Ever find a song and think 'wow' I can so related. This is one such song by Joe Nichols.

Joe Nichols – Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off
She said I’m going out with my girlfriends
Margaritas at the holiday inn
Oh have mercy my only thought
Was tequila makes her clothes fall off
I told her put an extra layer on
I know what happens when she drinks Patron

Her closet’s missing half the things she bought

Yeah tequila makes her clothes fall off

 

She’ll start by kicking out of her shoes
Lose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

 

Them panty hose aint gonna last too long
If the dj puts bon jovi on
She might come home in a table cloth
Yeah tequila makes her clothes fall off

 

She can handle any champagne brunch
A bridal shower with Bacardi punch
Jello shooters full of Smirnoff
But tequila makes her clothes fall off

 

She’ll start by kicking out of her shoes
Lose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

 

She don’t mean nothing
She's just havin fun
Tomorrow she say oh what have I done
friends will joke about the stuff she lost
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off
Oh tequila makes her clothes fall off
Oh tequila makes her clothes fall off

 

And some lyrics just seem to be made for writing too. This one by Faith Hill could be for Buffy after Angel leaves for LA, Spike in Rome,  Anya for Xander, etc etc.

Like We Never Loved At All Lyrics
Faith Hill

 

You never looked so good
As you did last night
Underneath those city lights
There walking with your friend
Laughing at the moon
I swear you looked right through me
But i'm still living with your goodbye
And you're just going on with your life

 

[chorus]
How can you just walk on by
Without one tear in your eye
Don't you have the slightest feelings left for me
Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all

 

You, i hear you're doing fine
Seems like you're doing well
As far as i can tell
Time is leaving us behind
Another week has passed
And still i haven't laughed yet
So tell me what your secret is
To letting go like you did, like you did

 

[chorus]

Did you forget the magic
Did you forget the passion
Did you ever miss me
Ever long to kiss me

[chorus]

And this one by Kenny Chesney, easily could be for Angel after Buffy and/or Cordy died, Spike for Buffy, Willow to Tara you get the idea.

 

Who You’d Be Today
Kenny Chesney

 

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
I feel you everywhere I go.
I see your smile, I see your face,
I hear you laughin' in the rain.
I still can't believe you're gone.

 

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder

 

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
Settle down with a family,
I wonder what would you name your babies?
Some days the sky's so blue,
I feel like I can talk to you,
An' I know it might sound crazy.

 

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,

Who you'd be today?

Today, today, today.
Today, today, today.

 

Instrumental Break.

 

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
The only thing that gives me hope,
Is I know I'll see you again some day.

 

If you get moved to use the lyrics for a story in any genre, let me know. I'd love to read them.
