Newcomer...

Not sure if anybody has heard this song... but to me, it describes exactly what I felt after leaving my addict bf.... And said exactly what I needed to hear. I'll copy the link to the song, but also will include the lyrics... I hope other people find it as appropriate as I do...

When you Love Someone Like That
By LeAnn Rimes and Reba McEntire

YouTube - "When you love someone like that"

Verse 1:
LeAnn
I think it was me, it must of been me,
I guess I did something wrong.
I tried too hard, wanted too much,
I guess that's why he's gone.
I lost my pride, I fought and cried.
I felt like a little kid.
What's wrong with me?
I still can't believe, I did the things I did.

~Bridge One~
I couldn't change him, he was gonna break my heart.
I saw it coming, yeah, I knew it from the start. But,

Chorus:
When you love (when you love)
When you love someone like that, when you give what you can't take back.
When you love (when you love)
With all your heart and soul, it's so hard to let it go.
When you love someone like that.
Yea, when you love someone like that.

Verse 2:
Reba
Girl it ain't right, it just ain't right.
Don't tell yourself that it was you.
You followed your heart, you gave it your best.
There's nothing more you can do.
Guys like him are like the wind, and you know it's just too bad.
They blow in and out again, and never know what they had.

~Bridge 2~
Girl, I can tell you, he'll do the same to someone else.
It ain't about you, so don't be so hard on yourself. 'Cause,

Chorus:
When you love (when you love)
When you love someone like that, when you give what you can't take back.
When you love (when you love)
With all your heart and soul, it's so hard to let it go.
When you love someone like that.(when you love someone like that)
Ohh, when you love someone like that.

~Bridge 3~
Reba: Oh we've all loved and lost, it's happened to us all.

LeAnn: I hear what you're sayin' but I feel like the only one.

Reba: You might feel that but you're not.
You're alright (I'm alright) you're okay (I'm okay)
You're (I'm) gonna make it anyway.

When you love someone like that. (when you love someone like that)
When you love (when you love)
With all your heart and soul, it's so hard to let it go.
When you love (when you love)
when you love someone like that (when you love someone like that), when you give what you can't take back.
When you love (when you love)
with all your heart and soul, it's so hard to let it go.

Reba: When you love someone like that.
LeAnn: When you love someone like that.
Reba: When you love someone like that.
LeAnn: When you love someone like that.
You're alright (I'm alright), You,re okay (I'm okay)
When you love someone like that (when you love)

It's a pretty song, a sad lovesong, but it doesn't have to have a sad ending for the singer. Hope she's still singing when she meets the fella who sees all the good things in her and treats her like the queen she is

Thanks for sharing the song and I hope you get a "happy ever after" verse too.

Hugs
