The Score: Martina McBride – I Just Call You Mine

Welcome to “The Score,” A Novel Menagerie’s weekly music feature.  Each  Thursday, I will share an artist and a song that I favor.  Thereafter, the song will be available to you in my sidebar widget until the following week’s selection.

I welcome your suggestions for future artist spotlights.

Remember:  If you are reading this post via email or Google Reader, you will need to click over to the post to fully enjoy the song of the week!

This week, I am highlighting a song that I heard at the end of this week’s season finale of The Bachelorette.  I just loved the song, but had no idea who sang it.  I did a little bit of internet research and VOILA… Martina McBride!  This, of course, makes sense because earlier in the season Jillian and Jake had a personal concert date with her. 

I have not listened to the entire album, Shine, as of yet, but I love love love this song.  Overall, there are many songs by Martina McBride that I really enjoy, especially “My Valentine,” “In My Daughter’s Eyes,” and “This One’s For the Girls.”  All, great songs.    

Enjoy!

Here is the Music Player. You need to installl flash player to show this cool thing!

I pinch myself
Sometimes to make sure I’m not in a dream
That’s how it seems

I close my eyes and breathe in the sweetest moments I’ve ever known
It feels like home

And here I am
I want to be your everything
There you are
Turning winter into spring

And everyone that sees you
Always wants to know you
And everyone that knows you
Always has a smile
You’re a standing ovation
After years of waiting
For a chance to finally shine
Everyone calls you amazing
Yeahhhh
I just call you mine

I fall apart
And just a word from you
Somehow seems to fix
Whatever’s wrong
Ohh
You reach into the weakest moments and remind me that I’m strong
You gotta know
I’d be a fool not to see or even worse to forget
That you’re more than I deserve

Cause everyone that sees you
Always wants to know you
And everyone that knows you
Always has a smile
You’re a standing ovation
After years of waiting
For a chance to finally shine
Everyone calls you amazing
I just call you mine

Nothing makes sense when you’re not here
As if my whole world disappears
Without you what’s the point of it

Cause everyone that sees you
Always wants to know you
And everyone that knows you
Always has a smile
You’re the dream that I’ve been chasing
After years of waiting
For a chance to finally shine
Everyone calls you amazing
I just call you mine
Everyone calls you amazing
I just call you mine
