If You Need Time To Think About It

I love my country music...teardrops and all. This one just came to me as I was thinking about how many times when couples break up the reason is usually "I just need time to think about it"...and how few times that is actually the reason.

If You Need Time To Think About It (Song)

By: Fee

 

I’ve folded up all those legal papers

That spelt the end of you and me

I closed out all of our joint savings

You know girl nothing comes for free

 

Now you told me you needed time to think

Guess what? I thought it out, we’re through

You see if you need time to think about love

It’s time to take the “me” out of me and you

 

I need to go fill in those little cards

Informing all I’m changing my address

But just what I’m going to write on them

Right now is really anybody’s guess

 

No, I won’t waste my precious tears

While you have fun playing musical beds

You know I don’t like silly mind games

They just screw-up people’s heads

 

But sometimes when I think about you

I’ll look back and thank you babe it’s true

As I grin and willingly buy another round

For tonight’s sexy replacement of you…

Cool photograph, nice bike! It is never easy when two people begin to walk different paths, but it does happen and each find a way to get through it and move on. Very touching write, much heart and emotion in it...

Be always safe,

An excellent write! I come from a long line of long marrieds and when I think of all they did to hold their marriages together it really makes me feel sorry for people today. They do not seem to realize that love is not a static thing but a living, breathing entity that must be nurtured through hard work and commitment. But our society is all about immediate gratification so when the initial glow passes they begin to think they've "fallen out of love" and start looking elsewhere instead of at the person with whom they've already shared so much. How many good relationships have been sacrificed on the alter of "me first," I wonder? Rebecca

very cool song Fee - now, where's my guitar? Get this: On Friday night, a now long dead Brazilian Cowboy legend wearing a batterered hat and lasooooo, smiled and winked at me, blew me a kiss too - he was borrowing the body of a rather attractive woman medium at the time, at an Umbanda meeting where people twirl around, sing, dance, do healings and readings, smoke very fat cigars and drink rum - it was nice to meet him...again?!! Lol!! Nowt stranger than the truth -the cheeky revival in the last line of your song is super -i feel like buying in a few twirling rounds myself - yeah! :o) xx

Fee,
So sad but true, couples break up every day! Fee, you should go into writing country songs. I was raised listening to country music and still love it. You put yourself in anothers shoes well in this one, my friend.

Many blessings,

You are absolutely right Fee. If you have to "think about it" that is a sure sign that their is no love left to think about. Another great work Fee.

Fee,

"If You Need Time To Think About It..." it's already too late, I think. Sad: my parents were married for 39 years when Mom died. Daddy remarried 6 years later, he and his second wife were married 12 years when HE died.

My brother (Happy Birthday, Kenny) and his first wife were married 25 years when his wife passed away. He's been married to his second wife for a couple of years - and they're still in love.

That's what I most admire about them: they honored the wedding vows, 'til death did them part. Too many divorces going on ... and I'm in the ranks. Was married 2 1/2 years when my husband divorced me ... haven't dated much since. Not that I don't miss him (at times, I do), it's just that I feel like I'd be cheating on the memory of what we first had ... you know?

That has nothing to do at all with your poem ... sorry, your words got me to thinking. You poem is heartbreaking, because of how it is nowadays ... well done, my (((friend))).

Hey, saw that Jimmie won yesterday's race. :) 'Least my man did better this time 'round - 8th place, instead of near last, like the last race. LOL

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

I wish Johnny Cash could have belted this one, my kind of thing I guess, and that mean Harley put that final point at the end.

Oh how sad this write is mainly because its so true. What every happened to sticking in there and until death do us part. Gee, I can't tell you how many times I feel in and out of love with my husband and he will me in the 45 years of marriage, but we stuck it out. This poem says it all. Love, and hugs, Bonnie
