There's something cathartic about sitting here listening to the first real thunderstorm this year, rain hitting the windows, lightning in the sky, and darkness in the house that makes me want to pour my heart into this blog. I just want my sad songs, now. Bring on the ballads. When I think of amazing songs, I only think of one songwriter. And if you have read any of my other posts thus far, you probably know who that is...Hillary Lindsey. Well, this gem is hidden in Jessica Andrew's Now album from 2003. World, put yourself in this song and think of the clouds releasing rain and missing the love of your life like windows on a train.

Song: "Windows On A Train"
It felt like just a moment
The way they never last
Where were you going’
That you had to leave so fast
We were supposed to wake up
One day when we were older
Holdin’ on forever
But we flew past each other
Like windows on a train
The flashing of a frame
I can’t hold on but I can’t let go
A snapshot in my mind
Of a love that’s stuck in time
I saw it slip away
Windows on a train
I’m not sure what happened
But here I am alone
Tryin’ to find a way
To find a reason that you’re gone
I don’t know if I’m shakin’
From the rhythm of these wheels
Or if its my heart breakin’
And this is how it feels, This is how it feels
Like windows on a train
The flashing of a frame
I can’t hold on but I can’t let go
A snapshot in my mind
Of a love that’s stuck in time
I saw it slip away
Windows on a train
I’m on my way to kneel down with the truth
With my black dress on to say goodbye to you
Like windows on a train
The flashing of a frame
I can’t hold on but I can’t let go
A snapshot in my mind
Of a love that’s stuck in time
I saw it slip away
Windows on a train
