My Life in Country Music

I love that Country Music can fit every mood... For example I can listen to the Lady Antebellum CD and I can pretty much find a song that fits every moment of my complicated dating life. For example...

This is for days when I'm worried about leaving BYU/the mormon dating capital of the world single...

"One Day You Will"

But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will

This is for days when I wished things were different in my relationship...

"All We'd Ever Need"

Everyday I wipe my tears away
So many nights I've prayed for you to say..

I should've been chasing you
I should've been trying to prove
That you were all that mattered to me

I should've said all the things
That I kept inside of me
Maybe I could've made you believe
That what we had was all we'd ever need

This is for good days when I'm sure that everything will go like I planned...

"Can't Take My Eyes Off You"

I love when you tell me that I'm pretty
When I just wake up
And I love how you tease me when I'm moody
But it's never too much
I'm falling fast but the truth is I'm not scared at all
You climbed my walls

So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go
This feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known
And I just can't take my eyes off you
And I just can't take my eyes off you

This is for my tough days when I tell myself I'm leaving to Maryland and won't look back...

"Long Gone"

It's so like you just to show up at my door
And act like nothin's happened
You think I'll sweep my heart up off the floor
And give it to you
Like so many times before
You're talking to a stranger
I'm not that girl anymore

This is for days when I realize that life without my best friend will be miserable...

"Need You Now"

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor.
Reaching for the phone 'cuz I can't fight it anymore.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
For me it happens all the time.
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now.
And I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now.




So many emotions... I must be bipolar... or indecisive. Haha.

Thanks for sharing your music. I'll have to look up some of those songs, they sound great!

Everything will work out for the best, and you'll be stronger for it. Maybe you could write your own country song when all is said and done!
