Living Inside My Heart Now

This morning, in a sext to my boyfriend, I used the word inhabit. Before he could answer, I started to answer in my own mind. (This is a frequent occurrence. In fact, I've had to break up with guys because their responses weren't as good as my imagined responses -- but this is another area where this man excels.) Anyway, my response included, it will not surprise you to learn, a soundtrack. Here's what was playing, in all its cheesy glory:

When the sun came up this morning

And she smiled her smile for me

I felt it for the first time

Something deep inside of me

So you can take your midnight ramblin' boys

And you can keep your winding roads

She's livin' inside my heart now, livin' inside

Oh there's an easiness about her

There's a softness in her way

But she gets me through the hard times

We get closer everyday

I know I'll never be alone now boys

Cause even if I'm far away

She's livin' inside my heart now, livin' inside, yeah

And I don't know what I did to deserve her

But I'll tell you this my friend

I'm never gonna lose her

Never gonna lose her

Cause eve - ry night

She's livin' inside my heart now, livin' inside

Love that song! Remember About Last Night, the movie it came from? Here's a video with a snippet of the movie with the song playing in the background.

Watching it now, it occurs to me that those two kids (played by Rob Lowe and Demi Moore) didn't really understand what love was. I didn't know that when I first watched this in the 80s, that's for sure.

This being older, second time around thing sure has its benefits!
