Who You'd Be Today

By: Kenny Chesney

 

Sunny days seem to hurt the most
Wear the pain like a heavy coat
I feel you everywhere I go
See your smile, I see your face
I hear you laughing in the rain
Still can't believe your gone

(Chorus:)
It ain't fair you died to young
Like a story that had just begun
But death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I've been through
Just knowing, no one could take your place

Sometimes I wonder, who you'd be today

Would you see the world
Would you chase your dreams
Settle down with a family
I wonder what would you name your babies
Someday's the sky's so blue
I feel like I can talk to you
And I know it might sound crazy

(Chorus)

Today [3x]
Today [3x]

Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
The only thing that gives me hope
Is I know, I'll see you again someday

Someday, someday

 

 

MY MYSTERY STORY!  PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS!

 

Some may not believe my story, as I didn't believe my story at first, but it is the TRUTH! I still have the balloon to prove it.

On October 29th, 2005 my daughter had her first birthday. Of course we had balloons at the party and that night we wrote her name and phone number on a yellow balloon with a pink ribbon and let in go into the sky! SOunds pretty normal so far, right. Well, on November 16th, 2005, the day that my Ryan was killed in a terrible accident, was just a bad day for me. I was under alot of emotional stress that week and that night I sit down with my best friend in Flordia and had a 3 hour phone conversation mostly about Ryan. It had been 5 years since he'd been gone and it still hurt me as much as it ever had. I just never got to say goodbye and that has always bothered me. Just the fact I never got to look at the brown haired freckled face boy and said "Goodbye - I'll see you again someday." Just a heartwrenching conversation but I felt alot better talking about things. Well it got late and we got off the phone and  I walked outside to smoke. It was a really windy night. That's when I seen something in the yard that looked like a balloon. I though no way! My daughters balloon has found it's way back???? So I went in the dark and got it. Sure enough it was a balloon. I got back on the porch where I had the light on and looked at the balloon. It wasn't hers but instead it was the opposite of hers. It was a pink balloon with a yellow ribbon and I kid you not the ballon says RYAN'S STEAKHOUSE - GRILL, BUFFETT, & BAKERY!

My hands were shaking and it didn't make no sense. The nearest Ryan's Steakhouse is at least 30 miles from here. It was a very windy night, and a balloon was stuck on grass in my yard that just happened to say what it did on the day that Ryan passed away 5 years ago. Took me a while to believe my story but everytime I look at the balloon, I know that Ryan's out there and he sees me. I can't see him but I can feel his presence in my life to this day. It was just amazing and I have come to accept his death more now. It seems to me that late October day my daughter and I sent a balloon to heaven and Ryan, my angel, sent one back to us. As I said, I know most won't believe my story but if anyone has ever had any experience similar to this, I would love to hear from you. Email me at addictedtoroarke@bellsouth.net

 

I love you Ryan! You were my first of many things and many times we shared! You were my best friend and almost 6 years since we lost you please know that I still think about you everyday!
