This song haunts me. I think it is so fitting.


I'm so tired of being here.
Suppressed by all my childhood fears.
And if you have to leave,
I wish that you would just leave.
Cause your presence still lingers here,
and it won't leave me alone.

I wish that you would just leave.
Cause your presence still lingers here,
and it won't leave me alone.
These wounds won't seem to heal,
this pain is just too real,
there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears.
I held your hand through all of these years.
But you still have...
All of me.
You used to captivate me by your resonating mind,
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind.
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice has chased away all the sanity in me.
These wounds won't seem to heal,
this pain is just too real,
there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears.
I held your hand through all of these years.
But you still have...
All of me.
I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone.
But though you're still with me,
I've been alone all along.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears.
I held your hand through all of these years.
But you still have...
All of me.

I wish my H would write this to me or have this revelation.

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 that catches all your tears
That's 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
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
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,

I am so sorry. I feel those words. I wish they would wipe our tears. Anyhow you have invested so much more time in yours. But me, it seems I am on my third bad relationship. First: three years, Second, ten years, This one, three years. Total of 16 years with men who made me cry.

Oh Genia, I am so sorry. That is a long time to be hurt by people. You can look at it in a positive light, you realized that each time that it was bad and got out. That is a good thing. Plus you tried each time to make it work, that too is a very good thing, no one can blame you.

Why do we let them do that to us? I struggle with that everyday. Why do I let him do this to me? Why can't I control my own life? I used to be so strong when I was younger, what happened to me?

He just called me about an issue with the house. He asked what I wanted to do with our front walk, in light of how irresponsible the contractors are being and in light of last night. I said, if we can just have them finish the back and not do the front, I think that would be best. Then he proceeded to apologize for being an [censored] last night. Still no mention that he is wrong. He also asked if we could be decent to each other during all of this. That cracks me up. He wants me to treat him decent if we file for a D but I guess I don't get that same consideration if we stayed married. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> God, I am just so mad <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

Hi LuvMyFamily,

who sings the 2nd song? I heard it on the radio the other day and the lyrics sounded familiar and I realized it was this one. H didn't know who it was either and he listens to the radio much more than me.

I told him he had to get it for me and if we renewed our vows this year we should use that song.

so anyway....blah blah blah....do you know who sings it?

I wanted to mention that i had told my H about this song (the 2nd one, The Reason) but he hadn't really heard of it.

While we were camping last month, H finally heard it on his own, when I wasn't w/ him. He came back and told me that it was like that guy was IN his head.....it was everything he thinks.

Now whenever we hear it he says, here's our song!

Sweet hanh? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

AWWWWW!!!!!!

This is ours - since the d-days, of course. It's by Enrique Iglesis.

Would you dance
If I asked you to dance?
Would you run
And never look back?
Would you cry
If you saw me crying?
Would you save my soul, tonight?

Would you tremble
If I touched your lips?
Would you laugh?
Oh.. please tell me this.
Now would you die
For the one you loved?
Hold me in your arms, tonight.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.

Would you swear
That you'll always be mine?
Or would you lie?
Would you run and hide?
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care...
You're here tonight.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.

Oh.. I just want to hold you.
I just want to hold you.
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
Well I don't care...
You're here tonight.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by your forever.
And you can take my breath away.

I can be your hero.
I can kiss away the pain.
And I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.
You can take my breath away.

I can be your hero.
