Comfort Tunes

I've always been amazed at how certain songs are released at the most apropos time. I wish that I had started making a list of the songs that meant a lot to me at certain times of my life. While I don't remember them, I do remember thinking, "God, this is just how I feel."

The country group Sugarland has a couple of songs out that are totally about my life right now. Though I'm sure a LOT of people could easily relate. As a cop out for an entry and because I'm too lazy to come up with anything else, here are the words to the most recent Comfort Tune.

Just Might Make Me Believe

Got miles of trouble spreadin' far and wide
Bills on the table gettin' higher and higher
They just keep on comin', there aint no end in sight
I'm just holding on tight...
I've got someone who loves me more then words can say
And I'm thankful for that each and every day
And if I count all my blessings, I get a smile on my face
Still its hard to find faith.

Chorus:
But if you can look in my eyes
And tell me we'll be alright
If you promise never to leave
You just might make me believe

Its just day to day tryin' to make ends meet
What I'd give for an address out on easy street
I need a deep margarita to help me unwind
Leave my troubles behind...

Repeat Chorus

I used to believe in us
When times got tough
Lately I'm afraid that even love is not enough

Chorus:
But if you can look in my eyes
And tell me we'll be alright
If you promise never to leave you just might make
Oh, you just might make me
You just might make me believe
