"Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You" - Kelli Pickler (sung by Skylar Laine on American Idol)
Although I obviously have my favorite on the show, I can't help but fall for a little bit of Country. It gets me every time, but last night was a rough one for reasons that pulled me away from this sadly infected computer far too soon. It didn't give me a chance to write about Skylar introducing me to a song that strikes a very familiar chord in my heart that I wish would break off completely already. I'm taking a risk with this tonight. Not only by turning this God forsaken Internet back on, but also by showing my vulnerability for all to see once again. So, beyond the pop-ups and the spam I'm going to get this post up if it kills me. It's still fresh in my head and I need to rid my mind of it while I still can.
I'm trying to understand where I'm coming from here so forgive me if I can't focus on where you stand as I write this. I'm going to stumble, put my foot in my mouth, and hurt you unintentionally. There's the set-up. You've been warned, but know I'm keeping a promise to myself to blog without censorship. No, this is not another comparison because there's no comparison between you and them. There never was. My best friend said it beautifully today, "You're not comparing him to him to him, but there is a comparison with the relationships you've shared with each of them and it's what changed who you were to who you are now." And there's a lot of me that I'd like you to meet.
Thing is I wonder if you're still in love with the girl you knew years ago. The one who was used to breaking hearts before she really had hers broken. The one who was ready to settle down and have a family because she thought she was actually ready then. A bright and clueless spirit who felt there was plenty of time still ahead, but not enough direction to know what to do with it. The one who knew how to sleep through the night and rarely had any nightmares, but often got her head stuck up in the clouds to know what was going on in the real world.
Let me tell you that there's nothing wrong with this because at times I honestly wish for the kid in you to come out. The quirky, funny, laid back and not-so-caught up with deadlines kinda guy. The one who had just the right amount of confidence and modesty and hardly ever confused it with cocky. The one who liked to dance no matter where he's at and who didn't grow weary of the music that carries fond memories with every beat. The one who rarely drank, didn't smoke and appreciated the now to get to the later. Remember it was you who took your time. You, who said why rush into things at that moment when we had forever? Well, we still have our forever.
We just found each other again and no, we're not the same exact person. We left those lost kids behind over two decades ago to feel what it would feel like to be with other people. We had our experiences, made some mistakes, and even had a few unforgettable moments that shaped us to be much stronger and more independent on our own. So, let's give it a minute. Know that we're on this new road and although it may look familiar, we don't know where it'll lead to this time around. We're only taking a few steps and getting closer to finding out. We'll fall every once in a while as we've fallen now because falling is part of growing. As long as we keep walking we'll be alright. All I'm saying is that we never had a chance to be an official "WE," so let's finally get to do just that.
Lyrics:
I remember the way you made love to me
Like I was all you'd ever need
Did you change your mind
Well I didn't change mine
Now here I am trying to make sense of it all
We were best friends now we don't even talk
You broke my heart
Ripped my world apart
Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
Didn't you know how much I loved you
I can't get you out of my head
I still feel you in this bed
Left me all alone
You couldn't be more gone
From falling apart to fighting mad
From wanting you back to not giving a damn
I've felt it all
I've been to the wall
Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
Didn't you know how much I loved you
One day justice will come and find you
And I'll be right there in your memory to remind you
Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
I gave you everything, every part of me
