What song reminds you of your significant other?

[CountryWolf07]

For me, when I hear this song, "Guys like Me" by Eric Church, it makes me think of Mike. Everything in that song is exactly the type of guy he is.

Here are the lyrics:

I wear a greasy ball cap
I like my shirt untucked
I spend saturdays working on my truck
I don't like to fight
But I ain't scared to bleed
Most don't mess with a guy like me
Guys like me drink to many beers on friday after work
Our best blue jeans have skoal rings
We wear our boots to church
So rough around the edges
It's hard to believe that girls like you
Love guys like me

Your daddy worked at the bank
Mine worked on cars
You went to college
I pulled graveyard
You must have had your pick
Of all the trust fund types
But you came back to me and only god knows why
Guys like me drink too many beers on Friday after work
Our best blue jeans have skoal rings
We wear our boots to church
So rough around the edges
It's hard to believe that girls like you
Love guys like me

Now theres a lot of guys like me out there
In a lot of little towns
And tellin' all our buddies, we won't ever settle down
We say thats just the way we are and the way we'll always be
So God sends girls like you for guys like me
Thank God theres girls like you, for guys like me..

Here's the chorus of Uncle Crackers Follow Me...

Follow me, and
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

this line...
"You won't find nobody else like me"

Hubby used to tell me that when we were dating. Was he ever right.


This Billy Joel song always makes me think of him also.

Friday night I crashed your party
Saturday I said i'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
I was only having fun
Wasn't hurting any one
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change

I've been stranded in the combat zone
I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
And you told me not to drive
But I made it home alone
So you said that only proves that i'm insane

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
Turn out the light
Don,t try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right

Remember how i found you there
Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes untill you smiled
You were lonely for a man
I said take me as i am
Cause you might enjoy some madness for a while

Now think of all the years you tried to
Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you say
If i'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn"t want me any other way

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
It's too late to fight
It's too late to change me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
Turn out the light
Don,t try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right

Have you listened to the rest of that song?? I love the song, but if you pay attention to all the lyrics, it's a guy talking about a married woman he's seeing...

I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
Cause as long as no one knows
Then nobody can care
You're feelin' guilty
And I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed
And baby I'm not scared

The other sentiments are nice though....

Here's the chorus of Uncle Crackers Follow Me...

Follow me, and
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

this line...
"You won't find nobody else like me"

Hubby used to tell me that when we were dating. Was he ever right.

[Catty1]

The Beatles:

"You say goodbye, and I say hello.
Hello, hello?
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello."

[jennielynn1970]

Dated a guy once who ended up being one of my best friends (has since passed away from a motorcycle crash), but The Joker by the Steve Miller band still makes me smile when I hear it. It was so him, lol, and his attitude exactly.

Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun.
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my loving on the run Wooo Woooo

One of the other guys I dated used to sing the song "Fill me up Buttercup" to me, but he always said "FEEL me up Buttercup" when he sang the refrain. He was such a perv!

[chocolatepuppy]

Have you listened to the rest of that song?? I love the song, but if you pay attention to all the lyrics, it's a guy talking about a married woman he's seeing...

Ha ha! Yes, I know, that's why I didn't include the rest. Not to worry, we've been married 31 years.

Two other ones: I am only posting the parts..

"What a Beautiful Mess" by Diamond Rio:

This morning put salt in my coffee
I put my shoes on the wrong feet
I’m loosen my mind
I swear, it might be the death of me
But I don’t care.

What a beautiful mess, what a beautiful mess
I’m in spending all my time with you
There’s nothing else I’d rather do
What a sweet addiction that I’m caught up in
Cause I can’t get enough
Can’t stop the hunger for your love
What a beautiful mess
What a beautiful mess I’m in.

Is it your eyes, is it your smile
All I know is that your driven me wild.

What a beautiful mess, what a beautiful mess
I’m in spending all my time with you
There’s nothing else I’d rather do
What a sweet addiction that I’m caught up in
Cause I can’t get enough
Can’t stop the hunger for your love
What a beautiful mess
What a beautiful mess I’m in..

and

"Time Well Wasted" by Brad Paisley:

Those leaves were a foot deep in the yard
And 'wash me' was written all over the car
But watchin' movies all day with you
Wasn't on my list of things to do
But we laid on that couch
Girl, we never left the house.

It was time well wasted
And there's no way I trade a few more things
That I could've crossed off my list
For a day I'll never forget
No, I didn't get a thing done
But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'
And I count it all as time well wasted..

Those songs explain how I REALLY feel about him, and when I'm around him... 100% all of it.

[cmayer31]

An ex, but oh well.

Happy memories it's Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight

It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me Do I look alright
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you

It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

And the rest of the time :
Linkin Park- Dont Stay

Sometimes I
Need to remember just to breathe
Sometimes I
Need you to stay away from me
Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need you to go

Chorus:
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
(Just give me myself back and)
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
(Just give me myself back and)
Don't stay

Sometimes I
Feel like I trusted you too well
Sometimes I
Just feel like screaming at myself
Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need to be alone

Chorus

I don't need you anymore
I don't want to be ignored
I don't need one more day
Of you wasting me away
I don't need you anymore
I don't want to be ignored
I don't need one more day
Of you wasting me away

Chorus

With no apologies

[crow_noir]

Good thread!

