Dear Lady A...

Good morning bloggy world.  It's a good day!  Lady Antebellum's new album came out today, and that got me out of bed this morning.  (Not sure if that's a good thing, but I'm going with it...I got up!)  I'd had almost an entire cup of coffee from my little red coffee maker before I left my house this morning, listenting to my freshly-downloaded Lady A.  Usually I'm running out the door, debating whether or not to take the time to make it.  Totally worth it.  I think it might be a new routine. 

Anyway, back to Lady Antebellum.  Definitely my favorite band right now.  (Really for the last two years, when they were still new.)  I think I like the fact that they were nobodies and now they've won Group of the Year.  They write their own music, which I really respect, and their lyrics...oh, the lyrics.  I'm such a words girl.

My favorite song right now is American Honey.  Here are the lyrics to the first part of the song:

She grew up on a side of the road

Where the church bells ring and strong love grows

She grew up good

She grew up slow

Like American honey

Steady as a preacher

Free as a weed

Couldn't wait to get goin'

But wasn't quite ready to leave

So innocent, pure and sweet

American honey

There's a wild, wild whisper

Blowin' in the wind

Callin' out my name like a long lost friend

Oh I miss those days as the years go by

Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime

And American honey

I love it!  I really like all the songs.  Thanks, iTunes for instant gratification.  Happy Tuesday.

Love, Lady Shay
