Music is my Therapy

Song: Love Me When I Don't Artist: Pentatonix When all my sanity's gone The demons are strong I put you through hell You know me too well And you bring me home Cause you always know How to love me when I don't When I'm too hard on myself I don't ask for help When I'm not okay I push you away But you pull me close Cause you always know How to love me when I don't I hear the voice in my head getting way too loud I got the weight of the world trying to take me down I'm out here walking the edge I lost my grip on reality that gets to me Your problems I got 'em No need to worry you won't hit the bottom So love me like you do If I forget how to When all my sanity's gone The demons are strong I put you through hell You know me too well And you bring me home Cause you always know How to love me when I don't When I'm too hard on myself I don't ask for help When I'm not okay I push you away But you pull me close Cause you always know ...

Song: I Loved Her First Artist: Heartland Closing out the Month of Love Songs Challenge with this super sweet daddy-daughter love song 😌 If I ever get married and dance with my dad at the reception, I think I would want to do it to this song. Thinking about that moment, where my dad would hand me off to another man, has always made me really emotional. I wouldn't say I'm a "daddy's girl" in fact, my dad and I have had an interesting relationship over the years (and I wouldn't say we're necessarily in a "great place" right now). But I love my dad and he's been a wonderful father, protector and provider. He's helped and supported me a lot, despite many set backs and challenges. I know I can always count on him. I hope to improve my relationship with him. Even though it's not ideal (right now) I know we still love and care for one another and I know he's always there for me. I appreciate him more than I could ever express. I know ...

Song: It Girl Artist: Jason Derulo  Guilty pleasure song right here! Jason Derulo is kinda vain (why does he start every song with his name? Haha, you know what I mean " JASON DERULO!! " 😂) but his old-school songs (aka 2010 songs...sad those are considered "old school" now...that makes me feel older than I already do...which is ancient! 👵) were always my "guilty pleasures." Mainly because his music is a bit more sexual and provocative than I was used to, especially at that age/time in my life! Aw, the innocence of youth! AN-EE-WAY 😳 This is one of his "sweeter"/more innocent love songs (excuse the language 🙄 I'll probably have an edited version below) and has always been one of my favorites! I can't wait to be somebody's "It girl!"  I've been looking under rocks and breaking locks Just tryna find ya I've been like a maniac insomniac, Five steps behind ya Tell them other girls, they can hit the exit Check pleas...

Song: She's In Love With The Boy Artist: Trisha Yearwood My sisters and I were OBSESSED with this song growing up!! It's a total love-song classic in my heart and I can't believe it's taken me this long to share it with the world! It's such a good one! Aw, unrequited love! 😍 My favorite! Katie's sittin' on the old front porch Watchin' the chickens peck the ground There ain't a whole lot goin' on tonight In this one-horse town Over yonder comin' up the road In a beat-up Chevy truck Her boyfriend Tommy, he's layin' on the horn Splashin' through the mud and the muck Her daddy says he ain't worth a lick When it comes to brains, he got the short end of the stick But Katie's young and man, she just don't care She'd follow Tommy anywhere She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy And even if they have to run away She's gonna marry that boy someday Katie and Tommy a...

Song: Ain't Too Proud to Beg Artist: The Temptations Love this song!💕 I hope my future guy will love me enough to check his pride at the door and do whatever it takes to win me over!  I know you wanna leave me, But I refuse to let you go If I have to beg and plead for your sympathy, I don't mind coz' you mean that much to me Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin Please don't leave me girl, don't you go Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby Please don't leave me, girl, don't you go Now I heard a cryin' man, Is half a man with no sense of pride But if I have to cry to keep you, I don't mind weepin' if it'll keep you by my side Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darlin Please don't leave me girl, don't you go Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby Please don't leave me girl, don't you go If I have to sleep on your doorstep All night and day just to keep you from walkin' away Let your friends laugh, even this I can stand...

