Month of Love Songs Challenge Day 9
Song: What I Never Knew I Always Wanted
Artist: Carrie Underwood
This song is adorable!! And I'm looking at it in two different ways today.
First off, today is the birthday of someone who is very near and dear to my heart. I've known this little one for 9 years. I've been there pretty much since the beginning of their life. I have loved them dearly these past 9 years. Although I don't get to see them as often as I would like to anymore, they are still a big part of my life and heart. I am so grateful the opportunity to meet fell into my lap nine years ago around this time. I am so grateful I took it. I am so grateful for the experiences and the memories I have made with them. Happy Birthday little one! I love you so much! You were someone and something "I never knew I always wanted" in my life!
Secondly, I dedicate this song to my unborn children and future spouse. Even though I already know it is the biggest and deepest desire of my heart to have a family, I don't know them yet. I don't know who my husband will be. What he will be like, what he will look like (if I will ever have one). But when (and if) I meet him, I will know he's the one I've waited for but will never have known everything I will give up for him. Does that make sense? And to my future children, I've heard that people experience a whole different kind of love they never knew existed when they have a baby. I'm hoping that will be my experience when (and if) I ever get to be a mother. Ugh. I know I'm not saying any of this right! I can't seem to get my brain to understand and write the feelings that are in my heart.
Never was the kind to think about dressing in white
Wasn't waiting on a prince to come riding into my life
Thought I was happy on my own
'Til you came and proved me wrong
I finally found what I never knew I always wanted
I couldn't see; I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
I didn't know there was a hole
Something missing in my soul
'Til you filled it up with your love, yeah
Never pictured myself singing lullabies
Sitting in a rocking chair in the middle of the night
In the quiet, in the dark
You're stealing every bit of my heart with your daddy's eyes
What a sweet surprise
And now I'm holdin' what I never knew I always wanted
I couldn't see; I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
I didn't know there was a hole
Something missing in my soul
'Til you filled it up, oh, with your love
Life has a way of showing you just what you need
And who you were made to be, yeah
I finally found what I never knew I always wanted
I couldn't see; I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
I didn't know there was a hole
Something missing in my soul
'Til you filled it up with your love
Yeah, you filled it up with your love, yeah
I never was the kind to think about dressing in white
I never pictured myself singing lullabies
