Katelyn Renee Shumaker

I have heard this song by Kenney Chesney several times and never once really listened to the words! Of course I was always preoccupied when the song came on because the first time Katelyn and I heard it we were with a friend and she sang the "today" and "someday" part in a silly crazy way and Katelyn absolutely loved it! Thereafter everytime Katelyn heard this song she would just start giggling when those lines came along, so we usually laughed throughout the rest of the song. If you are like me and haven't really listened to the words here are the lyrics. How fitting!

"Who You'd Be Today"

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
I feel you everywhere I go.
I see your smile, I see your face,
I hear you laughin' in the rain.
I still can't believe you're gone.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who'd you be today?

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
Settle down with a family,
I wonder what would you name your babies?
Some days the sky's so blue,
I feel like I can talk to you,
An' I know it might sound crazy.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who you'd be today?

Today, today, today.
Today, today, today.

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
The only thing that gives me hope,
Is I know I'll see you again some day.

Some day, some day, some day.
