I heard this one the other day and it reminded me of my decision...not to take another....one marriage is all i need and WH will always be MY husband....
Journey Seperate Ways
Here we stand Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two Sleepless nights Losing ground I’m reaching for you, you, you
Feelin’ that it’s gone Can change your mind If we can’t go on To survive the tide love divides
Someday love will find you Break those chains that bind you One night will remind you How we touched And went our separate ways If he ever hurts you True love won’t desert you You know I still love you Though we touched And went our separate ways
Troubled times Caught between confusions and pain, pain, pain Distant eyes Promises we made were in vain, vain, vain
If you must go, I wish you love You’ll never walk alone Take care my love Miss you love
(chorus twice)
I still love you girl I really love you girl And if he ever hurts you True love won’t desert you No, no

AHHH! i found yet another....this one if for all of us wishing and hopign our loves come home:
BAND OF GOLD Freda Payne (Dunbar-Wayne)
Now that you're gone All that's left is a band of gold All that's left of the dream I hold Is a band of gold And the memories of what love could be If you are still here with me
You took me from the shelter of a mother I had never known Who loved any other We kissed after taking vows But that night on our honeymoon We stayed in separate rooms
I wait in the darkness of my lonely room Filled with sadness, filled with gloom Hoping soon that you'll walk Back through that door And love me like you tried before
Since you've been gone All that's left is a band of gold All that's left of the dream I hold Is a band of gold And the dream of what love could be If you are still here with me
Ooh, don't you know that I wait in the darkness of my lonely room Filled with sadness, filled with gloom Hoping soon that you'll walk Back through that door And love me like you tried before
Since you've been gone All that's left is a band of gold All that's left of the dream I hold Is a band of gold And the dream of what love could be If you are still here with me

"Wind and Sand" (Eric Andersen) [Albums: Blue River, Selected Songs]
"All alone a father sits Thinking of his son. Far away a mother sleeps Her baby yet unborn.
Rain and wood and fire and stone Magic all across the land. Seasons come and times will go Right through your hand, Like wind and sand.
In awhile a child will grow. A bird will learn to fly. Pretty soon a child will know What it is to make a life.
Rain and wood and fire and stone Magic all across the land. Seasons come and times will go Right through your hand, Like wind and sand.
Long before the river goes Far from where it was. Long before it meets the sea, A child will know of love.
Rain and wood and fire and stone Magic all across the land. Seasons come and times will go Right through your hand, Like wind and sand."

This song reminds me of d-day or when the BS knows there's something not quite right with the marriage and suspects an A.
Garth Brooks - The Thunder Rolls
Three thirty in the morning, Not a soul in sight, The city’s lookin’ like a ghost town On a moonless summer night. Raindrops on the windshield, There’s a storm moving in. He’s headin’ back from somewhere That he never should have been. And the thunder rolls. And the thunder rolls.
Every light is burnin’ In a house across town. She’s pacin’ by the telephone In her faded flannel gown. Askin’ for miracle, Hopin’ she’s not right, Prayin’ it’s the weather That’s kept him out all night. And the thunder rolls. And the thunder rolls.
(chorus) The thunder rolls And the lightnin’ strikes. Another love grows cold On a sleepless night, As the storm blows on Out of control Deep in her heart The thunder rolls.
She’s waitin’ by the window When he pulls into the drive She rushes out to hold him Thankful he’s alive But on the wind and rain A strange new perfume blows And the lightnin’ flashes in her eyes And he knows that she knows And the thunder rolls And the thunder rolls
*chorus*
(third verse) She runs back down the hallway To the bedroom door She reaches for the pistol Kept in the dresser drawer Tells the lady in the mirror He won’t do this again Cause tonight will be the last time She’ll wonder where he’s been
Okay, we haven't gone that far.

Marsmom, "Beautiful In My Eyes" was my wedding song 9 years ago. Even reading the words still bring tears to my eyes.
me/bs:34 H/fwh:31 ow/40/2 teen sons M 20 yrs d-day 5/16/2002 H wanted 'us' to work, but still thick into the fog until late 2002 Quit his job w/ow in Jan 2003 Start of full blown recovery OW admits to her H about the A 5/2/2003 because someone at her job doesnt like her much and is threatening to tell her H about ALL of her A's Her H calls my H 5/20/03 to tell him that he is divorcing her. My H discovers many things about her he never would have guessed, including he was not her only A in her 20 yr. M.
Me: I have a better M than I ever thought possible. It's even better now than pre-A.

