"Every Time"

Nothing more I love than a song like this.  Speaking of disappearing country stars, where did Jessica Andrews disappear to?  I can envision Carrie Underwood & Jessica Andrews fighting over Hillary Lindsey songs and then getting the #1 & #2 position on the charts.  Yeah, I'm that obsessed but sorry, no one on this Earth writes songs like this.

At this stage, I feel like some people really try to get into the music industry for all of the wrong reasons.  Well, I want to get into it to make people feel the way I do about songs.  To change people's lives the way mine has been.  Everything about this song inspires me, from this amazing story that goes back and forth between creating a memory, reliving it, and the reality in between.  Every line of this song continues this story, not one line is in here without a purpose.  How come more people don't know about this song?!

 Leave me comments, let me know what you think!

Song: "Every Time"


I laid the blanket there on the shorelineAnd saw the water shine with the moonWhat kind of fool would fail to noticeThe best thing shining was you
Oh, I laughed kinda nervous, I felt you move closerAnd felt the world unwindOnce was a stranger, not quite a loverBut steadily crossing the line
Carry me far away, don't hold backI won't break, leave the ghosts behindAll I know, wrong or right just the thought of this nightWill get me every time, every time
Well, the voice in my head said, "What are you doing?"I thought not listening to youYou see I, I'm taking a chanceI'm thinking about flying over the blue
And it's crazy to be this out of practiceAnd have it all come so naturallyDon't you love knocking logic right off its axisAnd watch it float far out to sea
Carry me far away, don't hold backI won't break, leave the ghosts behindAll I know, wrong or right just the thought of this nightWill get me every time, every timeEvery time, every time, every time
So now here I am reading my fortuneIn the winding lines of your handOh, and I see a lost unwanted orphanHead right for the promised landCarry me far away, I won't, I won't break
Oh, carry me far away, don't hold backI won't break, leave the ghosts behindAll I know, wrong or right just the thought of this nightWill get me every time, will get me every time, every time

"Feels So Real"

"I’m as bad as an old washing machine, 

Spinnin’ ‘round but I never get clean"

Sometimes, I wonder why I even second guess myself because 99.9% of the time my gut instinct is right.  I have this crazy, insane, chilling connection with songs that I will spend the rest of my life trying to figure out why.  I saw Eden's Edge on the Grand Ole Opry and was blown away.  There's something about these voices that feel so fresh, yet like I've heard them for the past 19 years.  Needless to say, I think there's something incredible here.  Anyways, I just listened to their EP previews and this is the only song that stuck out to me.  The title alone could be taken a million different ways.  Then, I listened to the full song and quite possibly one of my favorite lines/verses I have ever heard.  Well, after I heard 30 seconds of pure magic, I giggled and thought these newbies couldn't possibly have gotten their hands on a piece of Hillary Lindsey written treasure.  So...of course, I took to google, and my answer was right in front of me.       But thats all I really had to do was listen to the rest of the song and I would've heard the brilliance of 'painted shut heart', the glass shatters, "Oh the outside I'm not leather yet."  Like, come on?  Only one person could've possibly written that.

Song: Feels So Real

It was two years ago and it was yesterday
Might not make sense but that’s just the way it feels to me
I’m as bad as an old washing machine
Spinnin’ ‘round but I never get clean
Don’t you see

Cause baby you’re gone but you’re like the wind
Out of the calm you come back again
Rattling the windows of my painted shut heart
Feels so real

Inside I still got this breaking in my chest
Don’t feel like flesh, it feels like glass
And glass shatters

Oh outside I’m not leather yet
But these days I’m tougher than I ever thought I’d get
Or ever wanna be, and the heart of the matter

Is baby you’re gone but you’re like the wind
Out of the calm you come back again
Rattling the windows of my painted shut heart
Feels so real, feels so real

Pullin’ down Jupiter, would be much easier
Swimming in the sky that would be a breeze
Than finding a magic cure, help me remember
You’re nothing but a memory

Baby you’re gone but you’re like the wind
Out of the calm you come back again
Rattling the windows of my painted shut heart
Feels so real, feels so real
It was two years ago and it was yesterday
Oh it feels so real, oh
Might not make sense but that’s just the way it feels to me
