Remind Me...

Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood

[Brad:]
We didn't care if people stared
We'd make out in a crowd somewhere
Somebody'd tell us to get a room
It's hard to believe that was me and you
Now we keep saying that we're okay
But I don't want to settle for good not great
I miss the way that it felt back then I wanna feel that way again

[Brad:] Been so long that you'd forget the way I used to kiss your neck
[Carrie:] Remind me, remind me
[Brad:] So on fire so in love. Way back when we couldn't get enough
[Carrie:] Remind me, remind me

[Carrie:]
Remember the airport dropping me off
We were kissing goodbye and we couldn't stop
[Brad:] I felt bad cause you missed your flight
[Carrie and Brad:] But that meant we had one more night

[Carrie:]
Do you remember how it used to be
We'd turn out the lights and we didn't just sleep
[Brad:] Remind me, baby, remind me
[Carrie:]
Oh, so on fire so in love
That look in your eyes that I miss so much
[Brad:] Remind me, baby, remind me

[Brad:] I wanna feel that way
[Carrie:] Yeah, I wanna hold you close
[Brad and Carrie]
Oh, if you still love me
Don't just assume I know

[Carrie:] Baby, remind me, remind me

[Carrie:] Do you remember the way it felt?
[Brad:] You mean back when we couldn't control ourselves
[Carrie:] Remind me
[Brad:] Yeah, remind me
[Carrie:]
All those things that you used to do
That made me fall in love with you
Remind me, oh, baby, remind me

[Brad:]
Yeah, you'd wake up in my old t-shirt
All those mornings I was late for work
Remind me

[Brad and Carrie] Oh, baby, remind me

[Carrie:] Oh, baby, remind me, baby, remind me
[Brad:] Yeah, you'd wake up in my old t-shirt
[Carrie:] Remind me, yeah, oh
[Brad:] Baby, remind me


This song is a classic country love song. It's about rekindling the flame they had when they first started dating and reminding each other just how much they love them. Great for anyone who feels this way about their relationship or just loves country love songs.

My boyfriend and I recently got back together, and then decided to be really close friends. But sometimes I wish he would remind me that he still loves me as much as he used to. And that he still wants me. I just feel that he's looking for a way out. I love him so much that I don't want to lose him. Baby, remind me.

Hope you enjoyed listening.

Whatever It Takes


A strangled smile fell from your face
It kills me that I hurt you this way
The worst part is that I didn't even know
Now there's a million reasons for you to go
But if you can find a reason to stay

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what's at stake
I know that I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
Believe that I can change
I'll keep us together
Whatever it takes

She said If we're gonna make this work
You gotta let me inside even though it hurts
Don't hide the broken parts that I need to see
She said like it or not it's the way it's gotta be
You gotta love yourself if you can ever love me

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what's at stake
I know that I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
And give me a break
I'll keep us together,
I know you deserve much better

But remember the time I told you the way that I felt
That I'd be lost without you and never find myself
Let's hold onto each other above everything else
Start over, start over

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what's at stake
I know that I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
Believe that I can change
I'll keep us together
Whatever it takes



This song is very near and dear to my heart lately, because I'm going through a situation it strongly applies to. It tells of a relationship that's seen hurt and someone was wronged. And he's saying that he realizes he hurt her, even though he didn't know it at the time. But he's trying to correct his mistake, he's willing to change for her. Because he loves her. And love can conquer all if you let it. And he's saying that he'll do whatever it takes to fix her broken heart and bring them together again. And that's exactly how I feel right now.

This song is a bit of an alternative feel with a sad love song motif. It's a good song for anyone who wants to make things right in their relationship, and who loves the other person enough to change for them.

My boyfriend recently left me. And he told me he still loves me, and that he needed to have some space because he can't interact with me normally because of it. He can't be with me because of things going on in his life, and I understand that. And I said some things I didn't mean, and I ended up driving him farther away. Now I would do anything to fix it. I would do anything to get him back because I still love him. And this song fits the situation perfectly, because I hurt him without knowing it, and I would do whatever it takes to fix it. But he won't speak to me now, and even though he left on semi good terms, I'm scared he won't love me when he comes back. And that's something that scares me to death. I love him so much, and I don't want to lose him forever. I'm sorry....

Hope you enjoyed listening.
