My wonderful MM introduced me to Norah Jones shortly after he and I met (No, I wasn't living in an igloo in Alaska with no electricity the last year or so...LOL)

The song "Come Away With Me" is "OUR" song, and he bought me the cd for Christmas...

Her new CD recently came out, he wouldn't "ALLOW" me to buy it for myself, he made me wait a week until we were together so HE could buy it and we could listen to it together...

(ok, y'all can say awwwwwww, now...LOL)

Anyway, I was listening to it, and one of the songs on it SO hit home...I thought I'd share the words with my new-found friends on this list...It's called "What Am I to You", and written by Norah Jones. The words are just so poignant for those of us involved in an "A" (hey I'm getting the lingo, too...)

What Am I to You

~by Norah Jones

What am I to you

Tell me darling true

To me you are the sea

Vast as you can be

And deep the shade of blue

When you're feeling low

To whom else do you go

See I cry if you hurt

I'd give you my last shirt

Because I love you so

If my sky should fall

Would you even call

Opened up my heart

I never want to part

I'm giving you the ball

When I look in your eyes

I can feel the butterflies

I love you when you're blue

Tell me darlin true

What am I to you

Yah well if my sky should fall

Would you even call

Opened up my heart

Never want to part

I'm giving you the ball

When I look in your eyes

I can feel the butterflies

Could you find a love in me

Could you carve me in a tree

Don't fill my heart with lies

I will you love when you're blue

Tell me darlin true

What am I to you

What am I to you

What am I to you

Oh my gosh...talk about memories...

In a past life (one which I tend to forget about) I was involved with a great guy, who unfortunately was married...

(I am now, too, and I have no regrets about either...well too many...)

I haven't thought about Jack for ages, though, and this thread, although I began the thread with my new MM in mind, made me flashback to the first one...

I was waitressing, and this very sexy man and I had been flirting around...we had CROAK-me there, and usually a very good crowd for it...

Jack never sang, but he was part of a crowd that was always there singing on those nights, so I wasn't too surprised to hear the Kroak-me guy call him to the stage...

He couldn't dedicate it to me, but after he sang (croaked?) he came up to me and whispered..."That was for YOU, baby..."

The song?

WILD THING...by the Troggs...

memmmmmmmmmmmriesssssssssss.........

That has me wondering where he is now...

Just have to say that I bought the new norah jones for both myself and my guy.

and that song struck me the same way.

Lately I have been listening to some older stuff.. Gregg Allmann, has some really sexy bluesy songs.. Music is a big part of my realtionship with my guy...

Here is “our” song it is from 3 Doors Down.. It seems to fit so well during the time of NC we have ever so often because of her DH's schedule.

3 Doors Down "HERE WITH OUT YOU"

A hundred days had made me older since the last time that I saw your pretty face

A thousand lights had made me colder and I don’t think I can look at this the same

But all the miles had separate

They disappeared now when I’m dreaming of your face

I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams

And tonight it’s only you and me

The miles just keep rolling as the people either way to say hello

I hear this life is overrated but I hope it gets better as we go

I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams

And tonight girl it’s only you and me

Everything I know, and anywhere I go

it gets hard but it won’t take away my love

And when the last one falls, when it’s all said and done

it get hard but it won’t take away my love

I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams

And tonight girl it’s only you and me

I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams

but tonight girl it’s only you and me

Partnr, that's one of ours, too...

Anytime I hear a song that I think fits, I go find the words online and send them to him...

He can be so romantic...

Another good song.... "Obvious" by Christina Aguilera. And the newest one by Carole King " I Didn't Want to Fall In Love". Both of these are describe my emotions towards, for and about OM.

No time to type lyrics but you can get them off their respective sites.

This is my current favorite song for my MM....it sums everything up. I so love this man! Hope you all enjoy the words. The song is by Josh Groban and it's on his "Closer" CD.

WHEN YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME

Like the sound of silence calling,

I hear your voice and suddenly

I’m falling, lost in a dream.

Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,

You say those words and my heart stops beating.

I wonder what it means.

What could it be that comes over me?

At times I can’t move.

At times I can hardly breath.

When you say you love me,

The world goes still, so still and silent.

When you say you love me,

For a moment, there’s no one else alive.

You’re the one I’ve always thought of.

I don’t know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.

You’re where I belong.

And when you’re with me if I close my eyes,

There are times I swear I feel like I can fly

For a moment in time.

Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth ,

And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.

When you say you love me

The world goes still, so still and silent.

When you say you love me

For a moment there’s no one else alive.



And this journey that we’re on.

How far we’ve come and I celebrate every moment.

And when you say you love me,

That’s all you have to say.

I’ll always feel this way.

When you say you love me

The world goes still, so still and silent.

When you say you love me

In that moment I know why I’m alive.

When you say you love me.

When you say you love me.

Do you know how I love you?
