Songs for Thought....

For those of you who know me well, you know Songs have deep meanings to me... I can find ways to relate songs to my life all the time....now sometimes I leave them as they are...and sometimes I change the words to fit my life...

Below are some song lyrics, some with explanations and some without (you can try to figure those out yourself)

Sometimes I think about you

Wonder if you're out there somewhere thinking bout me
And would you even recognize
The woman that your little girl has grown up to be
Cause I look in the mirror and all I see
Are your green eyes looking back at me
They're the only thing you ever gave to me at all...

Oh, I hear the weather's nice down in Florida
There's sunny skies as far I can see
If you ever come back home to Ohio
I wonder what you'd say to me

I think about how it ain't fair
That you weren't ever there
Like fathers do
You weren't around to cheer me on
Watch me go to my high school prom
Like fathers do
no you were never here
To hold my hand
To dry my tears
Did you even miss me through the years at all

Forgiveness is such a simple word
But it's so hard to do when you've been hurt

Oh, I hear the weather's nice down in Florida
And just in case you're wondering about me
Im still here in Ohio

your little girl is all...

your little girls' all grown, wish you could see...

(now for those of you who know me, you know not to judge the lyrics of this song...I got lucky to have a wonderful man in my life who chose to be my father, but theres always that curiosity about the father i never knew)

Notice me take my hand
Why are we strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me?

Every time I try to fly
I fall 

without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby

I make believe
That you are here
It's the only way
I see clear


And every time I try to fly
I fall 

without my wings

I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby

I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song is my sorry

At night I pray
That soon your face
Will fade away

And every time I try to fly
I fall 

without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby

This one is a very special song with a very special meaning to me..brings tears "Everytime"

and last but not least...i think 3's enough for tonight....

I will not make
The same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
'Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break
The way you did, you fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you, I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh, every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When i've watched all that you have dealt with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you, I am afraid

I watched you die, I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep
I was so young, you should have known
Better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain

and now i cry in the middle of the night

for THE SAME DAMN THING....

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest just to forget EVERYTHING
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you, I am afraid......

BECAUSE OF YOU....

so this song goes very VERY deep, and i dont care to disclose who its about but it is THE PERFECT SONG FOR ME!