Sometimes I can't stand all the sad songs. Never much thought about them until I could be the one singing them. For me rap is the best now. I don't much listen to the words but dance like a fool to the beat <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

This is off of Usher's new CD which use to be hard to listen to as it is all about cheating. But I like this song, the guy dumps his girl and then after she is gone realizes he made a mistake. How many of us can relate to that?
"Burn" by Usher
Girl, understand why See it's burning me to hold onto this I know this is something I gotta do But that don't mean I want to What I'm trying to say is that I-love-you I just I feel like this is coming to an end And its better for me to let it go now than hold on and hurt you I gotta let it burn
[Verse 1] It's gonna burn for me to say this But it's comin from my heart It's been a long time coming But we done been fell apart Really wanna work this out But I don't think ya gonna change ya I do but you don't Think it's best we go our separate ways Tell me why I should stay in this relationship When I'm hurting baby, I ain't happy baby Plus theres so many other things I gotta deal with I think that you should let it burn
[Chorus] When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to Even though this might bruise you Let it burn Let it burn Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you Hate the thought of her being with someone else But you know that it's over You know that it was through Let it burn Let it burn Gotta let it burn
[Verse 2] Sendin' pages I ain't supposed to Got somebody here but I want you Cause the feelin ain't the same find myself Callin' her your name Ladies tell me do you understand? Now all my fellas do you feel my pain? It's the way I feel I know I made a mistake Now it's too late I know she ain't comin back What I gotta do now To get my shorty back Ooo ooo ooo ooooh Man I don't know what I'm gonna do Without my booo You've been gone for too long It's been fifty-eleven days, um-teen hours Imma be burnin' till you return (let it burn)
[Chorus] When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to Even though this might bruise you Let it burn (let it burn, let it burn, you gon'learn) Let it burn (gotta let it burn) Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you Hate the thought of her being with someone else But you know that it's over you know that it was through Let it burn Let it burn Gotta let it burn
[Bridge] I'm twisted cuz one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on On the other side I wanna break down and cry (ooooh) I'm twisted cuz one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on On the other side I wanna break down and cry (yeah)
[Breakdown] Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh Ooh ooh oooh (can ya feel me burnin'?) Ooh ooh ooh oooh ooh oooh
So many days, so many hours I'm still burnin' till you return
[Chorus] When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to Even though this might bruise you Let it burn Let it burn Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you Hate the thought of her being with someone else But you know that it's over You know that it was through Let it burn Let it burn Gotta let it burn

I've always been a rocker but started listening to C&W when my ordeal started. I burned these 2 by Alan Jackson on a CD with some others for WxW. She said this one reminded her of me and made her laugh. Now that I think about her laughing about it, it p!$$e$$ me off.
Hole in the Wall
There's a hole in the wall Where a nail used to be A nail that held a picture of The one that once held me
Now that wall's tellin' me What I don't wanna hear I'm tired of the word "fool" Ringin' in my ears
Oh I guess a saner man Would simply paint it But I'm not sane and after all It's my wall, ain't it I've got this hammer in my hand And when I'm through There'll be a hole in that wall Big enough to drive a truck through
When you lose the greatest love You've ever had A little hole in the wall Is enough to drive you mad
Oh I guess a saner man Would simply paint it But I'm not sane and after all It's my wall, ain't it I've got this hammer in my hand And when I'm through There'll be a hole in that wall Big enough to drive a truck through
Oh I've got this hammer in my hand And when I'm through There'll be a hole in that wall Big enough to drive a truck through
And she said this one made her cry. It did me too. Friends and family kept asking me why was I doing this to my self. I went back to rock and roll it isn't as depressing.
Remeber When
Remember when I was young and so were you And time stood still and love was all we knew You were the first, so was I We made love and then you cried Remember when Remember when we vowed the vows and walked the walk Gave our hearts, made the start, it was hard We lived and learned, life threw curves There was joy, there was hurt Remember when
Remember when old ones died and new were born And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged We came together, fell apart And broke each other's hearts Remember when
Remember when the sound of little feet was the music We danced to week to week Brought back the love, we found trust Vowed we'd never give up Remember when
Remember when thirty something seemed old Now lookin' back, it's just a steppin' stone To where we are, where we've been Said we'd do it all again Remember when
Remember when we said when we turned gray When the children grow up and move away We won't be sad, we'll be glad For all the life we've had And we'll remember when
Remember when Remember when
Oh he!!, just reading a little of it now has me all teary eyed and choked up. I need some Zeppelin or something quick.

