No One - Alicia Keys


I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try try to divide something so real
So till the end of time I'm telling you there is no one

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Content

I came to a very big conclusion today and that is that everything is going to be okay. I kept telling myself this in hopes that I would believe it. I don't know why I had doubts. I always come through. What really made me strongly believe and feel it was something that seemed of very little significance. I was sitting in my living room after a long day at work. Work went well and I was just relaxing and winding down for the day. I was eating waffles for dinner, not anything spectacular. But, I had a strong feeling of contentment. This contentment was a feeling I had longed so much for as a child. I had on several ocassions when I was younger, sat and wondered what my life would be like when I was older. Hoping that it wouldn't be as difficult as I had felt my life was growing up, hoping for something better. I have everything going for me and I like my life and who I am. I am going to be making some big changes soon with the divorce and am anxious to get back on track and moving forward. But I know I have to be patient and it will come in time. This is a good feeling.

2007 Year in Review

Day one of the new year, 2008. Wow, what a year it has been! Crazy, overwhelming, emotional, exciting... crazy!

I had difficulty at work because early in the year I lost my motivation and became very overwhelmed. I have been regaining momentum and hope this new year brings back the excitement. I love my work and I'm very good at what I do. I have almost tripled my salary since I started almost 8 years ago. My anniversary is in 2 days.

I left my husband of 16 years. I had been unhappily married for several years with the last 3 being especially lonely and distant. It was the right thing to do. It was very difficult and emotional. I'm looking forward to filing the paperwork and finalizing the divorce. I'm so glad he didn't try harder to hold on.

I fell in love. He's amazing. My heart is pounding just thinking about him. He's sweet and caring, loving and giving, smart, funny, cute and sexy. He's married and I have never been involved with someone in a relationship before, so it is a bit difficult and emotional at times. I cannot however deny my heart and my feelings. I'm looking forward to every moment with him this year and hope it brings good things for us.

I believe the events of 2007 was in preparation for great things to come in 2008. I can't wait!
