    Lyrics:
    All of these lines across my face
    Tell you the story of who I am
    So many stories of where I've been
    And how I got to where I am
    But these stories don't mean anything
    When you've got no one to tell them to
    It's true... I was made for you
    I climbed across the mountain tops
    Swam all across the ocean blue
    I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
    But baby I broke them all for you
    Because even when I was flat broke
    You made me feel like a million bucks
    You do and I was made for you

      @@mikamamma I haven't heard Shelby Lynn's music in awhile. She is not a current artist. I had a couple of her CD's in the late 90's. I am not sure if she still records music. She started out as country on the 1st CD that I bought and then went more bluesy on the 2nd CD. She played Johnny Cash's mom in the movie Walk the Line. Literally the only song I remember loving back then of hers is called something like "What About the Love We Made". I loved the soul in her voice. Just talking about this makes me want to explore her music again. 🙂

    i’m 19 years old and i had this song playing over and over again in my mind growing up, my mom used to sing me it as a kid but as i was too young i didn’t know the name or who sang it… but always had the “i was made for you” and the chorus stuck in my mind.
    now, almost 13 years later, i finally discovered the songs name and i can’t tell you how emotional it made me :’)
    this song brings back so many memories and trying to hang on to the very few lines i remembered was hard.
    but i can finally go back as many times as i want, and sing them over and over again, without being afraid of losing memories anymore.
    i hope if feels like a warm hug to you like it does to me.

      I think most people feel this way at multiple points in their lives. The other day, a girl I've known for a long time, who makes money, has all the nice things, is organized and type A, told me that her life is a mess and said that i have it all together, so it must be nice. I live with my in laws, struggle with ADHD, and feel like things are falling apart at least twice a week.

I have not heard such emotion in a voice since some singers from the 70's. She is in my hall of fame somewhere nestling beside my brain's endorphin maker

      Brandi has done other amazing work as well, & is also now part of a female group called Highwomen (a takeoff on the name of the male country supergroup called Highwaymen) ... most recently she has done a new album with Tanya Tucker, both singing with her & co-producing it along with Shooter Jennings ...

      Well I never knew this song existed until I saw "The Sun" peform it. But Obviously 37 million views speaks for itself. I don't believe beautiful music is diminished by having a Super Star (or even a Sun) make it "more beautiful" I think "The Sun" nailed it when she said (performing as "The Sun) gave people the chance to experience the essence of her without any preconceived notions of who, or what, she was. BINGO. I had years ago decided I did not like this person's voice ( I perceived it at too juvenile, and shrill) When I saw the Sun sing "The Story" I was amazed and I thought it to be one of the most beautiful vocal performances I had ever experienced. I never would have known "The Story" Brandi Carlisle or "The Sun" had I not happened to turn on the TV to watch some Netflix and stumbled across "The Masked Singer" instead.

    I cant believe I heard this song for the first time today while driving along the Hudson in the Adirondacks. It broke me and I needed it. So many losses and too many deaths contrasted with meaning barely unfolding and so little joy, it all just builds up to a moment when only something so powerful as these words sung from this voice releases the inexpressible, crushing inner vexation of the soul, and I can breathe again. Even for 5 minutes. It'll have to be enough. Thank you, God.

    "All of these lines across my face, tell you the story of who I am, so many stories of where I've been and how I got to where I am". These words saved me during many rounds of chemo and radiation. I was diagnosed with breast cancer when I had a kindergartener and a 4th grader. My boys were so young, I told my oncology team, bring it on, I can take it...I just have live long enough to get them through high school. The chemo took it's toll and aged me so much faster than my friends, it was hard to deal with. Now I know the lines across my face tell the story of where I've been. 15 years out and one boy has graduated from college and one who is a Junior...both are thriving and I celebrate life every day. Thank you, Brandi for putting into words, what I could not.
