Anatomy of a Song - How Can Perfection Get Better?

As I've said many many times before, I like just about every genre of music...... EVERY... but I grew up with Country, and it remains my favorite......

Which song improves perfection?


Jump with me.......


My favorite band in Country music? Who else but Lady Antebellum...... they have a wonderful sound, they are still unique, even in the light of such groups as Sugarland(now a duo), Gloriana, & Little Big Town... Lady A stands out... so much, look at this list...


  • 6 time ACM Award Winners(8 total noms)
  • 5 time CMA Award Winners(8 total noms)
  • 6 time Grammy Award Winners(5 in one night)(10 total noms)
  • 2011 Grammy Award for Song, Album, & Record of the Year

All those are amazing accomplishments, and I would guess that it's no even close to being over...... oh, and they've only released two albums so far...

Impressed yet?

They are releasing their third album on September 13th, titled "Own The Night", and once again, I'm blown away by the first single alone...... and I'm going to share it with you... hopefully both the video and the lyrics...

Name of the song? "Just A Kiss"






Well, there is the video..... now how about the lyrics?

Here they are.....


"Just A Kiss" by Lady Antebellum

Lyin' here with you so close to me
It's hard to fight these feelings when it feels so hard to breathe
Caught up in this moment, caught up in your smile

I never open up to anyone
So hard to hold back when I'm holdin' you in my arms
We don't need to rush this, let's just take it slow

Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burnin' so bright
I don't wanna mess this thing up
I don't wanna push too far
Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life
So baby I'm alright with just a kiss goodnight

I know that if we give this a little time
It'll only bring us closer to the love we wanna find
It's never felt so real, no it's never felt so right

Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burnin' so bright
I don't wanna mess this thing up
I don't wanna push too far
Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life
So baby I'm alright with just a kiss goodnight

No I don't wanna say goodnight
I know it's time to leave, but you'll be in my dreams
Tonight, tonight, tonight

Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burnin' so bright
I don't wanna mess this thing up
I don't wanna push too far
Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life
So baby I'm alright, oh

Let's do this right
With just a kiss goodnight
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Why do I like this song? Isn't it obvious? I want THIS...... I long for this feeling...

I'm convinced I'll never have this feeling......

But it's still an awesome song, and I think it's one of there best... I see another Grammy in their future......

And remember, life is just like music, sometimes you just have to change the playlist......
