Till I Can Make it on My Own

Till I can make it on my own – Martina McBride

I'll need time
To get you off my mind
I may sometimes bother you
Try to be in touch with you
Even ask too much of you
From time to time

Now and then
Lord ya know I'm gonna need a friend
Til I get used to losing you
Let me keep on using you
Til I can make it on my own
I'll get by
But no matter how I try
There'll be times you know I'll call
Chances are my tears will fall
And I'll have no pride at all
From time to time
But they say
Oh there'll be a brighter day
But til then I'll lean on you
That's all I mean to do
Til I can make it on my own
Surely someday I'll wake up and see the mornin sun
Without another lonely night behind me
Then I'll know I'm over you and all my cryin's done
No more hurtin memories to find me
But til then
Lord ya know I'm gonna need a friend
Til I get used to losing you
Let me keep on using you
Til I can make it on my own

Words to a song yet hits so close to home …. That’s what my blast have been in recent days and it is pretty sad no doubt about it but I figured I would change it tonight to something more uplifting or inspiring. Blasts may change, as day into night, but the fact remains……..

Surely someday I'll look up & see the morning sun, Without another lonely night behind me, Then I'll know I'm over you & all my cryin's done, No more hurtin' memories can find me.

Like me everyone wishes for that. But sometimes you wonder if you really want to be over someone seeing what they brought into your life especially when that person brings a sense of security in your life, a meaning, something to look forward too. When you’ve lost someone or you think you’ve lost someone there seems to be that sense of void, emptiness and you attempt to find ways to fill it – through denial, through creating a world where you know you will be safe, doing things to get them off your mind but you know at the end of the day, you just keep coming back to them. A love so deep does that to people. Maybe someday the sun will shine, the void will be filled but till then ……………………….
