Finding The Right Girl...



So, it's Friday night?  What are you doing?

Well, I am headed to baseball with my eldest, but back in the day I might have been at a bar looking for a girl.  Not any girl, but "that" girl.  It is one of those days when I have a million things to do, but the little inspiration bug is sitting there whispering that my loyal fans will be disappointed if they don't have their Friday night music fix, courtesy of yours truly.

Anyway, I know some of the songs of late were less about that girl than finding any girl, but I have to say there are few things as nice as being able to know you found that girl.  You know?  The one Tim McGraw is singing about in his song That Girl.

Waitin' for that girl, that girl, that girl
Hard to find, got me spending every night
Lookin' for that girl, that girl, that girl
Sundown, heaven town, drivin' 'round, hitting the bars,
Shooting the stars, rollin' up on every party wonderin' where you are
Lookin' for that girl, that girl, that girl
Drivin' me crazy, something says baby, yeah, maybe you're that girl

Hair like a field of gold
Body like a honeycomb
Smile like a country song
Baby where you been?

I have to admit I love the line about "If you see her, tell her I'm… Lookin' for that girl, that girl, that girl."  I guess I missed the instructions that stumbling into the perfect relationship was so easy.  It seems to me that most relationships are not 50/50, but are 100/100...because whether you are dating or engaged or married if you are putting less than one hundred percent of yourself into it, what is the point?  Moreover, how cool is it when you find the person who will put one hundred percent of themselves into you?
