"Let The Wind Chase You"

If you've never experienced the 365 Days of Country Music, you've already let life pass you by and unfortunately this blog may be your last bit of hope for experiencing music.  That blog changed my life.  Thanks to the brilliance of Meesa Hayes, who has the most exquisite musical taste in all of life, I have been exposed to the best of the best.  So much so that I was inspired to start this blog.  Although I have been a lifelong Trisha Yearwood fan, somehow, some way, I have never heard this song until I found her amazing blog.  This song has made me want to be a songwriter that much more.  The brilliance in this song makes my heart race, it's just that good.

I think the hardest decision someone will ever make is the war between holding on and letting go.  That moment of realization that you just can't try any more has to be the biggest disappointment but also the biggest relief; and that is exactly what I feel when I hear this song.  I feel like I'm an emotional mess after this song and that's why I love it.  Like blowing a dandelion into the wind, she just lets him go in this song.  Ahh close your eyes and listen to your heart break.

Song: "Let The Wind Chase You"

Like a wildwood flower
Doesn’t have to reach for the sun
And when it needs a drop of water
It doesn’t have to ask the rain to come

I don’t wanna work for your love
I don’t wanna try to be
Something that you’re looking for
You’re never gonna find in me

So let the wind chase you
I can’t do it anymore
Let the road run after you
Like I always did before
Let the stars catch your eye
‘Cause I’ve tried and tried and tried
And I won’t do
So let the wind chase you

No one says a diamond ain’t precious
Just because it hasn’t yet been found
And no one blames the moon for not shining
Just because it’s hidden by a cloud

I don’t wanna blame myself
Thinking that I’m not enough
And wonder what’s wrong with me
Because I couldn’t win your love

So let the wind chase you
I can’t do it anymore
Let the road run after you
Like I always did before
Let the stars catch your eye
‘Cause I’ve tried and tried and tried
And I won’t do
So let the wind chase you


I don’t wanna work for your love
I don’t wanna try to be
Something that you’re looking for
You’re never gonna find in me

So let the wind chase you
I can’t do it anymore
Let the road run after you
Like I always did before
Let the stars catch your eye
‘Cause I’ve tried and tried and tried
And I won’t do
So let the wind chase you, mmhmm
Let the wind (let the wind)
Chase you
