Smile For Those of Us Who Want To Let Go

If you don't all know by now, I am addicted to music! I love the stories the songs tell. I thought this song was uplifting to those of us who are trying to let go or detach from our loved ones.

"Better In Time"
by: Leona Lewis

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gonna be OK

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that's the path
I believe in
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gonna be OK

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

OMG! I SO LOVE THIS SONG!!

I CRANK IT in my car at LEAST once a day....
I bought the album because I love bleeding heart,
but when I heard THIS song, it hit me...

It reminded me of my past few years to a T.

Kind of eerie how similar our stories are with loved
ones
and some of ours were with drugs.
This song reminded me so much of meth, and
what it was to me. Since things are so different and
so good for me now, I can so relate to so much in this
song, but I still remember how hard it was to leave
what was once my best friend....

In another forum I am on, on my signature I have,


I'm gonna smile cause I deserve too...


Thanks for this post, 8 I'm glad someone else likes
this song like I do!! LOL

Here's the song if anyone wants to here it.

Finding Serenity this part of the song,
Made me cry when I first heard it,
It was so my relationship with meth,
it gave me chills.

It's time I let you go

It'll all get better in time

I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

I'm a HUGE MUSIC FREAK as well, lol. Always have been. Bleeding love was my favorite for a LONG TIME. It's kinda how I feel about my BF now though. I never thought I would love again and then he cut me open and the love just won't stop. Everyone is trying to pull me away from him
I've seen both videos. She's talented!!

Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen (THAT WAS ME!!!!)Ooooh...

But something happened (THEN I MET MY BF)For the very first time with you
My heart melted into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking 'round
Thinking I'm going crazy (NOW THIS IS ME!!)
Chorus:
But I don't care what they say (AND THIS IS HOW I FEEL SOMETIMES)
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Oooh, oooh...

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that their goal
Is to keep me from falling

Hey, yeah!

But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy
Maybe, maybe

Chorus:
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

WOW!! I forgot how much I LOVE this song, thanks!! I love Youtube, its great. I'm the kind of person that can listen to a country song, a hip-hop song, jazz and reggae all on the same cd, lol. I just really love music. It is my escape. Sometimes though, I find I need to get away from it when I am down because I end up listening to stuff like James Blunt who is amazing but his songs fuel my depression. That is where I have to be careful. Stay with the happy, upbeat stuff!
Thanks DoneWithIt!! Nice to know someone here loves music and can relate to it as I do
