Today’s song was a suggestion from a comment on the post below! Today’s song is from TRAVIS TRITT!! WOOT WOOT! He is amazing! His video’s always tell stories. Most of them make me cry. I am certain I can still hear him yelling his wife’s name in the Tell Me I Was Dreaming video.

Anyhoo, today’s song is called “Best of Intentions”. I once read a quote that said something like “Just because someone doesn’t love you the way that YOU want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all of their heart”

I think I’m guilty (as I’m sure many of you have been at one time), of expecting a fairy tale love story, or to have a guy write love songs about you all the time and sweep you off your feet and fly you around the world etc. I bet you if you got down to the heart of the guy you love, you’d see these were his intentions. He loves you like a Queen, but can maybe only provide a Pauper’s lifestyle.

A lot of guys are afraid to show how they feel, and I think this song does a good job of reminding the ladies that they really love us and always hoped to give you the best, even if it fell through. And they do love you, no matter what:) For better or for worse were the vows right? I hope I never forget that if/when I ever get married!

**NOTE** I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS VIDEO. IT’S THE ONLY ONE THAT WOULD LINK PROPERLY**

Best Of Intentions by Travis Tritt

I had big plans for our future
Said I’d give you the whole world somehow
I tried makin’ good on that promise
Thought I’d be so much further by now
Never could build you a castle
Even though you’re the queen of my heart
But I’ve had the best of intentions from the start

Now some people think I’m a loser
‘Cause I seldom get things right
But you make me feel like a winner
When you wrap me in your arms so tight
Please tell me you will remember
No matter how much I do wrong
That I had the best of intentions all along

I gave you a ring
And I promised you things
I always thought we’d do
But my best-laid plans
Slipped right through my hands
To show my love for you
And if you could read my heart
Then you’d know without exception
It was all with the best of intentions

I gave you a ring
And I promised you things
I always thought we’d do
But my best-laid plans
Slipped right through my hands
To show my love for you
And if you could read my heart
Then you’d know without exception
It was all with the best of intentions

So here I am asking forgiveness
And praying that you’ll understand
Don’t think I take you for granted
Girl, I know just how lucky I am
Though you deserve so much better
You won’t find devotion more true
‘Cause I’ve had the best of intentions
Girl, I’ve had the best of intentions
Yes, I’ve had the best of intentions loving you