I had hoped that I'd find someone that would match this song... and i did. *happy sigh*

My Baby Loves Me

Don't need no copy of Vogue magazine
Don't need to dress like no beauty queen
High heels or sneakers he don't give a damn
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am

He never tells me I'm not good enough
Just give me unconditional love
He loves me tender and he loves me mad
He loves me silly and he loves me sad

(CHORUS)
He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart
He likes my nerve and he loves my heart
He's always sayin' he's my biggest fan
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am

And when there's dark clouds in my eyes
He just sits back and lets 'em roll on by
I come in like a lion and go out like a lamb
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am

(CHORUS)
He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart
He likes my nerve and he loves my heart
Don't see no reason to change my plan
My baby loves me just the way that I am
My baby loves me just the way that I am

[kittycats_delight]

wow...never even thought about it. The one song I hear that reminds me immediately of hubby is 'Caro Amore' by Fabrizio de André probably cause it was the first song he ever sent me to listen to. Another would be Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls as we spent 2 years trying to be together. He was in Italy and I in Canada. We seen each other only 2 times in those 2 years and it was a difficult time. Also Bring Me To Life by Evanescence because when I realized my feelings for him it was like a rebirth. I had not felt anything quite so intense before him.

Iris - Goo Goo Dolls

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

(break and solo)

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am


Bring Me To Life - Evanescence

how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where I’ve become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become

now that I know what I’m without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become

Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become

(Bring me to life)
I’ve been living a lie, there’s nothing inside
(Bring me to life)

[Rachel]

This is the the first one that comes to mind for me. It was done by The Judds. I'll have to listen to it again. I thought there were more verses than are listed here.

Love Is Alive
Words and Music by Kent Robbins

Love ain't a candle
It doesn't burn for one night
And need the dark to shine
Love is alive

And love ain't just a word
In every dictionary
With no where defined
Love is a man and he's mine

(Chorus)

Love is alive
And at breakfast table
Everyday of the week
Love is alive
And it grows everyday and night
Even in our sleep
Love is alive
And it's made a happy woman out of me
Oh love is alive
And here by me

Love ain't just a rule
A distant far away dream
That needs the night to rise
Love is alive
And love ain't just a song
Sweet words of music
To go dancin' by
Love is a man and he's mine

(Repeat Chorus)

Love is alive, here by me

[DJFyrewolf36]

There are a few techno songs with lyrics that remind me of my hubby, but Im not sure if its because of the words themselves or the special moments associated with them.

That Billy Joel song reminds me a lot of my hubby too lol. He maybe crazy but to me thats just perfect

Back in Black (1980)
You Shook Me All Night Long

She was a fast machine
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
She had the sightless eyes
Telling me no lies
Knockin' me out with those American thighs
Taking more than her share
Had me fighting for air
She told me to come but I was already there

'Cause the walls start shaking
The earth was quaking
My mind was aching
And we were making it and you -

Shook me all night long

Working double time
On the seduction line
She was one of a kind, she's just mine all mine
She wanted no applause
Just another course
Made a meal out of me and came back for more
Had to cool me down
To take another round
Now I'm back in the ring to take another swing

'Cause the walls were shaking
The earth was quaking
My mind was aching
And we were making it and you -

Shook me all night long

[Laura's Babies]

The one "Before I grow to old" reminds me of my ex...

I wanna go out dancing, every night
and see all the pretty lights, I wanna do
everything sliver and gold and I got to hurry up
before I grow to old!

(that is all I rememebr of it)

I use to sing it to him all the time... he acted like a old man in his 30's....

[moosmom]

I don't have an SO. The song, "Take A Chance" reminds me so much of my beloved Dad, who would've turned 80 years old on October 12th.

It's by Peter, Paul & Mary and it's from their Lifelines album:

Theres a little girl playing in the garden
She thinks that shes alone and no one sees
But the beauty of it all
As the daisy petals fall
Is the wish shes made thats whispered in the breeze
Theres the wish in the breeze

Chorus:

Wont you take the chance
And let your tears start falling
And ignore the fearful warning of your mind
Let your heart for once do all the talking
And believe that you deserve for the sun to shine
Believe that you deserve for the sun to shine

Theres an old woman sitting in the doorway
And she greets the people each one as they pass
Sometimes they hover round her for her wisdom
Sometimes so shell remind them how to laugh
They know that shell remind them how to laugh

Chorus

Now on a hill there stands a cross above a graveyard
And the simple word carved in it says forgive
No war or killing anger can match the force it carries
It can heal the generations so that other ones can live
It can heal us, so we can live

Chorus

Now theres a moment between forward and retreating
When youre just not sure which path you ought to choose
Then the sun shines brightly on the golden meadow
And suddenly, youre not at all confused
Suddenly, youre not confused

Thats when you take the chance
And let your tears start falling
And ignore the fearful warnings of your mind
And you let your heart for once do all the talking
And believe that you deserve for the sun to shine
You always did deserve for the sun to shine
I love you, and I want the sun to shine.
