Sara Evans- A Little Bit Stronger

This song honestly describes my life to a T for the last few months.

Woke up late today and I still feel the sting of the pain
But I brushed my teeth anyway
I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face
I got a little bit stronger

Riding in the car to work and I'm trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for minute but then I changed it
I'm getting a little bit stronger, just a little bit stronger

And I'm done hoping that we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger

Doesn't happen overnight but you turn around
And a month's gone by and you realize you haven't cried
I'm not giving you a hour or a second or another minute longer
I'm busy getting stronger

And I'm done hoping that we can work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking, that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger

Getting along without you, baby
I'm better off without you, baby
How does it feel without me, baby?
I'm getting stronger without you, baby

And I'm done hoping we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger

I get a little bit stronger
Just a little bit stronger
A little bit, a little bit, a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger



My favorite lines and the reasons why:
I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face I got a little bit stronger
- I stopped carrying after my breakup. But I would try to survive my day anyways.

Riding in the car to work and I'm trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for minute but then I changed it
 - everything I did reminded me of him. We always listened to music in the car. especially because he loved to hear me sing. So for a while, songs I sang to him were really hard to listen too.

Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change
-When I heard this line, I was like OMG thats me. He always promised to change, but never did. 

And I'm done hoping that we can work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
-This one too is a big one for me. I always tried to find a solution to our problems. And the only true problem ended up being him.

Has this ever happened to anyone? Where you hear a song and instantly connect with it?
