The Soundtrack of My Life

Have you ever been struck by a particular song? There's something about the lyrics or melody that catch you, connects with you, and becomes your mantra for a day, a few weeks, or forever. My "song" came to me today as I was driving down the highway towards work. It was nothing particularly special - I'd heard the song at least a dozen times before, however I had never really understood the lyrics or grasped what they meant to my life.

So, before you know it, I'm crying in my car. But then again, most things make me cry. I've been struggling to put the words to my emotions for so long now, but Michael Buble did it perfectly. In perfect reproduction, I've put the lyrics to paper...just to read and sing when I need to remember what it is I've been fighting for.

Haven't Met You Yet

I'm not surprised, not everything lasts

I've broken my heart so many times I've stopped keeping track

Talk myself in, I've talked myself out

I get all worked up and then I let myself down

I've tried so very hard not to lose it

I've came up with a million excuses

I thought, I thought of every possibility

And I know some day it'll all turn out

You'll make me work, so we can work to work it out

And I promise you, kid, I give so much more than I get

I just haven't met you yet.

I might have to wait, I'll never give up

I guess it's half timing and the other half luck.

Wherever you are, whenever it's right

You'll come out of nowhere and into my life

And I know that we can be so amazing

And baby, your love is going to change me

And now I can see every possibility

They say all's fair

In love and war

But I won't have to fight it

We'll get it right and we'll be united

And I know we can be so amazing

And being in your life is going to change me

And now I can see every possibility

And someday I know it'll all turn out

And I'll work to work it out

And I promise you, kid, that I give so much more than I get

Than I get, than I get, than I get

Someday I know it'll all turn out

And you'll make me work so we can work to work it out

And I promise you kid that I give so much more than I get

I just haven't met you yet...
