It's like hearing "your song" on the radio and getting that gut punch feeling. Hmmmm
I guess it makes sense that those thoughts will randomly pop in during the healing process...maybe even for longer.
I actually wrote a song recently with this similarity as a metaphor, so that the average listener will hear it as a breakup song, but I know what it means for me. Will post the lyrics when I get home tonight.
