    Lyrics:
    Been staring at my ceiling
    Trying to find a reason
    Why picking up this guitar
    Has gotten to be so hard
    There was a time the
    Sound of these strings
    Would fix just about anything
    Maybe I was naive
    Maybe I was thirteen
    When I sang... just to sing
    Instead of living large
    Sometimes I’d rather be
    Catching fireflies than love bugs
    Telling stories instead of lies
    Skipping stones instead of getting stoned
    To try to find some peace of mind
    Hopping ditches instead of planes
    Pulling wagons instead of these chains
    Sometimes instead of keeping this up
    I’d rather be somewhere, nowhere in Carolina
    When smokin’ and drinkin’
    Was just every other weekend
    Sneaking out late at night
    Too young for the neon lights
    When the smell of wintergreen and cologne
    Was my uncle’s ‘79 bronco
    When the road was a friend
    I’d give anything
    To live that again
    Gotta get back to
    When I sang... just to sing
    I thought it’d do me good
    To write a song just for me
    So I’d rather be
    Catching fireflies than love bugs
    Telling stories instead of lies
    Skipping stones instead of getting stoned
    To try to find some peace of mind
    Hopping ditches instead of planes
    Pulling wagons instead of these chains
    Sometimes instead of keeping this up
    I’d rather be somewhere, nowhere in Carolina
    Carolina
    Maybe this city is getting to my head
    But I’ll confess, if the music’s dead
    And home is all I’ll have left
    It’d be a pity
    But I think I’d be just fine
    I’d have a clear blue sky
    And plenty of time
    To hide and remember
    Why I sang... just to sing
    Dreams would stay dreams
    But at least I’d be
    Catching fireflies than love bugs
    Telling stories instead of lies
    Skipping stones instead of getting stoned
    To try to find some peace of mind
    Hopping ditches instead of planes
    Pulling wagons instead of these chains
    Sometimes instead of keeping this up
    I’d rather be somewhere, nowhere in Carolina

      No idea if she is country or what. She just sings whatever song is given her. The reason she is not making it is because she is not believable.

    Wow.... absolutely beautiful! Takes me back to Carolina! I grew up in Asheville. As a kid I have fond memories. No cell phones. No social media. Our entertainment was neighborhood friends. Sticks and acorns were our toys. Find a good rock and play tic tac toe or hop scotch on the street. A nice banana seat bike to explore the world on. Tackle ball games in the yard. Hearing mom calling you home for supper. I feel blessed to have lived that life. I'm 62 now and tear up when I hear music that takes me back home. Thank you Lanie for opening up my heart to these emotions. God bless you young lady 🙏🏻

    I would pay good money to see you in concert. Your heartfelt music and lyrics are are as good, if not better than a lot of artists on the radio now. There should be a push to get your music out on the radio.

    • @MelodyRebornStudios

      @KeithProvins she can do that easily enough by sending a demo to the stations. But I am positive that she has help with making her way to the top. I believe maybe even the same person who tried to help me. (It does sound that way from how he spoke) If she didn't have help, I'm positive that she wouldn't have been on stage at the country music festival. Only a handful get in each year of the festival

    This one should be high on the charts. How it's not is beyond me- beautiful song Lanie

    • @MelodyRebornStudios
      @MelodyRebornStudios 3 місяці тому

      @haroldgriggs9614 she is still new to the music industry. And they play extreme hard-ball... so I do hope God watches over her or has someone doing it for her. They may not play as nice as one would think.
      Having said all of that. It was beautiful, but not her best. She has a powerful voice, and im waiting for her to let it out. Waiting for To be herself and to find out exactly who that is... then I think she will hit the charts.
      I'm waiting on my copyrights for the songs I've written. I think she would slay them. She is on her way to being a star. I would be honored, although it has a very rare, slim to none, chance of that happening, If she would sing one of my songs, I'd be ecstatic!
      And extra special bonus - if she slayed it, just by using either the music, lyrics, or both, I'd get royalties on it, every time someone listens to it... how awesome would that be, though!? 🤭🤗. Oof, well, a girl can dream...
      Just keep watching her, I'm positive Lanie will blow up once she finds herself. She may be on every chart by then.
      Ps. It is beautiful, but I'm not so sure country music is her best genre...

    Dear Lanie,
    Whatched your responce to haters, the scumbags wishing they could be in your class.
    Ignore them. Thats the thing about scumbags. If you ignore them they resolve into the scum they were breed from.
    Just be you like you've always been.
    I for one respect, adore and appreciate your talent and genuine soul.
    I love your music. Please ignore the trolls. If we don't acknowledge them they just disappear.

    WATCH over Lanie, O Lord, as her days increase; bless and guide her wherever she may be, keeping her unspotted from the world. Strengthen her when she stands; comfort her when discouraged or sorrowful; raise her up if she falls; and in her heart may thy peace which passeth understanding abide all the days of her life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
