Finally .... Emotionally unstable

I've always been a fan of Stacy Ann Ferguson. Even when she came out with her first album back in the 90s (she was part an all girl group called : Wild Orchid - FYI - shes the blond bomb shell) You're probably wondering who the heck I'm talking about - you all know her by the name of Fergie.

When I purchased her album - The Dutchess, apart from loving all the tunes I particularly fell in love with her last track entitled Finally (featuring John Legend). The words were simply beautiful and I envisioned having this tune play during my preparation the day of my wedding. Last week, the song played on the radio while I was on my way to work... and I started crying. Its the first time really that I start crying of joy for something wedding related. It was kinda weird. (If this is a preview of the actual wedding day ... someone crazy glue a kleenex box to my hand)


She preformed a preview of this song at the Grammys. It gives me shivers everytime I hear it. You can hear the album version here.

Here are the lyrics:

Ever since I was a baby girl I had a dream
Cinderella theme, crazy as it seems
Always knew that deep inside
That there would come that day. But I would have to wait
Make so many mistakes
I couldn't comprehend as I watched it unfold
This classic story told
I left it in the cold
Walking through unopened doors that led me back to you
Each on unlocking more of the truth
I finally stopped tripping on my youth
I finally got lost inside of you
I finally know I needed to grow And finally my mate has set my soul

Chorus
Finally now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something strange and new is happening
Finally now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally

I remember the beginning
You already knew
I acted like a fool
Just trying to be cool

Frontin like it didn't matter
I just ran away
Put on another face
Was lost in my own space
Found what it was like to hurt selfishly
Scared to give up me, afraid to just believe
I was in a jealous insecure pathetic place
Stumbled through the mess that I had made
Finally got out of my own way
I finally start living for today
I finally know I needed to grow
And finally my mate has met my soul
Finally now my destiny can begin Though we will have our differences
Something strange and new is happening
Finally now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally
Finally,Finally
Finally now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something beautiful is happening
Finally now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally
Finally,finally

Anybody else love this song?
Do you have a song which makes you emotional unstable...lol?