I remember my parents dancing to this song when I was little. My dad was a pilot in the AF and gone alot. We played this song at my dad's funeral as it had so many memories for us kids. The song has been redone a few times since the 50's but I happen to like Jason Wade's version from the movie "Shrek" ------------------------------------------------ Song: You Belong to Me Lyrics
See the pyramids around the Nile Watch the sun rise From the tropic isle Just remember darling All the while You belong to me See the market place In old Algiers Send me photographs and souvenirs Just remember When a dream appears You belong to me
And I'll be so alone without you Maybe you'll be lonesome too
Fly the ocean In a silver plane See the jungle When it's wet with rain Just remember till You're home again You belong to me
Oh I'll be so alone without you Maybe you'll be lonesome too
Fly the ocean In a silver plane See the jungle When it's wet with rain Just remember till You're home again You belong to me

firemob1 - my STBXWH played that song for me right after he handed me the D papers ....huh...."I found the reason for me to change who I used to be...and the reason is you..."????? Yet he's not willing to change. Makes perfect sense. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
The only thing I can think of is that it was his way of making himself feel better. A mutual friend of ours told me what WH should have done was edit the song to play, "I'm not a perfect person" over and over again, because taht's all he really wanted me to hear, and just about the only part of the song that's true for him.

This one is SO perfect for several months ago:
How Far by Martina McBride
There's a boat, I could sail away There's the sky, I could catch a plane There's a train, there's the tracks I could leave and I could choose to not come back Oh, never come back
There you are, giving up the fight Here I am begging you to try Talk to me, let me in But you just put your wall back up again Oh, when's it gonna end
How far do I have to go to make you understand I wanna make this work so much it hurts, but I just can't Keep on giving, go on living with the way things are So I'm gonna walk away And it's up to you to say how far
There's a chance I could change my mind But I won't, not till you decide What you want, what you need Do you even care if I stay or leave Oh, what's it gonna be
How far do I have to go to make you understand I wanna make this work so much it hurts, but I just can't Keep on giving, go on living with the way things are So I'm gonna walk away And it's up to you to say how far
Out of this chair, or just across the room Halfway down the block or halfway to the moon
How far do I have to go to make you understand I wanna make this work so much it hurts, but I just can't Keep on giving, go on living with the way things are So I'm gonna walk away And it's up to you to say Yeah I'm gonna walk away And it's up to you to say how far How far
And this one is just plain perfect:
You'll Think Of Me by Keith Urban
I woke up early this morning around 4am With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms I've been tryin' my best to get along But that's OK There's nothing left to say, but
Take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and take your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me, you'll think of me
I went out driving trying to clear my head I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this And all the baggage that seems to still exist It seems the only blessing I have left to my name Is not knowing what we could have been What we should have been So
Take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and take your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me
Someday I'm gonna run across your mind Don't worry, I'll be fine I'm gonna be alright While you're sleeping with your pride Wishing I could hold you tight I'll be over you And on with my life
So take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me
So take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and all your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we got nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah
And you're gonna think of me Oh someday baby, someday

I've seen this question posted over and over:
Artist: Deana Carter Lyrics (Hope Floats) Song: What Makes You Stay?
Look at me I'm in a place I never thought I'd be
Don't have the strength To fight anymore Or a reason not to leave
So tell me why I still keep holding on To something I just cannot see
What makes you stay When your world falls apart What makes you try one more time When it's not in your heart At the end of your rope When you can't find any hope You still look at her and say I just can't walk away Tell me what makes you stay
I'm not afraid Of living alone I was alone before he came
I've been in love Many times before But this time's not the same
I've always been the first to say goodbye Now it's the last thing I can do
What makes you stay When your world falls apart What makes you try one more time When it's not in your heart At the end of your rope When you can't find any hope You still look at her and say I just can't walk away Tell me what makes you stay
When it goes this deep And feels this strong I can't convince myself That this love is wrong
What makes you stay When your world falls apart What makes you try one more time When it's not in your heart At the end of your rope When you can't find any hope You still look at her and say I just can't walk away Tell me what makes you stay
The Hope Floats CD is full of songs: Garth Brooks-To Make You Feel My Love Sheryl Crow-In Need The Rolling Stones-Honest I Do Bob Seger and Martina McBride-Chances Are The Mavericks-All I Get Gillian Welch-Paper Wings Jonell Mosser-Stop! In the Name of Love Whiskeytown-Wither, I'm a flower Deana Carter-What Makes You Stay Lila McCann-To Get Me to You Lyle Lovett-Smile Bryan Adams-When You Love Someone Trisha Yearwood-To Make You Feel My Love

