If only...
If only I could be with someone I adore. He means the world to me. And he was never an asshole. I miss having him in my life. At least he was honest. So...fuck distance.
I love country music. I grew up with it and have a few songs tonight that express the emotions I'm dealing with right now.

Paint Me A Birmingham
Tracy LawrenceHe was sittin’ there, his brush in hand Paintin’ waves as they danced upon the sand With every stroke, he brought to life The deep blue of the ocean against the mornin’ sky And I asked him if he only painted ocean scenes He said for twenty dollars, I’ll paint you anything. Could you paint me a Birmingham? Make it look just the way I planned A little house on the edge of town Porch goin’ all the way around Put her there in the front yard swing Cotton dress, make it early spring For awhile she’ll be mine again If you can paint me a Birmingham. He looked at me, with knowing eyes Then took a canvas from a bag there by his side Picked up a brush, and said to me, "Son just where in this picture, would you like to be?" And I said if there’s any way you can Could you paint me back into her arms again? Could you paint me a Birmingham? Make it look just the way I planned A little house on the edge of town Porch goin’ all the way around Put her there in the front yard swing Cotton dress make it, early spring For awhile she’ll be, mine again If you could paint me a Birmingham. Paint me a Birmingham Make it look just the way I planned A little house on the edge of town Porch goin' all the way around Put her there in the front yard swing Cotton dress, make it early spring For awhile she’ll be mine again If you could paint me a Birmingham. Paint me a Birmingham... oh
