So Close Yet So Far

"What Hurts the Most" - Rascal Flatts

How I wish I could've seen them play. This weekend would've been so perfect if only things worked out as planned. But...they never really do, do they? I can't help, but think that out of all the events that happened in the last half a decade, after all the "experiences" and hard-to-get tickets, after all the things that could've gone wrong, but didn't...the one and only event that would've been just for me, just couldn't happen, could it?

Although the gesture was thoughtful and the intentions, sincere...timing was everything. It just so happened that the singer got sick. It just so happened that the venue was outside so they didn't want to take any chances. And it just so happened that their rescheduled event date is when I'll be somewhere else, somewhere far, somewhere where I just can't be in two places at the same time.

This is what hurts the most. I was so close, but with everything that's happened who's to blame? Things just happen...And I'm once again, heartbroken.



Lyrics:

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then
And just let them out

I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while even though goin' on
With you gone still upsets me

There are days
Every now and again I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

It's hard to deal with the pain
Of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it

It's hard to force that smile when I
See our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder

Gettin' up, gettin' dressed
Livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over

I would trade, give away all the words
That I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while even though goin' on
With you gone still upsets me

There are days
Every now and again
I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

Broken

"Paradise" - Coldplay It took a while for this song to affect me, but I guess a windy drive home through an obstacle course of devastating proportions and the sudden panic of having a "State of Emergency" warning flash within my quiet hometown can change things. A lot. I didn't sleep a single minute last night. Although this isn't anything new, it's new to me to want to sleep and not get it. It was unbelievably frightening to be alone in my room with the nite-lite busted and the wind at full speed...even worse when half the roof over my head flew to the ground with a thunderous thud bringing the rest of the sleepless city to its feet. We've seen the Santa Ana winds, but never at this magnitude. It moved cars and busted windows. It rattled fences and ripped gates apart. It knocked over trashcans and picked up patio furniture like it weighed nothing. In the morning when the dust settled just enough for the hazy sun to bring some light to the mayhem, w

Soul Mates

"Once Upon A Dream" - Sleeping Beauty How funny it is that even after all these years and how far we've come with animation, this classic Disney cartoon still grabs me. Yes, I know it's silly, but it's a silly I grew up with and can't help but fall for... I know the story is so far fetched: a 16 year old girl (that looks more like a 21 year old) with gold of sunshine in her hair and lips that would shame the red, red rose sings high up in the mountain tops and suddenly attracts the man of her dreams; her soul mate! (who by golly is the prince that she has been betrothed to since she was a baby!). Unbelievable. So it's all fairytale crap, but so what? I'm not into it because of the romance! To tell you the truth, I don't even like Aurora all that much, the spoiled lil' brat. I mean, she's beautiful in EVERY way, finds out she's a princess and is going to marry into royalty on top of her royalty! I can't really sympathize... Seriousl

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.
