Our Song- Plain White T's

I heard this song for the first time today during my prep period. It was actually the first song that came onto Pandora when I sat down after lunch.  


It instantly reminded me of something I was told recently. No matter how nice some place is, and how long you live there, it doesn't mean that place is home. Some places are never home. 


And I was reminded of why I retired from my traveling job. I missed people too much. After five years of it, I realized the thrill I got from the airports wasn't worth the loneliness of the hotels. 


It isn't Music Monday, but this song touched me.

Plain White T’s – Our Song Lyrics
Sitting on this white bed its not the right bed, cause its not our bed
All alone in this hotel room, feels like a hell room, cause its not our room
I try to watch some TV, but its not easy, cause your not near me
I’m just feeling lonely I wanna go home
So if you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song cause its our song
Trying to kill all my time all day and night time until its our time
If I had it my way I’d be on the highway straight to our driveway

I cant wait until I see you and get to feel you and kiss the real you
You know I need you, I wanna go home
So if you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song cause its our song
I close my eyes (I close my eyes)
And there you are
Turn off the light (turn off the light)
And there you are
And in my dreams (and in my dreams)
We dance and sing to each other all night long and this is our song
I just want to make you happy
So come and grab me and love me madly
I want you so badly… I’m coming home
So if you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song
If you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song
Its the don’t give up without a fight song
Its an everything is alright song… cause its our song
