Musical Memories

Today I found myself skimming through my cd collection for lack of anything better to do. Considering I don't exactly have an immense amount of cds, I stumbled upon some older ones pretty quickly, and decided to listen to them. Listening to this music, every one reminded me of a time in my life. You know what I'm talking about, from Backstreet Boys to Nelly, they all sent my mind into a fit of memories. Some good, and some bad, but either way I could remember exactly what was happening at that time in my life. I remember all the struggles I had, and all the lessons I'd learned.....some I've forgotten. Some that I needed to remember. Then I found a couple of songs who's lyrics didn't mean much to me back then, but now they do. Music has always had a big impact in my life, hence the reason I chose it as my major. But it's moments like these that make me happy I did. So I'm going to post some of the lyrics up here....but not all of them because, well, that would be quite long. So here they are......take them however you want.

Sweetest Goodbye

Where you are seems to be
As far as an eternity
Outstretched arms open hearts
And if it never ends then where do we start?
I'll never leave you behind
Or treat you unkind
I know you understand
And with a tear in my eye
Give me the sweetest goodbye
That I ever did receive

How does it feel to know that you never have to be alone
When you get home
There must be someplace here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I...

Dream away everyday
Try so hard to disregard
The rhythm of the rain that drops
And coincides with the beating of myheard

I'll never leave you behind
Or treat you unkind
I know you understand
And with a tear in my eye
Give me the sweetest goodbye
That I ever did recieve...

Things Will Go My Way

I came to tell you
How it all began
Nothing seems to work out right
I'm broken down again
So hold me now
Say it's not forever
Cause maybe someday
In time
Things will go my way...
Things will go my way...

I've pushed to get through
The crowds of twisted souls
Just to find I'm right back here
Doing what I'm told
So take my hands
Don't let me surrender
Cause maybe someday
In time
Things will go my way...
Things will go my way...

From all the lies I've tasted
Just looking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
Well what am I to do?
When everything's against me
And the answers are all wrong
I'm hoping that I'll find out
It was worth it all along

So hold me now
Say it's not forever
Cause I know someday
In time
Things will go my way...
Things will go my way...

Beautiful Disaster

He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He's as dumb as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
It just ain't right

Oh when I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful

So that's it. I guess I'll just let the words speak for themselves.....they usually do.
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

His magical myth
As strong as with I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
And do I try to change him
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight
Hold on tight

Oh cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's soft to the touch
But afraid at the end he breaks
He's never enough
And still leaves more than I can take
Oh cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster

So that's it. I guess I'll just let the words speak for themselves.....they usually do.
