Do YOU have a song that gives you chills?

Have you ever heard a song that hits so close to home that it gives you chills every time you hear it?

Here are a few lyrics from a song by Ekoostik Hookah called "Another You." It really gets to me every time I hear it because I've had the same thoughts myself after everything I've gone through with my ex-husband. Now I'm with someone who treats me like gold.

I said "I don't deserve your anger,"
she said I don't deserve her love,
I said "I'll give you everything,"
she said that wouldn't be enough.

It's been six years since I've seen her,
at least a thousand miles between,
and my new lady's just as kind to me
as the old one was ever mean.

And I don't care that she's gone
and if I ever see her face,
I'll say "I can't believe I begged for you,
you know it seems like such a waste."

But then she did get one thing right,
there was only one thing left to do.
So now here I am,
a different man,
in another time, another place,
with another you.

That's only a few verses of the song, but you get the general idea.....

You betcha Alli-Gal! I love the Beatles song In My Life. Always have loved it. I remember the first time I heard it. It was on the show Thirty Something!!! I was an early twenty something at the time.

In My Life

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed,
Some forever, not for better,
Some have gone and some remain.
All these places had their moments,
With lovers and friends I still can recall,
Some are dead and some are living,
In my life I’ve loved them all.

But of all these friends and lovers,
There is no one compared with you,
And these mem’ries lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new.
Though I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before,
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more.

And so on......

Yes I have tons!! Music has always had a major impact on me. Here are three that just about kill me every time I hear them:


"Hello It's Me"
- written by Todd Rundgren
- background vocals - Stevie Nicks

Hello, it's me I've thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
There's something here that doesn't last too long
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine

Seeing you
Or seeing anything as much as I do you
I take for granted that you're always there
I take for granted that you just don't care
Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through

It's important to me that you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change for me

Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should




"The Lovers That Never Were"
-Paul McCartney

I Have Always Needed Somebody Girl,
But I Close The Doors To Keep Out The World.
But For You, I Would Be Here All Alone,
Locked In A Photograph.
All Of The Clocks Have Run Down.
Lover Beware.
We'll Be The Lovers That Never Were.
I Hang Patiently On Every Word You Send.
Will We Ever Be Much More Than Just Friends?
As For You, You Sit There Playing This Game,
You Keep Me Waiting
When All Of The Clocks Have Run Down,
All Over The World.
We'll Be The Lovers That Never Were.

For As Long As The Sun Shines In Somebody's Eyes,
I Believe In You Baby, So Don't Tell Me Lies.
For As Long As The Trees Throw Down Blossoms And Leaves,
I Know There Will Be A Parade Of Unpainted Dreams.

And I Know Dear, How Much It's Going To Hurt
If You Still Refuse To Get Your Hands Dirty.
So You, You Must Tell Me Something,...I Love You,
Say Goodbye Or Anything.
All Of The Clocks Have Run Down.
Time's At An End.
If We Can't Be Lovers We'll Never Be Friends.

For As Long As The Sun Shines In Somebody's Eyes,
I Believe In You Baby, So Don't Tell Me Lies.
For As Long As The Trees Throw Down Blossoms And Leaves,
I Know There Will Be A Parade Of Unpainted Dreams.



"Only Love"
-Wynonna Judd

I have sailed a boat or two
Out on the wild blue
Yonder to dreams that rarely come true
As far as I can see
From the island of green
I can put my trust in just one thing

And only love sails straight from the harbor
And only love will lead us to the other shore
Out of all the flags I've flown
One flies high and stands alone
Only love

Peaceful waters, raging sea
It's all the same to me
I can close my eyes and still be free
When the waves come crashing down
And the thunder rolls around
I can feel my feet on solid ground

I No what U all mean. There are 2 songs that get me but they are in spanish. The english translation doesn't do it justice.
#1. is "There are some eyes"

There are some eyes which if they looked at me
Make my soul tremble with love
There are some eyes so exquisite
Prettier eyes I have ever seen.

Oh!, who could look at himself/herself in them
Oh!, who could kiss them more
enyouing always their sparkle
And never ever forgetting them.

And everyone says that I don't love you
That I don't adore you with frenzy
And I tell them that they lie, they lie
That I would even give my life for you.

#2 Is the one I love the most. After I married Brent my mom said that this is the song my dad sang to her when they were dating.

"Two little trees"
Two little trees have been born on my ranch
Two little trees that look like twins
And from my house I see them all alone
Under the holy protection and light from the heavens.

They are never separated, one from the other
Because that is how god wanted for the two of them to be born,
And with their own branches they caress each other
As if they were sweethearts who loved each other,

Little tree, little tree, under your shade
I'm going to wait until the end of this tiring day,
And when I'm all alone looking to the sky
I'm going to ask Heaven to send me a companion.

Little tree, little tree, I feel alone I want you to accompany me until I die.

Like I said they sound way better in spanish.
