    Lyrics:
    I'm home alone again
    And you're out hangin with your friends
    So you say
    Somehow I know it's not quite that way
    It's getting pretty late
    And you haven't checked on me all day
    When I
    called you didn't answer
    Now I'm feeling like your ignoring me
    I wish that you were home
    Holding me tight in your arms
    And I wish I could go back
    To the day before we met
    And skip my regret
    I wish I wasn't in love with you
    So you couldn't hurt me
    it just ain't fair the way you treat me
    No you don't
    deserve me
    Wasting my time thinking bout you when you ain't never gon change
    I wish I wasn't in love with you so I
    wouldn't feel this way

Thank God this song was out when I needed it the most because in that dark space, I could not put words to the emotions, but this was it!!!! It got me through! God definitely blessed Heather with the power of healing in her voice.

      Don't get me wrong, I admire Heather's immense vocal talent but it would be more accurate to say she's among the best of her time.
      Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Lara Fabian are her contemporaries (Lisa Fischer also released her debut album around that time too).
      I don't know about her beating them but I know she's among the best.

But, we as men also endure pain and suffering behind a meaningful relationship to us. I’m there now. See her at work every night and she treats me like I’m her event or I mistreated her.

    I know this song was written and sung by one of greatest soulful female singers. However, brothers, we get hurt to just like women do. And especially in these days and times. There are good brothers out there that’s getting hurt and played also! Yes……. We handle it hurts differently but pain is pain! And when a man truly Loves a woman he’s in pain begins her actions too. Especially when he’s been 100 to her.

    To anyone alone in their room hurting right now over the breakup of a relationship or the fact he or she doesn't look at you that way or love you like you love them I pray for your peace. Outside of God, there is another person that you can truly fall in love with, and that person is you. After you grieve, and that's OK, start taking yourself out on dates. Start treating yourself to the very best life can offer in anything and everything Don't be pompous or arrogant or prideful, but be a man or a woman that understands his or her value and know that you will be highly sought after not necessarily because of your looks or your intellect but because you are confident, self-assured, bold, and visionary. Up until this point, you have sold yourself short because you have put your stock in how someone feels about you and if someone deems you worthy to love when, as a matter of fact, you have to determine if they are worthy to be in your life. Cry those tears out if you must, but after you finish understand that you will never ever let your heart come to this point again because of the way you feel about yourself as a man or a woman who knows their worth. Do not chase after trash or give your pearls to pigs who wallow in the mud. Remember, the only person who can stop you from being happy fulfilled and joyful is you.
