Gotta Love Skillet...

I see you standing here
But you’re so far away
Starving for your attention
You don’t even know my name

You’re going through so much
But I know that I could be the one to hold you

Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold

I see you walking by
Your hair always hiding your face
I wonder why you’ve been hurting
I wish I had some way to say

You’re going through so much
Don’t you know that I will be the one to hold you

Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold

I’m stretching but you’re just out of reach
You should know
I’m ready when you’re ready for me
And I’m waiting for the right time
For the day I catch your eye
To let you know
That I’m yours to hold
I'm stretching but you're just out of reach
I'm ready when you're ready for me

Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold

Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold

I'm stretching but you're just out of reach
I'm ready when you're ready for me

Who Woulda Thought Enrique Could Be Deep?!

Do you know
Do you know

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

If birds flying south is a sign of changes
At least you can predict this every year.
Love, you never know the minute it ends
Suddenly I can’t get it to speak.
Maybe finding all the things it took to save us
I could fix the pain that bleeds inside of me.
Look in your eyes to see something about me
I’m standing on the edge and I don’t know what else to give.

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

How can I love you, How can I love you, How can I love you . . . .
If you just don’t talk to me, babe.

I flow through my act
This question is she needed
And decide all the man I can ever be.
Looking at the last 3 years like I did,
I could never see us ending like this.
Seeing your face no more on my pillow
Is a scene that’s never happened to me.
But after this episode I don’t see, you could never tell the next thing life could be

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

Do you know,
Do you know, Do you know....

A Sign

I just wish I could have a sign that I was wrong. Because I just can't make my heart believe it.

One Year

I can't believe you've been gone a year already, Lua Puppy. Actually, I take that back..... it has seemed like forever since I was lucky enough to have you in my life. I've been looking at pictures of you and remembering how loved you always made me feel. Every single day of your life, you made me feel like I was the most important person in yours. The simplest of acts, like coming home from work, was welcomed with enthusiam from you unlike any I've ever felt. I know I took it for granted when you were here. But if it means anything, I don't take it for granted anymore. There is nothing like feeling unconditional love. You always gave me that Lua Puppy. Thank you so much. Thank you so much for choosing me to be your mom. Because I know you did. I remember the day I came to look at you and your brothers and sisters. I wasn't even sure I was going to take home a puppy that day. But when you crawled up on my lap, and looked up at me, it was decided. You were going to my Lua Puppy, and I was going to be your mom. Thank you. You gave me the opportunity to love and care for the best dog God ever put on this Earth. I know how lucky that makes me.

I still have a very hard time not having you here. I would give anything to have you back here, healthy, again. Absolutely anything. But when I'm struggling my hardest, I just think about how much fun you are having in Heaven. I can just see you running through the clouds, with your tongue flailing outside of your mouth, looking for someone to give kisses to. I know my Grandma Broome is cooking you steak dinners every night- like my mom tells me. And Neal is probably making sure you don't make too big of messes anywhere, huh? = )

I love you so much Lua Puppy. So much. And I miss you more than anything. I can't wait until I get to feel your kisses and scratch you all over again. It's all I look forward to anymore.

I love you.