Song: No One Needs To Know Artist: Shania Twain This song is me when I meet my future hubby!😍 I'm going to fall so hard so fast and start making big plans right away...but he doesn't need to know that I'm crazy (at least so soon)! 😆 I love this song! Am I dreamin' or stupid? I think I've been hit by Cupid But no one needs to know right now I met a tall, dark and handsome man And I've been busy makin' big plans But no one needs to know right now I got my heart set, my feet wet And he don't even know it yet But no one needs to know right now I'll tell him someday some way somehow But I'm gonna keep it a secret for now I want bells to ring, a choir to sing The white dress the guests the cake the car the whole darn thing But no one needs to know right now I'll tell him someday some way somehow But I'm gonna keep it a secret for now We'll have a little girl a little boy A little Benji we call Leroy But no one needs to know right now And...

Song: Bulletproofangel Artist: Goo Goo Dolls Gotta give some Goo Goo Dolls love this month! Can you believe we have less than a week left of February/Love Month?? It's gone by so fast! This song may not seem like the traditional love song at first, but I find it romantic in almost a sad kind of way. 💔 It's always made think of the movie/book A Walk to Remember . There's just something so sweet with an underlying feeling sadness which is exactly what that movie (& book) is in a nutshell! 😭 I've always thought this song was beautiful. It's been a while since I've last heard it so this is going to be fun for me, in a bittersweet sort of way! I see her every morning In the middle of the street. The "suits" don't even notice, They're staring at their feet. She hears a secret choir That sings for me and you. You know I don't believe her But I say I hear them too. Angel, You're bulletproof, You're so high, You see the truth. And I...

Song: Everyday (Wedding Song) Artist: Hanson Isaac Hanson wrote this song for his wife and then performed it for her on their wedding day! 💓😍😭 Isn't that the sweetest thing EVER!? They released the song on their 2020 Member's EP Continental Breakfast (In Bed). I haven't listened to this EP a ton so I'm not as familiar with most of the songs (my favorite track is All You Know . I shared it as one of my "28" songs ... check it out ! It's beautiful!) but I knew I had to share this one this month because it's so sweet and romantic! Ike is such a softie with the biggest heart! 💗 Love that guy! And the music video is the CUTEST!! 😍 Hello, my love It's been a while since we danced, I know And no single word Could do justice to the one I hold 'Cause even through my worst of days You've been here for me always My love, you will be Everyday And you can lean, lean on me I won't let go And I will lead, lead you home Just walk with me Everyd...

Song: If I Had Eyes Artist: Jack Johnson Good vibes for the weekend!✌ This song is just presh 😊 Love me a sweet Jack Johnson love song! They make me so happy! 💜 If I had eyes in the back of my head I would have told you that You looked good As I walked away If you could've tried to trust the hand that fed You would've never been hungry But you never really be The more of this or less of this or is there any difference Or are we just holding onto the things we don't have anymore Sometimes time doesn't heal No not at all Just stand still While we fall In or out of love again I doubt I'm gonna win you back When you got eyes like that It won't let me in Always looking out Lot of people spend their time just floating We were victims together but lonely You got hungry eyes that just can't look forward Can't give them enough but we just can't start over Building with bent nails we're Falling but holding, I don't wanna take up anymore of your tim...

Song: One More Chance Artist: Michael Jackson  I realized that for every year I have posted a song on this day, it's been a Michael Jackson song! And since I have yet to pay tribute to the KING this month (or even year! ) I decided to carry on the February 19th MJ tradition!  This song is soulful, sexy & romantic! 😘 Beautiful lyrics, beautiful voice, beautiful song! Winner, winner chicken dinner!! Looooove it! 🖤🖤 Uh, huh, alright. This time, Gonna do my best to make it right. Can't go on without you by my side. Hold on. Shelter, Come and rescue me out of this storm. And out of this cold I need someone. Oh, why? Oh, why? Why? Why? If you see her, tell her this from me. All I need is One more chance at love. One more chance at love. One more. One more chance at love. One more chance at love. See. One more. One more chance at love. One more chance at love. One more. One more chance at love. Alright. One more chance at love. Searching For that one who is gonna make me who...

