Beautiful Every Time

Has anyone heard that song by Lee Brice? I was listening to the radio this week and I must have heard it every day on my way to or home from work and I just love it. I'm pretty sure it's been out for a while, but it really stuck with me. Here are some of my favorite lyrics:

I've been around the ocean since I was a kid
I don't get to see it much these days
This mornin' I walked down to it, just to say I did
And damned if it didn't take my breath away
I guess some things are just that way
Like a baby sleeping
A mama kneeling
A Key West sunset sky
Yeah the chills I get, when you lay your lips on mine
That's beautiful......beautiful every time

I guess amazing, will always be amazing
Like a church choir singing
A nation healing
A soldier coming home alive
The love for me girl I see in your eyes
That's beautiful
Beautiful every time

It got me thinking about all those moments in life that are so simple, but they really make an impression on your heart and your memory. I mean, have you ever walked on a beach as the sun rises? It IS breath taking, the way the water goes on and on and the calm of the ocean before the beach has filled up with people, and feeling your toes in that soft sand, it's just a wonder to behold. So anyway, I came up with a few more instances in life that are just always perfect, feel free to post some of your own in the comments.....

-Elderly couples who still hold hands when they walk

-The still of a crowd during the National Anthem

-The atmosphere of a small town at the Homecoming football game

-Seeing your baby move on an ultrasound

-Hearing your baby's heartbeat for the first time

-The moment you realize, "This is my forever, the one I couldn't live without..."
