Music takes you back, doesn't it?

I'm sitting here listening to Pandora while I'm working and a song came on that took me back.

Count on Me from Waiting to Exhale

This is a song that I chose for my wedding reception. A song that I dedicated to my bridal party. My girls. We all got together in the middle of the dance floor and cried as we hugged each other.

It was a beautiful moment. My message to each of them that they could always count on me. Even though I was going to start a new life as a wife that they could always turn to me.

Are there any songs that immediately take you back to a specific moment in your life?

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on....

I can see it's hurting you
I can feel your pain
It's hard to see the sunshine through the rain oh
I know sometimes it seems as if it’s never gonna end
But you'll get through it
just don't give in

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me I will be there
Don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on....

I know sometimes it seems as if
we're standing all alone
But we'll get through cause love wouldn't let us fall

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that would never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me I will be there
Don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say count on

There's a place inside of all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love
The answers there within, ohhhh
I know that life can make you feel
It's much harder than it really is
But we'll get through it
Just don't give in...

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that would never end
When you are weak
I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me I will be there
Don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on
Count on
Count on
Count on
Count on
Count on
Count on me...
Ohh yes you can, I know I can, sure I can, so glad I can, so glad I can, Count on me
