Bless the Broken Road

I just want to share three of Rascal Flatts great songs.   Look at how the lyrics are conceptualized.  I don't know what's in them that separates them from the others.  

Great! 

"Bless The Broken Road"

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

 "What Hurts the Most"

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house, that don't bother meI can take a few tears now and then and just let them outI'm not afraid to cryEvery once in a while even though goin on with you gone still upsets meThere are daysEvery now and again I pretend i'm okay but that's not what gets me

What hurts the most, was being so close and having so much to sayAnd watchin you walk awayNever knowing, what could have beenAnd not seein that lovin youIs what I was tryin to do

It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I goBut i'm doin itIt's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and i'm aloneStill harder gettin up, gettin dressed, livin with this regret

But I know if I could do it overI would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart that I left unspokenWhat hurts the most, is being so closeAnd having so much to sayAnd watchin you walk awayNever knowing, what could have beenAnd not seein that lovin youIs what I was tryin to do 

What hurts the most, was being so closeAnd having so much to sayAnd watchin you walk awayAnd never knowing, what could have beenAnd not seein that lovin youIs what I was tryin to donot seein that lovin youthat's what I was tryin to do

"My Wish"

I hope that the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

Rascal Flatts

It has already been in my blog that I became an instant fan of Rascal Flatts the moment I heard them sing “God Bless the Broken Road” while having a duet with my only favorite American Idol, Carrie Underwood during the Idols Finals Night.

Admittedly, I was wowed with the lyrics and the voice.  Had it not for them, I will never discover and pinpoint that country songs are actually one genre that I really adore. 

And more than a year after, I chat with a friend, Joy, who equally adores the Rascal Flatt… then just this afternoon, I was able to read MJ's post in multiply referring to "My Wish" lyrics of the Rascals.

And I decided to start collecting their albums… all those five!

A Big Question mark registered in my ind… who sent this text?

My friend, Shenette!   Kaya pala… my Panky posts are just recent but I was surprised to see that it climbed up to the list of most visited blogs.  Thanks to the Pankystas and Chankystas who regularly visit my site! So flattered that you enjoy my katimangan blogs… 

I was so sorry I failed to get a pic of Chad and Panky together while I was on their dressing room.  Chad is extremely oozing with sex appeal.. kaya nahiya ako lumapit… feeling ko hindi ako aabot humakbang sa kinaroonan niya at nastar-struck ako… whehehe