Song: Too Much Heaven Artist: Bee Gees I discovered this song thanks to the awesome band Hanson and their awesome cover below: ANGELIC! 😍👼 Their harmonies are EVERYTHING aren't they? The original version is so 70's prom I can barely even handle it 😂 But, despite the major cheesiness... I like it. I'm such a sucker for love songs, not matter how cheesy or sappy or ridiculous! I'll melt at just about anything these days! Feeling desperate much?? Nobody gets too much heaven no more It's much harder to come by I'm waiting in line Nobody gets too much love anymore It's as high as a mountain And harder to climb Oh you and me girl Got a lot of love in store And it flows through you And it flows through me And I love you so much more Than my life.. I can see beyond forever Ev'rything we are will never die Loving's such a beautiful thing Oh you make my world.. a summer day Are you just a dream to fade away Nobody gets too much heaven no more It's muc...

Song: This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) Artist: Natalie Cole This song is 😍😍 I always associate this song with the 1998  Parent Trap film because it plays at the end of the movie and I watched that movie a lot growing up, haha. We also owned the soundtrack so we listened to it a lot too ... man, that soundtrack was full of great music! L-O-V-E , There She Goes , Do You Believe in Magic , Here Comes the Sun , Top of the World , Bad to the Bone and this song of course!   It's so fun, upbeat, romantic and adorable and I would love it to be played at my someday, hypothetical wedding! 💕👰 Oooh..... This will be an everlasting love This will be the one I've waited for This will be the first time anyone has loved me I'm so glad you found me in time And I'm so glad that you rectified my mind This will be an everlasting love for me Loving you is some kind of wonderful Because you showed me just how much you care You've given me the thrill of a lifetime And made me bel...

Song: I'm a Believer Artist: Smash Mouth Shrek   anyone? haha. Was this song already a song before  Shrek  or written for the movie?? 🤷 Probably the first. But it's now gone down in history as the "love theme" from  Shrek  😂 Either way, it's a fun, romantic, lovey-dovey, love song! Can't wait for this to happen to me one day!! 🤞🤞💕 I thought love was Only true in fairy tales Meant for someone else But not for me Love was out to get me That's the way it seems Disappointment haunted All my dreams And then I saw her face Now I'm a believer And not a trace Of doubt in my mind I'm in love I'm a believer I couldn't leave her If I tried I thought love was more or less a given thing But the more I gave the less I got, oh yeah What's the use in trying? All you get is pain When I wanted sunshine I got rain And then I saw her face Now I'm a believer And not a trace Of doubt in my mind I'm in love I'm a believer I couldn't leav...

Song: Accidentally in Love Artist: Counting Crows THROWBAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!! I just love this song! That's all. It's fun, catchy, upbeat, hopeful, positive, happy and so sugary sweet!! Just like that "strawberry ice cream" 😉🍓🍨 If ya know, ya know! So she said what's the problem baby What's the problem I don't know Well maybe I'm in love (love) Think about it every time I think about it Can't stop thinking 'bout it How much longer will it take to cure this Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love) Makes me wanna turn around and face me But I don't know nothing 'bout love Come on, come on Turn a little faster Come on, come on The world will follow after Come on, come on Because everybody's after love So I said I'm a snowball running Running down into the spring that's coming all this love Melting under blue skies Belting out sunlight Shimmering love Well baby I surrender To the strawberry ice cream N...

