I'm one of those people who really focuses in and pays attention to song lyrics and what they mean. I guess that's one reason why I love music so much - I can relate to most any song in one way or another.
I have heard the following song many times on cd, played at wedding, live in concert and I've always loved it. I've related to it in the past because it reminded me of one of my dearest friends, Brittany Spaulding and how much she loved and wanted to live life. I loved it because it says things that I know related to her life here on earth as well as her life now in Heaven. It's one of those songs that transcends the barrier between life here and life beyond.
I heard it for about the 1,000th time this morning on the way to work - and I realized that while it will always remind me of Britt, I now relate to it in a completely new and beautiful way. Every word is exactly what any mother would want for their child - and it perfectly describes everything that I want for Baby Sac, now and forever.
MY WISH
~Rascal Flatts~
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you're faced with the choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walkin' til you find the window
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
But more than anything, more than anything
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish
I hope you never look back but you never forget
All the ones who love you and the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get
Oh, you'd find God's grace in every mistake
And always give more than you take
But more than anything, yeah more than anything
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish, yeah yeah
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish.
