Ann Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I know there are different things that we consider to be an inspiration to us and I have to share something that has really been making me think. George Strait has a new song The Breath You Take and I love the words, so I wanted to share them with you. He looks up from second base dad’s up in the stands He saw the hit, the run, the slide there ain’t no bigger fan In the parking lot after the game he said “Dad I thought you had a plane to catch” He smiled and said “Yeah son I did” Chours Life’s not the breaths you take The breathing in and out That gets you through the day Ain’t what it’s all about Ya just might miss the point Try’n to win the race Life’s not the breaths you take But the moments that take your breath away Fast forward fifteen years And a thousand miles away Boy’s built a life he’s got a wife And a baby due today He hears a voice saying “I made it son He said “I told you dad you didn’t have to come” He smiles and says ”Yeah I know you did” Chours Just like it took my breath when she was born Just like it took my breath away when dad took his last that morn Life’s not the breaths you take The breathing in and out That gets you through the day Ain’t what it’s all about Ya just might miss the point If ya don’t slow down the pace Life’s not the breaths you take But the moments that take your breath away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annette Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Wow - goosebumps just reading it. I haven't heard that one yet and I really like King George.....probably another one of those songs you cry about everytime you ear it. Good tears, the cleansing ones.
