The Ride of Our Lives

I said it once, I said it twice, I said it three times and I have to say it again. Has a song every captured your heart so obsessively that you write a blog about it every single time you hear it?

I gave love one more last time
Not what I expected, it was true perfection
Still I wasn’t sure you fit my rhyme
Like a poets letter streaming words together forever
Then you gave me life through a precious little girl
She changed my focus and helped me notice
That that’s what love is

I wanted it
You wanted it
We had to see
What this felt like
We wanted it
Once we got to it
We had a peek
Spending way more time
Somehow this feeling
Is kinda splendid
Once we start
We shifted into overdrive
What we both wanted
Now we both on it
The ride of our lives

I knew from the first glance, I was frozen
Fresh like a photo car on the show floor
Staring at perfection, gone in 60 seconds
Instant upgrade with this affection
As the passion rose like a speedometer
On the dashboard, I put my petal to the floor
I put it right there, and I floated right through your front door
That’s what the seat belt is for

I wanted it
You wanted it
We had to see
What this felt like
We wanted it
Once we got to it
We had a peek
Spending way more time
Somehow this feeling
Is kinda splendid
Once we start
We shifted into overdrive
What we both wanted
Now we both on it
The ride of our lives

Let’s take it to the next level
You made me rearrange my life for you
We never knew how special
And I know that’s it worth it, I know that it’s worth it
This life’s so incredible
Cuz I see the same look in that little girl’s eyes
We both make it work
We’re gonna make it work

Cuz I’ve earned the right to say this time

- Jon B.

This song makes me remember who I am and what I want and what my life is about. It re-centers me and helps me to find myself again. I can't explain it. It's like my light is dimmed. Certain parts of me are suppressed. My values and desires are compromised. And then, all of a sudden, I hear the twinkling intro and I remember who I am. This song is everything I want and has every sentiment I've ever dreamed of having in my life as a woman. It touches me over and over and over again. 

Love
Romance
Sweetness
Tenderness
Family
Children
Passion
Connection
Soul mate
Special
Femininity
Partnership
Companionship
Chemistry
Desire
Harmony

I feel all of this and more. This song means everything to me because it represents everything I ever wanted my life to be.
