#30in30: Ladies Love Lyrics, Special Edition

This edition of "Ladies Love Lyrics" is slightly different. I decided to step out of my r&B/Hip-Hop box for this pick. I do not know anything about the Rascal Flatts. Until I heard this song "Bless The Broken Road," I could not name one song by this group. I discovered this song on a random blog read. This song speaks to me on so many levels. It's a song about all the roads traveled that finally lead you to your one true love. I love everything about it. For me, music is the best when I can identify with it personally.

My favorite lines are "That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you." How dope is that? I know that I can be very biased when it comes to love songs because of where I am in my life. But, to be perfectly honest, I have always had a extremely soft spot for good love songs. "Bless The Broken Road" truly falls into that category for me. I could listen to this song forever. It's that good to me. The Rascal Flatts have a new found fan in me. I will be looking into more of their music. Listen and enjoy!

"I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

[Chorus]

Now I'm just rollin' home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you..."

Ladies Love Lyrics: Lady Antebellum "Need You Now"

Sometes I get songs stuck in my head. This time, it just happens to be a country song. It's not a new song but I'm still in love with it. I cannot stop singing this. Hope you guys are open to something different in my "Ladies Love Lyrics" section. I do love other genres of music as well. Enjoy.

"Picture perfect
memories scattered all around the floor
Reachin' for the phone
'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one,
I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but
I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do
without I just need you now

Another shot of whiskey
can't stop looking at the door
Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one,
I'm a little drunk and
I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but
I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothin' at all
It's a quarter after one I'm all alone and I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now
I just need you now (wait)
Ooo, baby, I need you now"
