TSMSS: Just Like Me



No video today. I picked an old song. I'm not sure how old it is, but I know that 22 years ago, today, my soon-to-be husband sang it as I walked down the aisle. Not during our wedding, but just before. After much debate and discussion, my very romantic man agreed to see me before the wedding for pictures, but only if we had some time alone together. So, about an hour before the wedding, my bridesmaids got me ready to walk down the aisle. I kept asking if everyone except John was out of the church. They kept stalling me. There was a lone guitar player who strummed while John sang this song. As soon as it was over, Russ slipped out.

Check out my wedding pictures here:


Just Like Me (Sweet Comfort Band c. 1980)

If I had a dime for every time
I've had you on my mind
They would stretch on down the highway
In an endless line
If I had a dime for everytime
I've thought about us two
I could buy myself a lifetime
Just to spend on you

And maybe you could care for someone
Just like me
Maybe you're in need of somone
Just like me

Now I told you how I hold you
In my highest esteem
I hope you don't disapprove of me
If I'm not what I seem
As a matter fot fact
I've been holding back
The way I really feel
Cuz I've been afraid
Of what you might say
If my heart had been revealed

And maybe you could care for someone
Just like me
Maybe you're in need of somone
Just like me

Well, I'm no Knight in shining armor
I'm No prince charming, I agree
But what lack in might and valor
I'll make up in honesty

So, here I go
I will try to show
How much for you I care
But the value that I place in you
Is far beyond compare
You mean more to me
Than the eye can see
But your heart can understand
That I'm talkin of the kind of love
To a woman from a man

And maybe you could care for someone
Just like me
Maybe you're in need of somone
Just like me
Maybe deep inside you're feelin'
Just like me
And maybe you could marry someone
Just like me
