Today, my head is here:

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor
Reachin' for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

Another shot of whiskey can't stop looking at the door
Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

woah woaaah.

Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothin' at all
It's a quarter after one I'm all alone and I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

I just need you now

Ooo, baby, I need you now


Everyone who knows me realizes I'm not a country music fan. Lady Antebellum is, by my standards just that, even if other people want to categorize it differently. All the same, I'm a lyric freak, and musically, this one hit me really hard. Lyrically, my heart stopped.

155th Post.

Check it.

This is one that hits me hard. For once, it's not about lyrics. This is rare, I realize, but the guitar and I have conversation every time I hear this. It's electrifying. All 6:00 minutes have somehow entered into my bloodstream and run through my body and I'm suddenly in a different state of existence like nothing i've ever experienced. I swear there are times I can feel the music pulsating through my body. There's the feeling where music moves you, and then there's the time when the music is inside you. This, is the latter. I feel this way with few songs, and it doesn't happen every time. It's sporadic-in the worst way possible. It's a complete out of body experience where I feel only the music in the deepest meditative state. It's better than goosebumps from the music. It's a high I will not give up.

Music lovers beware, I have a very intimate connection with my tunes.
