I’ve been listening to a lot of Jo Dee Messina on my iPod lately. Most of her biggest songs have upbeat tempos and optimistic lyrics, so listening to her sometimes lifts my spirits a little.
I’m currently addicted to one song called “Downtime” that sounds a little like what I’m going through nowadays. I try to think of it whenever I get down about my work crush. Here are the lyrics:
I haven’t been myself these days according to friends
I tend to lose a part of me when my heart is on the mend
I’ll be alright it’s safe to say
‘Cause just like your love this is only a phase
Oh, I’ve been on this road a time or two, it’s nothing new
I’ll get on my feet and over you
I tell myself that everything will be just fine
I’m just going through a little downtime
Some might think I’ve gotten caught up in heartache’s aftermath
But your memory’s taken second to a good book and nice long bath
I must admit it threw me at first
But I’m convinced I’m over the worst
Oh, I’ve been down this road a time or two, it’s nothing new
I’ll get on my feet and over you
I tell myself that everything will be just fine
I’m just going through a little downtime
Time is meant to play the part
In taking care of broken hearts
Oh, I’ve been down this road a time or two, it’s nothing new
I’ll get on my feet and over you
I tell myself that everything will be just fine
I’m just going through a little downtime
I’m just going through a little downtime
