Lyrics that stood out to me today

Being the singer I am and always relating to lyrics there are times on the train to and from work that certain lyrics hit me. Today it was this song by Carrie Underwood. Reminds me that sometimes we are always looking for something that might already be there. We chase what we think we want, only to look back and see what we had. Life is funny that way, although it is all in the bumps in this journey, and sometimes looking back makes us realize just how lucky we are. I know it seems to relate more to relationships, but I was looking at it as a bigger picture. So perhaps today I will assess my life and see all the blessings I do have and realize it is closer then I think it is.


You Won't find this

Did you check the tires
Put gas in the car
Don't think you need to much,
'cause you ain't gonna get that far
Did you pack the good times
Don't forget a map
Just in case the route you take
isn't there to take you back

You can hold any girl that you like
Fall in love when it's easy at night
But, you'll wake up wondering
why she ain't ever something better
When you're lost and run out of road
Find what I already know
In the end closer's all there is
But you won't find this
No, you won't find this

There's once in a lifetime
And there's once in a while
And the difference between the two
is about a million miles
Oh, you might get lucky
while the moon is looking up
But in the truth of the morning,
the stars will be long gone

You can hold any girl that you like
Fall in love when it's easy at night
But, you'll wake up wondering why
she ain't ever something better
When you're lost and run out of road
Find what I already know
In the end closer's all there is
But you won't find this
