Joy

Heard from an old friend today it was nice to chat even if it was for only a few minutes. Life flys by and yet some things stand still until they are picked up right where you left off. In the sense that you don't skip a beat. It's never awkward, words are spoken and you feel instantly happy to hear from them.
There are very few friends in this world that you are able to do that with. Very few.
I'm a happy girl today.

My Front Porch lookin in

This song makes my heart Smile

the only ground i ever owned was stickin to my shoes
no i look at my front porch in this panoramic view
i could sit and watch the field fill up with rays of golden sun
or watch the moon lay on the fences like thats where it was hung

my investments are in front of me its not about the land
ill never beat the view
from my front porch lookin in

[chorus]
theres a carrot top who can barely walk
with a sippy cup of milk
a lil blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong cuz she likes to dress herself
and the most beautiful girl
holdin both of them
yea the view i love the most is my front porch lookin in

yea yea

i travel here and everywhere
followin my job
iv seen the paintings from the air
brushed by the hand of god
the mountains and the canyons reach from sea to shining sea
but i cant wait to get bak home to the woman he made for me

cuz anywhere ill ever go and everywhere iv been
nuthin takes my breath away like my front porch lookin in

[chorus]

i see wut beautiful is about
when im lookin in
not when im lookin out

[chorus]

theres a carrot top that can barely walk
(from my front porch lookin in)
a lil blue eyed blonde w/ shoes on wrong
(from my front porch lookin in)
the most beautiful girl
holdin both of them
oooo yea

Family Man

This song makes me cry every time I hear it!! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!!!!!!

I've been working as a temp
At the local factory
I hope they hire me on full time
I've got shoes to buy
and a mouth to feed.

I drive a buy here, pay here truck
It ain't new, but it is for me
It ain't much but it fires right up
and get me from A to B

What puts the dirt underneath my nails
What keeps the calluses on my hands
Family man

They're a world my world revolves around
My sacred piece of solid ground
The flesh and bone that gives me strength to stand
They are a fire in my driving on
The drive behind my coming home
The living, breathing, reason that I am
A family man

There's dirty shirts to wash
Dishes in the sink to do
And there's how many times
Does 17 go into 52
There's bedtime prayers to pray
Sleep tights and I love you's
And then there's a pair of eyes
I get to lose myself into

What keeps me keeping the faith
What makes me believe I can
Family man

They're a world my world revolves around
My sacred piece of solid ground
The flesh and bone that gives me strength to stand
They are a fire in my driving on
The drive behind my coming home
The living, breathing, reason that I am
A family man


There's a fire in my driving on
The drive behind my coming home
The living, breathing, reason that I am
A family man

A family man

Where do I go from you?!

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gas up my truck and I drive into town
But I spend all my time just running around
Trying to shake this negative mood I'm in

I've nowhere to go if I wanna get down
All the usual suspects are hanging around
But after a round or two it was just a another day again
For a minute or two I'll get you off of my mind
But you keep coming back to me every time

Where do I go to get over the fact
That you got on a plane and you ain't coming back?
I said what I said and you did what you had to do
Where does a man have to go to get over the truth?
Where do I go from you?

I bury myself in my job all day
Just trying to get lost in the usual ways
Smiling and laughing and joking around with the guys

Gotta do something to deaden the pain
So I stare out the window just watching the rain
But all I can see in the haze is the gray of your eyes

So what do I do with all the pieces of you in me?
If you're never coming back set me free

Where do I go to get over the fact
That you got on a plane and you ain't coming back?
I said what I said and you did what you had to do
Where does a man have to go to get over the truth?
Where do I go from you? Where do I go from you?

Where do I go to get over the fact
That you got on a plane and you ain't coming back?
I said what I said and you did what you had to do
Where does a man have to go to get over the truth?
Where do I go from you? Where do I go from you?
