“Some People” is a very happy song to me. When I listen to it I think about love and happiness and how a couple has worked hard to reach that point of happiness in their relationship. LeAnn Rimes tone is so strong in this song like she is making a point that she has been in bad relationships but now she is happy. I think about a couple who has been through very rough times but now they are doing better and this is where they want to be in that moment, hopelessly in love with each other because they have already been through so much that nothing can bring them down from where they are. I met my boyfriend when I was only 15 years old and he was 18. This song reminds me of my husband and I and that is why it means so much to me. We danced to this song on our wedding day. I knew it was our song because it said so much about us and made me think about what we had been through in 4 years of being together and where we had come from in our relationship to where we are now.
In the first verse of the song it is about how hard it is to find someone to love and when you do find that special someone it is hard to give them your heart. It about being so in love that people began to lose themselves and forget who they are without that person. When I first began dating Kole I was so scared of having my heart broke and I didn’t want to fall in love. We did begin to date and of course I became so lost in him that I forgot who I was. I never hung with my friends anymore and just looked forward to seeing him instead of worrying about what I really wanted. A year into our relationship I thought everything was perfect until he cheated on me. I was 17 and devastated. I lost a lot of weight and just cried all the time. I had never felt life that before and I didn’t know how to react. A couple months late I forgave him and we got back together. We were doing just fine and happy.
In May 2005 I graduated from high school and in August 2005 we got engaged in Helen, Georgia. Everything was going as planned and we were so happy. I never imagined what was going to happen next. I began to party more and being raised in church I knew better. I was only 18 and I decided I wanted time to myself so we were on and off for about 6 months. I began to see someone else and was having fun. He became very hurt by my actions and I was only thinking about what I wanted at the time. He moved in with a friend and began to party and drink more as well which led to him cheating again. Not to say I was being perfect but he didn’t have to go that far with it. I had my heart torn apart again and didn’t know how to handle once again. I just got drunk a lot and didn’t care. We would see each other at bars and it wasn’t very nice when that happened. To me it was all immature things.
Well once again we got back together in April 2006. One night at church we both gave our hearts to Christ. I knew we weren’t doing right and we had to change. In the second verse it talks of how two people just stumbled into fate. Kole and I have made many mistakes in our relationship and learned a lot through them and in the song it says “Look how much we’ve been given babe, in spite of all our mistakes.” When I hear that verse I just think of where we are today and what we have now. We have a nice home with descent paying jobs for two young people like us. I believe we have been blessed with so much. In this verse it also talks about how things are not always going to be easy and you have each other to make it through the hard times and the good times to celebrate. Like Leann Rimes says “Thank God we have each other we can hang onto.” Without God and each other I couldn’t have forgiven him or he couldn’t have forgiven me, it would have been hard.
In the chorus of the song she sings about how lucky people are to find that someone. I feel very lucky to be where I am today. She sings that some won’t recognize love even when it is right in front of them and how some couples just give up on what they do have. I believe that if people can make it through the hard times they can look forward to the good times. Some people called me crazy for getting back with him but I wasn’t happy without him Even though he was my only serious boyfriend I knew he was the right one, I just had to do some work on him. To me nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. We have put our past behind us and look to the future. We are prepared for hard times because I know \that everything won’t always be a fairy world.
We ended up getting married on November 18, 2006. “Some people” was the song we danced to at our reception. I get emotional now when I listen to it because it means so much to me. When we were broke up I couldn’t get Kole off my mind and all I did was worry about him. It’s not easy to watch someone that you love so much, act like someone you don’t even know. I personally love the bridge of the song . LeAnn sings about having someone to share tears, laughter, and secrets with. Like in the song it is nice to have someone who won’t judge you for who you are and someone there to stand beside you no matter what.
I really love this song and play it every now and then to think about our wedding day. It was everything I had every imagined. So many people were there to support our marriage even though they all knew what we had been through. Some people say if our relationship can make it through what it has so far then their relationships can to. This November we will be together 5 years and married 1 year. Some people really aren’t lucky like us.
Leann Rimes - Some People Lyrics
Isn't it a gambleLayin' your heart out on the floorNothin' short of a miracleWhen you find the one you're looking forIt's another kind of trouble trying to hang on to who you areWhen all you wanna do is lose yourself in someone else's armsIsn't it a wonder (that) we got this farSome people aren't lucky like usSome people they just give upWhen the hard times fallThe thrill of it all is goneLeaves you in a cloud of dustIt's sad to think that some won't find itAnd others won't recognize it even when it comesWe're all at the mercy of the will of loveSome people yeahSome people aren't lucky like usTwo lonely souls that just stumbled into fateLook how much we've been given babeIn spite of all of our mistakesAnd I will never forget I've been blessed with the gift of lovin' youAnd when the going aint easy babeA little faith will pull us throughThank God we have eachother we can hang onto[repeat chorus][Bridge]To have someone you can laugh withSomeone you can cry withTell all your secrets toTo have someone who won't judge youSomeone who just loves youNo matter what, they stand beside you

That is a beautiful song and when you find that song that makes you think of the one you love, it really speaks to you. I have a few songs too that make me really emotional but in that happy in love feeling.
