Monitors...why Was Arizona Pulled??????

Hi everyone,

Ever since i first heard this song ( by Jamie Oneal ) it has made me extremely emotional........I first thought it was because I couldnt share it with my best friend Tammy, whom had a history and house in Arizona, (tammy is my friend whom died from an over dose of Soma...) we used to call each other and say " Have you heard this song??????? Hang on Ill play it for you...and she would while she danced around her living room....

But I've been listening to this song over and over again, and for those of you whom know the song, realized the reason it struck a chord for ME, was also because I am awakening to the fact that there is no Arizona.

Arizona being a place of perfection...sedona with its colors and mystery, its allure, its majesty..its euphoria..........I have come to realize there is no magic potion...no little pill that will fix things, to give me the beauty, truth and love I seek.. For me..Arizona is the perfect place i USED TO THINK I was in when on my pills...but there is NO ARIZONA....

Wish i could play it for you all...and dance around my living room....lolol...but here are the lyrics. thanks for letting me share.

Hugs
Ali

He promised her a new and better life out in Arizona
under the blue never ending sky swore that he was
going to get things in order then he'd send for her
but it never crossed her mind...

(Chorus)
There is no Arizona no painted desert no Sedona
if there was a Grand Canyon she could fill it up
with the lies he's told her but they don't exsist
those dreams he sold her she'll wake up and find
there is no Arizona

She got a postcard with no return address postmark
a tombstone it said I don't no where I'm going next but
when I do I'll let you know May June July she wonders why
shes still waiting she'll keep waiting...

(chorus)

Each day the sun sets in to the West her heart sinks lower
in her chest and friends keep asking when shes going
finally she tells them don't you know.....that

(chorus repeat 2 times)

He promised her a new and better life out in Arizona...
Ali,
Hey sweetie, how are you today? You got mail by the way...
I haven't heard that song, but I will look for it so I can listen to it. You've told me about Tammy before, that should have been a HUGE wake up call for you. I can't imagine. I've also lost a best friend, but not like that.
Have a good rest of the day and remember Tammy in the most beautiful light.

Stacey
stacey,

thanks love, it SHOULD have been the wake up call I needed, but shes been gone almost 2 years.....I justified in my sick mind, that I was not on soma, never took the other drugs she loved, never got "Physically effected...(slurred speech, eyes red and beety...)

In fact, theres more to the story that I cant share right now, but suffice to say that as my pain over her loss increased, so did my dosages......Sad but true.Im only now waking up to the truths.

Hugs,

Ali
Ali,better late than never(on waking up to the truth)now you are heading down the right path and thats all that matters,the here and now!

I love that song,i burned it on a cd the week it came out.Yo me its about lost love and trust,she waits and waits for him to meet him htere,but he never calls.It is a sad song,but i like it too!

WHAT IS MY SONG?> dear god I have so many.
I love Tool "opiate" ha actually I just love Tool period.
You know I love the Beatles more than any other band...
but I think the best singer for me to really feel better after I sing is Fiona Apple. She's so angry and blunt and I LOVE HER!!! GRRR, I'm gonna go listen to her right now.

How bout those groups for some off the wall combos...

Ali,
I haven't heard the song yet, i tried to download it and couldn't. I will try again, ill look for it somewhere else.