💝💘HAPPY LOVE DAY!!💋🥰 Today has been such a sweet Valentine's 💕 I was even gifted flowers 🌹 (by someone outside of my family!! No, it wasn't from a handsome young man but still, I really appreciated getting flowers on Valentine's Day! )! I've gotten to spend time with my family (technology is such a blessing! 🙏). I laughed so hard I peed myself a little bit 😂😂 Literally 😬 I fell to the ground, practically rolling with laughter 😂😜 It felt good to feel so happy and carefree!  Song: This is How We Know Artist: Steve Green I love that Valentine's Day was on a Sunday this year. The perfect day to reflect on perfect love . I love my Savior Jesus Christ and all that He does for me and my family. I am so blessed! I feel so much peace and joy right now in my heart and I am so grateful for that good feeling. I'm so grateful to still have my sweet little Valentine with me for yet another year - my dog. He brings me such immense joy and companionship. This ...

Song: Same Girl Artist: Jack Johnson I ADORE this simple little love song!! 😍💕 It is SO romantic and beautiful to me!! The melody is stunning and Jack's voice EXCELS on this one - especially the chorus - my favorite part! I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!! 💕💕 Confession: I secretly dream of one day having this song serenaded/dedicated to me 😳😘💓 I have no more words (or secret cofessions), just give it a listen!  If you could read my mind You'd say baby you're right And I don't wanna fight anymore You're usually righter than I am And I'm not a very good fighter Am I, well neither are you So let's be through with this one Cause some things never change I know you're still my same girl Who builds her own frames For the pictures that she paints The lights of Monterey Come in across the bay Right back to my same girl Hmmm hmmm hmmmm Hmmm hmmmm hmmmmm hmm How can you be so calm when the truth is sometimes Living in the eye of the storm With everything ...

Song: Love Me When I Don't Artist: Pentatonix PSA: Pentatonix's *BRAND NEW ALBUM*   The Lucky Ones   dropped today and you gotta check it out!! 🙌🥰 12 ALL-ORIGINAL songs! Listen to their first single Happy Now here ! It's been a theme song to my 28th year!  As I mentioned above, PTX's new album came out today and I have already listened to this song ( Love Me When I Don't ) at least 5 times now! It was the song I was most looking forward to hearing after listening to a little sample clip. Needless to say, it did not disappoint! The lyrics in this song are EVERYTHING! They make me tear up a little, they're so real and relatable.😢 Ugh! I love it so, so, SO MUCH! 💗🤍 I wish I could dedicate this song to a partner .... but I can't ... yet. So as of now, I want to dedicate this song to my family. The people who know how to "love me when I don't" which is all.of.the.dang.time. I don't even know how I got so lucky and deserving of them. I h...

Song: Head Over Feet Artist: From, Jagged Little Pill (originally by Alanis Morissette) Discovered this version of this song months ago and was OB-SESSED!! It's such a cool cover! I love the harmonies at the beginning of the song, they sound so good! It's from a new musical (based on Alanis Morissette's album Jagged Little Pill )  that I will NEVER see (not only because I'm not super familiar with much of her music or the album but because the play's content is a little "too much" for my taste) but I like the song (the original and this version). The idea of falling "head over feet" in love with someone is a dream! 💘 Check out the original version first... I had no choice but to hear you You stated your case time and again I thought about it You treat me like I'm a princess I'm not used to liking that You ask how my day was You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surp...

Song: That Thing You Do! Artist: The Wonders from, That Thing You Do! I LOVE this song!!!💕 I watched this movie at one point during this loooooooong time of quarantine and have been jamming to this song ever since! It's just FUN! It's upbeat and ridiculously catchy! I hope it brings you as much joy as it's brought me over these past several months! You Doing that thing you do Breaking my heart into a million pieces Like you always do And you Don't mean to be cruel You never even knew about the heartache I've been going through Well, I try and try to forget you, girl But it's just so hard to do Every time you do that thing you do I know all the games you play And I'm gonna find a way to let you know that You'll be mine someday 'Cause we Could be happy, can't you see? If you'd only let me be the one to hold you And keep you here with me 'Cause I try and try to forget you, girl But it's just so hard to do Every time you do that thin...
