If the song fits...

It's been over six months since I last talked to Kentucky. I wish I could say that I don't ever think about him and that I've moved on, but truth is...he still manages to occupy a lot of my brain space (along with thoughts of squirrels, frozen corn and how I'm going to afford that super dresser from Ikea... HAHA!). I think the hardest part is that it just ended. I don't know what he's doing now and that hurts the most. I'm fine with things not going the way I had hoped...that's life - you can't make someone love with you. But not being able to keep the awesome friend I had (or I thought I had) just sucks. Especially when that friend promises you that no matter what...you'll always be friends. Yeah right. Anyway, my life is lovely and it rules - I have all sorts of things to keep me bouncing around like a little kid hopped up on Pixie Stix. I guess sometimes I just get a little melancholy. So during my temporary, sugar-free pity party, a song came to mind: Jamey Johnson's "Dreaming My Dreams With You". Jamey Johnson rules the cool school. His voice reminds me of a cross between Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings and he seriously writes the most amazing songs. I bought his latest album a couple months ago and fell in love with it. This song is definitely one of my favorites - the lyrics just manage to hit home right now...


Jamey Johnson, "Dreaming My Dreams With You"

I hope that I won't be that wrong anymore,
And maybe I've learned this time.
I hope that I find what I'm reaching for,
the way that it is in my mind.

Someday I'll get over you.
I'll live to see it all through.
But I'll always miss,
Dreaming my dreams with you.

But I won't let it change me,
Not if I can.
I'd rather believe in love.
And give it away as much as I can,
To those that I'm fondest of.

Someday I'll get over you.
I'll live to see it all through.
But I'll always miss,
Dreaming my dreams with you.
