I was 19.
We were laying in the bed of his truck, looking at the stars and talking about life.
It was a November Friday night, and we were cuddled under blankets trying to stay warm.
The radio was playing through his window,
and I remember thinking it was the most romantic night of my life.
He then grabbed my hand, pulled me out of the bed of his truck...
and we danced...
under the stars...
in my driveway.
When was the last time I thought of that moment?
It's probably been years.
But that's why I just love music.
You hear a song, and it instantly takes you back to the past.
One minute you're grading papers listening to Pandora,
and the next, you're back in that moment....
under the stars....
dancing away with my heart.
I can still feel my head on your shoulder,
and hoping that song would never be over.
I haven't seen you in ages.
Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are,
For me you'll always be 18.
And beautiful...
and dancing away with my heart.
I love that I'm not the only person who went on a trip down memory lane when listening to this song.
I read the comments below the video I linked, and so many people had the same experience.
Sometimes it hurts to go down memory lane because of a song...
but other times....
well, other times, the songs just remind you of where you came from,
how you got to where you are,
and where it is you are currently headed.