I don't know if anyone has posted these ones before, but these are mine:
At first I was: Alisson Krauss - "Now that I Found You" (john macleod & tony macaulay/bmg songs, inc., ascap)
Baby, Now that I’ve found you I won’t let you go I built my world around you I need you so, Baby even though You don’t need me Now
Baby, Now that I’ve found you I won’t let you go I built my world around you I need you so Baby even though You don’t need me, You don’t need me oh, no
Baby, baby, When first we met I knew in this heart of mine
That you were someone I couldn’t forget. I said right, And abide my time
Spent my life looking For that somebody To make me feel like new Now you tell me that you want to leave me But darling, I just can’t let you
(guitar & fiddle solo)
Baby, baby, When first we met I knew in this heart of mine That you were someone I couldn’t forget. I said right, And abide my time
Spent my life looking For that somebody To make me feel like new Now you tell me that you want to leave me But darling, I just can’t let you
Now that I found you I built my world around you
I need you so, baby even though You don’t need me now
Baby, now that I’ve found you I won’t let you go I built my world around you I need you so Baby even though You don’t need me You don’t need me no, no Then it was: Duran Duran - "Ordinary World" Came in from a rainy Thursday On the avenue Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV And the radio Still I can't escape the ghost of you
What has happened to it all? Crazy, some are saying Where is the life that I recognize? Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive
Passion or coincidence Once prompted you to say "Pride will tear us both apart" Well now pride's gone out the window Cross the rooftops Run away Left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me? Crazy, some'd say Where is my friend when I need you most? Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive
Papers in the roadside Tell of suffering and greed Here today, forgot tomorrow Ooh, here besides the news Of holy war and holy need Ours is just a little sorrow It's all gone away
And I don't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive
Every one Is my world, I will learn to survive Any one Is my world, I will learn to survive Any one Is my world Every one Is my world
Now it's been: Garbage - "Special" I'm living without you I know all about you I have run you down into the ground Spread disease about you over town
I used to adore you I couldn't control you There was nothing that I wouldn't do To keep myself around and close to you
Do you have an opinion? A mind of your own? I thought you were special I thought you should know But I've run out of patience I couldn't care less
I... I...
Do you have an opinion? A mind of your own? I thought you were special I thought you should know
I used to amuse you I knew that I'd lose you Now you're here and begging for a chance But there's no way in hell I'd take you back
Do you have an opinion? A mind of your own? I thought you were special I thought you should know But I've run out of patience I've run out of comments I'm tired of the violence I couldn't care less
I'm looking for a new [4x]
We were the talk of the town [4x]
I thought you were special [4x]
Well, that without him wanting me back... I guess I'm still waiting for that. <small>[ September 23, 2004, 10:07 PM: Message edited by: ivoryivy ]</small>

I don't know if this has been posted earlier...this is a long thread.
But I would love to hear these words from my WS:
"The Reason" Hoobastank
I'm not a perfect person There's many things I wish I didn't do But I continue learning I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you It's something I must live with everyday And all the pain I put you through I wish that I could take it all away And be the one who catches all your tears Thats why i need you to hear
I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is You
I'm not a perfect person I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show A side of me you didn't know A reason for all that I do And the reason is you

Hi shul,
Wife liked this...so I thought I'd pass it along for your "compilation":
I Would've Loved You Anyway..Trisha Yearwood
If I had known the way this would end, If I had read the last page first, If I had had the strength to walk away, If had known how this would hurt,
I would've loved you anyway. I'd do it all the same, Not a second I would change, Not a touch that I would trade. Had I known my heart would break, I would've loved you anyway.
It's bittersweet to look back now At memories withered on the vine. And Just to hold you close to me For a moment in time.
I would've loved you anyway. I'd do it all the same, Not a second I would change, Not a touch that I would trade. Had I known my heart would break, I would've loved you anyway.
And even if I'd seen it coming, You'd still have seen me running Straight into your arms.
I would've loved you anyway. I'd do it all the same. Not a second I would change, Not a touch I would trade. Had I known my heart would break, I would've loved you anyway. I would've loved you anyway.
