I am Sober

I loved this song around 6-7 years ago. I don't think a young person now would even know it. But today, I remembered it.

Girl meets boy, girl goes crazy
Boy looks away, she gets her heart broken
No words are spoken
Boy comes back and acts
As if everything is cool
Soon she's got him back on a pedestal
She only sees what she wants to see
Love is blind, love is so misleading

(CHORUS)
I see the light, oh what a light
And I am sober
All that you served to me
No longer will I drink it in
I took the time to think it over
I see the you that I never knew
Now it's finally sinking in
I am sober

Girl wakes up and smells the coffee one day
Realizes she's on her own again
All alone again
Boy takes every opportunity
To play on every insecurity
Get her back on track
She's in a daze, back in the fire
But will she cave into her old desires

It holds entirely new meaning for me today. I don't think it will ever mean anything else.

How tiring to be disappointed.

Great blog! Love your spunk girl. I have more than a few years on you (grown kids and all) but a newbie in the blogosphere and pretty much ALL of technology - I'm learning! I will follow your blog and pop in to see how you are doing. Maybe if you need a change of pace or cyber hugs you can come to my little corner of the world. Suzen

HI Suzen! Thanks for the complement and for checking out my site. Please pop by any time. I hope I keep the "spunk" going. I would appreciate any advice you can give as I plod along through this journey called motherhood. It's tough at times but rewarding all the time.
