I’ll admit it, sometimes I miss the love that I used to have, even if I know now that it wasn’t good love. But there are those moments, those perfect moments that you just can’t forget and makes you miss that love. I thought that I was going to come out the other side of breaking up and be cautious of being that happy again. But if anything I feel more hopeful that I can find someone to share my happiness and love me again. And so in my state of optimism I will grace you with some country song lyrics that made me think of old love.
“The summer air was heavy and sweet/ You and I on a crowded street/ There was music everywhere, I can see us there/ In a happy little foreign town/ Where the stars hung upside down/ A half a world away, far, far away/ I remember you were laughing/ We were so in love, we were so in love/ And the band played songs we had never heard/ But we danced anyway…
They say you can’t go back/ Baby, I don’t believe that/ Come along with me, come dance with me/ Maybe if I hold you close/ Baby, we could just let go/ Of those things that tie us down, we’ll come back around/ Do you remember, we were laughing/ We were so in love, so in love…” -We Danced Anyway, Deanna Carter
“When all our tears have reached the sea/ Part of you will live in me/ Way down deep inside my heart…
You’ll find better love/ Strong as it ever was/ Deep as the river runs/ Warm as the morning sun/ Please remember me…
Remember me when you’re out walking/ When the snow falls high outside your door/ Late at night when you’re not sleeping/ And moonlight falls across your floor/ When I can’t hurt you anymore…” -Please Remember Me, Tim McGraw
“Do I recall, every day/ How you took my breath away?/ Do I remember loving you?/ Yes I do…
Yes I do dream of all we had together/ Yes it’s true we lost it forever/ And do I pray anyway?/ Yes I do…
I don’t live in the past/ Wanting love that wouldn’t last/ I don’t ache like I used to…” -Yes I Do, Rascal Flatts
