Pray For You

Pray For You
Performed By: Sara Evans

Sometimes I wish I could run home to mama's lovin' arms
In the springtime, when the weather's fine
Sittin' with her on the porch, glass of tea and nothin' more
Than her smile, for just a little while
And when I don't know where to go
I think of home and how you use to sing to me, she sang

---Chorus---
Que sera, sera, life goes on
Whatever's meant to be will always be
And baby what don't kill you, will make you strong
Just love the journey that your on
In all you do, I'll pray for you

Wild horses and fairy tales sometimes turn into somethin' else
That you never saw comin' at you at all
So I guess I'm callin' just because he wasnt who I thought he was
And I can't believe he stopped lovin' me
So, when I'm feelin' all alone
I think of home and how you used to sing to me

---Repeat Chorus---

I got babies of my own
And I'm the one that they're countin' on to be here
For every little tear, and I'll sing

---Repeat Chorus---

Just love the journey that your on...oh I think that is so true. Life is such an interesting journey. Just when you think you have things figured out it seems life will throw you a curve ball. I guess that keeps it interesting though. I think this is a great little song. I am guilty of saying whatever's meant to be meant to be will be a lot. I try to tell myself that a lot when I'm down. It takes tough times to make us stronger. I have a glimmer of hope at this moment in my life that I am so excited about it. I hope to goodness the deal works out!!!! If not I guess I'll have to quote this song again. :-) So just love the journey that your on...

It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing

It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing
Written & Performed By: Shania Twain

Hope life's been good to you since you've been gone
I'm doin' fine now--I've finally moved on
It's not so bad--I'm not that sad

I'm not surprised just how well I survived
I'm over the worst, and I feel so alive
I can't complain--I'm free again

Chorus -
And it only hurts when I'm breathing
My heart only breaks when it's beating
My dreams only die when I'm dreaming
So, I hold my breath--to forget

Don't think I'm lyin' 'round cryin' at night
There's no need to worry, I'm really all right
I've never looked back--as a matter of fact

Repeat Chorus

It only hurts when I breathe
No, I've never looked back-- as a matter fact

Repeat Chorus

As I sit here on this dark and rainy evening I'm feeling so so very torn.
I don't want to talk too much and jinx stuff; but I'm having to make some important decisions.
Decisions that once made can not be easily undone.
I'm tired of having a double life... I'm currently so very torn between the two and that's how I'm hurting this evening. There's things about both I love and hold dear. Yet there is also things about each that I'm not so thrilled about. Yet which ever way I decide to go - to gain something I am also going to have to give up something. Decisions - decisions - something I can sometimes have a lot of trouble with. :-/
I guess we'll have to wait and see how this one turns out....

Fallen

Fallen
By: Sarah McLachlan
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMuEw-9t9Xs

Heaven bend to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight

Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

We all begin with good intent
Love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
The past could be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I've held so dear.

I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

Heaven bend to take my hand
Nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turn their heads embarrassed
Pretend that they don't see
But it's one missed step
One slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...[2X]

It's the bitter taste of losing everything that I've held so dear.... -
That's my favorite line of this song.
I do feel I have lost a lot of things I've held dear recently.
I just wishing saying sorry would fix things, yet I don't know if I'm going to get that chance.
Life can be so frustrating sometimes. I can't seem to explain it all.
I guess I've truly just fallen. :/
