American Honey.

Many, or most, of you will be familiar with the song 'American Honey' by Lady A.  I've always loved it.  Always have I enjoyed it.  I remember belting it out when they opened for Tim McGraw a couple summers ago. I have heard and I have enjoyed this song.  But never have I listened.

I love this song.  I have it on repeat everywhere I go.  I'm obsessed.  I was with Daulton on Sunday night and one of our friends, Jill, sang it to us.  Not only does Jill have a phenomenal voice, but I really listened to the song for the first time.  I've been hooked ever since.

I know it's silly, but do you ever hear a song and think to yourself "That's ME."  I did with this song.  I play the guitar so I was all grumpy that I wasn't clever enough to think of the song myself.  However, the point being, I feel like that song showed my soul.

There is a part where it says:
Steady as a preacher
Free as a weed
Couldn't wait to get goin'
But wasn't quite ready to leave
So innocent, pure and sweet
American Honey

It catches my breath EVERY time.  On the reals, this is ME.  I've always felt like I have had roots tying me down and that I am a home-body. On the contrary, I believe I am a free spirit.  I see things differently and I love to fly. 

 I've always wanted to "get goin'".  I have always gone mock shnell and never stopped.  I'm the girl who 'has it all together'.  Yet I find myself becoming an adult and I'm just not ready..  

I love this song.  It is simply ME.  I wanted to share that with my fellow bloggers.  

Photo Compliments of SD... ME!!!! :)
