She's Not You Lyrics

Wow. I just read where Elvis was born in 1935. Seems hard to believe, but I suppose only because he appeared larger than life and his music (and movies) are still with us everywhere. Cool...I love trivia.

I heard this song on the radio this morning. To me the song's more about the singer being exactly where he needs to be. He just needs to admit that it's where he belongs; where's he's happiest, most comfortable; and feels he has the most opportunity to live the life he wishes to live. There's a freedom and a loss of dread that comes with acceptance of any kind.

I used to view it as a very negative song, but no longer. It's not the literal meaning that's important. Kind of have to read between the lines on this one.

Anxious to see another Elvis movie...very sappy, but cutsie and upbeat. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy on the inside, and that's a good feeling regardless if the movie won't win any awards.
