Hitting the Nail on the Head

So it's driving me crazy that I don't have the album, yet. That I have to wait until I get off work to go get it. So, naturally...to feed into that craziness, I'm reading the lyrics of the new songs on the Bon Jovi website. I tend to be one of those obscure song fans. My favorite songs are the ones that never made the charts because they were never released as singles. The one song on the album that the band probably added because they needed one more song. Those are usually my favorites...but they usually say just about everything I'm feeling. Although I haven't heard the music to go with these words, I can already tell this is going to be my favorite song from Have A Nice Day...simply because I'm almost in tears reading it.

It's called Welcome To Wherever You Are:

Maybe we're all different but we're still the same
We all got the blood of Eden running through our veins
I know sometimes it's hard for you to see
You're caught between just who you are and who you want to be

If you feel alone and lost and need a friend
Remember every new beginning is some beginning's end

Welcome to wherever you are
This is your life; you made it this far
Welcome, you got to believe
That right here, right now
You're exactly where you're supposed to be
Welcome to wherever you are

When everybody's in and you're left out
And you feel you're drowning in the shadow of a doubt
Everyone's a miracle in their own way
Just listen to yourself, not what other people say

When it's seems you're lost, alone and feeling down
Remember everybody's different; just take a look around

Welcome to wherever you are
This is your life; you made it this far
Welcome, you got to believe
Right here, right now
You're exactly where you're supposed to be

Be who you want to be
Be who you are
Everyone's a hero
Everyone's a star

When you want to give up and your heart's about to break
Remember that you're perfect; God makes no mistakes

Welcome to wherever you are
This is your life; you made it this far
Welcome, you got to believe
Right here, right now
You're exactly where you're supposed to be
And I say welcome…
I say welcome…
Welcome…
