I'm a big one to turn to music when things in my life go wrong. Thought maybe some of you could appreciate this song during this time in your life. Makes me feel I'm not the only one..and your not the only one either...:)

 

 

People say she's only in my head

Gonna take time but I'll forget

They say I need to get on with my life

But they don't realize

 

Is when you're dialing 6 numbers just to hang up the phone

Driving cross town just to see if she's home

Waking a friend in the dead of the night

just to hear him say its going to be alright

When you're finding things to do, not to fall asleep

Cause you know she will be there in your dreams

that's when she's

more than a memory

 

I took a match to everything she ever wrote

watched her words go up in smoke

tore all her pictures off the wall

that aint helping me at all

 

'Cause when you're talking out loud and nobody's there

you look like hell and you just don't care

you're drinking more than you ever drank

sinking down lower than you ever sank

when you find yourself falling down upon your knees

praying to God, begging him "please"

that's when she's

more than a memory

 

she's more

she's more

 

cause when you're dialing her number just to hang up the phone

Driving cross town just to see if she's home

Waking a friend in the dead of the night

just to hear him say its going to be alright

When you're finding things to do, not to fall asleep

Cause you know she 's waiting in your dreams

that's when she's

more than a memory

Yeah, it's one I can identify with. I've done all the things listed (except the drinking bit) and still am to some extent, today was one of those days for me in particular. It's a bitch.

As a 60's rocker, from both sides of the stage, I largely ignored the country music scene. Awhile back someone turned me on to a song by Billy Joel, "Shameless" turns out it was written and originally recorded/performed by Brooks.

 

That tune still stirs me everytime I hear it, it speaks truth.
