Meaningful Songs

I have always paid close attention to the lyrics in popular songs. I am constantly searching for the songs that voice my feelings. I have kept a running list of some of my favorite songs. The ones that make me stop and think about my life and what I've gone through or what I dream to have. Check out these songs and add some of your favorites.

"You'll Never Be Lonely"
"She's Every Woman" by Garth Brooks
"I Get to Come Home to you" by John Michael Montgomery
"You'll think of Me" by Keith Urban
"Little Things" by Brooks & Dunn
"I'm Moving On" by Rascal Flats ** Lots of meaning for me**

And my new Favorite, "My Sister" by Reba McEntire.


Hey girl it's me I just called to tell you hi
Call me when you get this
Haven't talked lately so hard to find the time
Give the boys a big kiss
Tell them that I miss them
By the way I miss you too

I was thinking just today
About how we used to play
Barbie dolls and make-up
Tea parties dress up
I remember how we'd fight
We made up and laughed all night
Wish we were kids again
My sister my friend

Oh yeah before I forget I met someone
I think I really like him
I was wondering if I'm jumping the gun
By going out on a limb
And invite him home for Christmas
To meet the family

Seem like just yesterday
You brought home old what's his name
He had been drinking
What were you thinking
After dinner he passed out
We can laugh about it now
We've learned a lot since then
My sister my friend

Do you think you could come and see me sometime soon
We could just hang out like we used to
It's late and I should go
But I can't hang up the phone
Until I tell you
What I don't tell you enough
Even though at times it seemed
We were more like enemies
I'd do it all again
My sister my friend


The first time I heard this song, I was actually on a NO SISTER STRIKE. :o) That sounds bad, but my sisters love me so much, that every time I spoke to them I felt like we were having an intervention. They knew that my boyfriend was not right for me, but they didn't want to wait for me to see it. So I felt it was best to pull away for a while and focus on what I wanted. It seemed though, that this song was playing everytime I got in the car. It reminded me of our Barbie Kingdom that took over half our Basement. The song also brought to mind all the boyfriends we brought home for different family events. I don't recall any of them getting really drunk, but most weren't good enough to be there.
I hope that when I move, my sisters still intervene and visit often.

I love you MommaK and AM!
