Whats My Song? "All by myself"

Recently I was sitting alone in my apartment, eating some ice cream and watching Bridget Jones's Diary in an attempt to cheer myself up. I've been feeling blue lately and that movie always makes me laugh hysterically, so I figured it was worth a shot. There's a scene in the movie where Miss Jones is drinking a bottle of wine alone in her apartment and she's listening to Celine Dion's "All By Myself" and singing it at the top of her lungs. 

Although its sad (and a little bit tragic!), it's still pretty funny and I couldn't help but laugh and picture myself doing the same thing. Sometimes it's hard being alone. And although I am married and have already found the love of my life, he is never around. The last two years have been the hardest of my life and sometimes I get so tired of being "All By Myself." 

There are just those days when I need his arms around me and a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen and tell me "it will all be ok." There are times that I miss him so much that my heart literally aches and no matter how much I try to stay busy or distracted it's like there is a piece of me that's missing. I can't really explain it any better than that. Its an awful feeling, and I'm trying to overcome it. I definitely don't want to spend the next 10 months crying myself to sleep every night and listening to this song!

Last night I was watching my dvr and catching up on "Glee" from Tuesday night when this song came on the show....so I took that as a sign from the Universe that THIS SONG just HAD to be my selection this week for Goodnight Moon's link up. Obviously somebody around here is trying to tell me something, and I don't know whether it's a good or bad thing! lol! 

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone
Livin' alone
I think of all the friends I've known
When I dial the telephone
Nobody's home

All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore

Hard to be sure
Sometimes I feel so insecure
And loves so distant and obscure
Remains the cure

All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore
All by myself
Don't wanna live
All by myself
Anymore

When I was young
I never needed anyone
Making love was just for fun
Those days are gone

All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this version and will all go link up with whatever song is moving you this week. ♥  Happy Thursday!

  1. Aww, I could not imagine what you (and all other military wives) go through. It makes me take a second look at how I should be even that much more thankful that mine is at home hogging up the tv and the bed.

    Hope it gets better...and I do love that song!
