Talk is cheap and free advice
Is worth the price you pay
I had to find out for myself the hard way
You can't tell me nothin'

My DH would definitely say this is fitting for me!!
