Wishing. Sugarland.

I know I know...What's the point of posting entries that just list the lyrics of songs? Well, usually I do it because I am listening to that song at the time, and it really just touches home, hits me in the heart. Tonight, it happened to be Sugarland's latest album. Three songs really reminded me of a situation going on in my life as I write this, right NOW. Some of the lyrics relate to me, and how I feel at the moment.  The others, I think shed light on the same situation from the other person's perspective. 

Sometimes it's a pair of 
Old faded denim, I know 
Is gonna fit me like a friend 
Or some radio song 
You can't help but sing along 
Wishing they'd spin it over and over again 
Could the windows down on a Sunday drive 
Smelling rain on a summer night 
Anything that brings a little more comfort my way 

But sometimes 
There's those times 
Its gotta be you 
I keep telling myself I'm moving on 
But I'm stumbling 
Believing my heart was strong enough 
And now I'm wondering 
But every step that I take that leads me away 
Just circles back to your door 
Wishing I didn't love you anymore 

I've tried turning to 
The arms of someone new 
But I can't seem to fool this fool 
I've seen closing times 
With every bottle dry 
I've seen days alone in my own room 
I'll ask God and magazines 
Stacks of books and movie screens 
Anything to bring a little more comfort my way 

But sometimes 
There's those times 
Its gotta be you 
I keep telling myself I'm moving on 
But I'm stumbling 
Believing my heart was strong enough 
And now I'm wondering 
But every step that I take that leads me away 
Just circles back to your door 
Wishing I didn't love you anymore, of you 
Give me More 

I've done everything that I came to forget 
If there is a way I ain't found it yet 

I keep telling myself I'm moving on 
Believing my heart was strong 
But every step that I take that leads me away 
Just circles back to your door 
Wishing I didn't love you 
What I'd give if I could touch you 
Wishing I didn't love you anymore
