Like We Used To

I have loved "A Rocket To The Moon" ( AKA Nick Santino ) for quite a while now, and if you haven't heard of him....Then the links at the end of this post will be very useful ;)








Like We Used To ~Lyrics~

I can feel her breath
As she's sleeping next to me
Sharing pillows and cold feet
She can feel my heart;
Fell asleep to its beat
Under blankets and warm sheets
If only I could be in that bed again
If only it were me instead of him

Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times?
Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to Purple Rain?
Does he do all these things
Like I used to?

Fourteen months and seven days ago
Oh, I know you know
How we felt about that night
Just your skin against the window
Oh we took it slow
And we both know
It should have been me inside that car
It should have been me instead of him in the dark

Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times?
Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to Purple Rain?
Does he do all these things
Like I used to?

I know, Love
(I'm a sucker for that feeling)
Happens all the time, Love
(I always end up feeling cheated)
You're on my mind, Love
(Oh darling, led her where that leaded)
It happens all the time, Love, yeah

Will he love you like I loved you?
Will he tell you every day?
Will he make you make you feel like you're invincible
With every word he'll say?
Can you promise me if this was right,
Don't throw this all away?
Can you do all these things?
Will you do all these things
Like we used to?

Oh, like we used to...

If I Die Young

So this post is to introduce a band that is just surfacing in the the industry. It consists of 3 people ( 2 guys, 1 girl) And they have an amazing gift for song writing. They have an EP out on iTunes. I recommend buying it if you like country and appreciate meaningful lyrics. A song that has touched my heart is their new single " If I Die Young" Below I'll add a few links for this band. They really are a breath of fresh air.

The let down.

Okay, so I am a Twilight fan....HUGE..Twilight fan to be more precise. So this post is based on this topic. If you're not a Twilight fan ( Because I have heard there are a few of you out there lol) Then you might want to just skip this post :)



And just to clear something up. I AM 100% TEAM JACOB. And I will not be swayed otherwise. Mmmk? Mmmk ;)




You know how you want something to happen and then find out that the opportunity was right there, but you missed it. By a few yards or a few miles? Yeah. That's happened to me quite a few times actually. But this time, when I found out I had missed what might have been my only chance to meet the cast of Twilight....I wanted to scream. Turns out that, they were in a restaurant not even a mile from where I work. And I had no idea. I mean, this is a small town, you would never think that would happen. But alas, it did. And my quest to meet Taylor Lautner continues.... :|

Chase Coy :)

CHASE COY...A Lyrical Genius.
His newest album "Picturesque" is beautiful
His song "Eight-Dollar Engagement Rings" is among my favorites.
Check him out. His official Myspace link is http://www.myspace.com/chasecoy

" So don't cry darling, I'll be there in the morning but you know
That the worst part is always heading home.." <3

Introductory...

" Just a small town girl...LIVING IN A LONELY WORLD!" ( Belting To Journey Heals The Soul)


So I am always writing. Anywhere and everywhere. Showing my deepest emotions never really comes easy for me, so I write. Because somehow everything becomes easier on paper. And if someone gets a laugh, or can say " So..I'm not alone" from my day to day experiences or thoughts, then that's just a nice little bonus ;)


Whoever said " Where words fail, music speaks"...Apparently knew my heart personally.


Apart from random thoughts, stories, poems and whatever else pops into my head, I also write songs. Though they never see the light of day due to my annoyingly stubborn, analytical mind that just won't budge. I can be quite the perfectionist when it comes to my art, in any form. So I guess the hope that one day I might get past that flaw will have to do for now.


But until I can either write a song that's worth it to me to share or just not be so critical of the ones I've already written, I will share some of the singers/Bands/Songs that are already out there, the ones that are already popular and I just want to brag on, or some of the ones that don't get enough recognition. :)

C'est la vi....Shelly <3
