    Wow. now that's the most basic way to describe depression right there. You tell everyone you're fine, you're dealing with your issues, but regardless of what you say or try to convince yourself of, the pain is always right there.

    I'd like to dedicate this song to my father who passed away on December 15th, 2014...he was 82 and had Alzheimer's AND Congestive Heart Failure, but even through all of that he ended up dying in his sleep early that morning...
    Dad introduced me to Shania's music when I was in middle school way before he got sick, and she quickly became one of my favorite artists, and we even gave each other a cassette copy of her album Up! the year it came out for Christmas, and this song was always one of my favorites...these days, every time I listen to it, I think back on the good times I had with him, and the time I spent taking care of him from the time he had his heart attack when I was in my early 20s, until the day he died...now I know the meaning behind this song...even though it's only been a month, I miss him terribly....I can't help but cry every time I listen to this song now because it hurts so much...sorry for the long story, and the spaces, but I just thought I'd share that with for those who lost someone close to them...Rest in Peace, dad... :'(

She will forever live on in your heart and in your memories. BAHHHH actually started crying while thinking of my dog.. You'll be in my prayers, dear.

Near the end, Daisy Became more of my world then she already was, and I am so glad looking back on it now, that I spent a much time with her as I possibly could. I created memories with her, I might not of had other wise... Don't be sad now.. Your dog is happy and healthy :) enjoy every day, you possibly can.

    This song DEFINITELY reminds me of my "passed" husband; he was definitely suffering before he passed... drugs, alcohol...it was soo sad..... but this song makes me feel, for the first time, he is alright. Because we used to listen to Shania Twain together and I can definitely imagine him playing this song for me, so I can be at peace... And even though you caused me a LOT of pain, mental scars, heartache, babe, I still love you and I've forgiven you. So happy for you, Geoff, you're in my heart. Love you..,God bless....

    "Don't think I'm lying 'round crying at night. There's not need to worry, I'm really alright."
    Yep, thats SO true... Has anyone who cheats with another cheater ever consider this? That they are both with a cheater. If they marry, like my cheating husband did, they will be forever wondering if the other one is off cheating again. What a life to create for yourself.

    Je re-écoute SHANIA TWAIN après 7 ans d'absence. J'aime cette chanteuse au delà de tout. C'est celle qui a apporté le plus grand renouveau à la musique Country Pop qui a déferlé sur le Canada et les USA. Actuellement elle est appréciée unanimement partout dans le monde. C'est une Très Grande Chanteuse, très scénique et très belle. Elle a renouvelé complètement le genre musical (Country pop).
    Je la met dans la même classe que la très grande CHAN MARSHALL qui a fait de même avec le Folk Soul.

    I know as a Grandfather that he surely must have loved you ! The drugs just masked his torment or difficult life. Please find the forgiveness in your heart understanding in Shania's words it will always hurt but its better to hurt than not have any feelings. I think you said goodbye to alot of Grandfathers...Thank you for that and remember him in your songs and prayers.

He''s now with a girl I don't know and he's happy and loves her and I still wish it was me, but yet again I'm happy for him for finding the girl he deserves. But I cant stop loving him. Here's the worest part. I am the forgiving type and I'm not begin forgiven for making a mistke.

My heart isn't my own anymore, he stole it from me...no, I gave it to him willingly and now he is gone from my life and he took my heart with him, a part of me that I will never get back.
    I miss him so much. I know he was the one for me, I just wish I was the one for him too

I think after this post I'm going to go to bed early. I feel sad, depressed, and zapped of energy. I literally feel like this song. I've seen Shania sing this in person in concert. I should be happy before Xmas. But I'm not. I just feel down & it literally & emotionally hurts that I'm breathing. I can't believe it!

    I miss him so much... My heart breaks every breath I take but I have not ended them because I live on a small ounce of hope, He'll remember to save me... But no matter what, he''ll always be my superman :'(

    i love a man who can't be honest with me and he really doesn't care that everything matters and once you think of another or add into your circle is showing interest to someone else and once you it that sent button you have stepped out into another realm that u can't take back..n all i ask is simplicity n honesty but i held my breathe for so long n i just can't keep doing this you just don't have any respect for me and my feelings..i'll always love u but i'm not ur only love...tc michael beatty

    No one understands the physical pain an emotional upheaval can cause! I do and agree with you! KristensMom
