    One day after a chemo treatment my husband and laid on our bed . After 1 1/2 years of treatment and 29 years of marriage I think that was the day I knew he wasn't going to make it and this song came on. I laid there quietly singing this to him while I ran my fingers of his now bald head and tried so hard not to cry. But I felt this song down to my soul. To this day when I hear this song I freely cry now. He's been gone for 8 years now God knows I still love and miss that man.

      My daughter died 9 months ago. She was 41 and a drug addict but she walk3d out in front of a car and died from the impact. Every time the song " Running up the hill" comes on I turn into a fountain. Blessings and peace to you.❤

    "Chasing Cars"
    We'll do it all
    Everything
    On our own
    We don't need
    Anything
    Or anyone
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    I don't quite know
    How to say
    How I feel
    Those three words
    Are said too much
    They're not enough
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life
    Let's waste time
    Chasing cars
    Around our heads
    I need your grace
    To remind me
    To find my own
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life
    All that I am
    All that I ever was
    Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
    I don't know where
    Confused about how as well
    Just know that these things will never change for us at all
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

    Lyrics :
    We'll do it all
    Everything
    On our own
    We don't need
    Anything
    Or anyone
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    I don't quite know
    How to say
    How I feel
    Those three words
    Are said too much
    They're not enough
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life
    Let's waste time
    Chasing cars
    Around our heads
    I need your grace
    To remind me
    To find my own
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life
    All that I am
    All that I ever was
    Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
    I don't know where
    Confused about how as well
    Just know that these things will never change for us at all
    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
