Chris Young - "The Shoebox"
The line about 'taking a picture with your father because one day he'll be gone' is kinda hard to listen to now that my dad is no longer here and I basically have no recent photos of him and certainly none of us together to remember him by. :(

"Don't Ask Me How I Know" is really tough. The line in the second verse is the biggest reason; "You oughta make that drive to say goodbye to your grandpa before he goes Don't ask me how I know" In April of 2007, me and my dad thought hard about going to visit my grandparents one afternoon but decided against it in the end. We said "we'll do it during the weekend." My grandpa past away from a fatal stroke the following day.

Sometimes I hate that I associate so much with "Standing Knee Deep in a River (Dying of Thirst)" by Kathy Mattea. My life is full of opportunities that were right in front of me, yet I didn't see them and take them on. And that's why I'm stuck in such a rut.
That said, it's still my favorite song of hers.

Lee Ann Womack - "Have You Seen That Girl"
Heard it for the first time in years a few days ago and I honestly felt like I got punched in the stomach.

Currently "In Case You Didn't Know" by Brett Young, but only the first verse and chorus before I realized that in the song he's already in a relationship with this girl and just can't express his emotions instead of my situation where I can't express my emotions to a girl that I'm not in a relationship with

I must ask, is it because she's in a relationship that you can't express your feeling or because you're just scared to?

I must ask, is it because she's in a relationship that you can't express your feeling or because you're just scared to? We've been really good friends for about 8 years and I'm just worried that if my feelings aren't reciprocated that it could hurt our friendship. She lives out of town and I'm seeing her this weekend so I'm attempting to muster up the courage to tell her but we'll see how that goes. Words are not my specialty when they come from my mouth (much better at expressing my ideas in written form, revising, and then submit them ) so just trying to figure out what to say and how to say it. But I think I've been in love with her for like 5 years so it's probably time I man up and tell her how I feel, lol.

You're lucky as hell compared to me though. My situation is way more complicated and has a smaller chance at success so I'm not going to go into it on this thread.
