“Probably Wouldn’t Be This Way,” A Song From Her Album
Today we will listen to one of LeAnn Rimes’ single from her album This Woman. “Probably Wouldn’t Be This Way” is a sad song that at first will make you think that it is about a woman feeling sad because her lover left her. However, as you listen further, you will realize that she was actually grieving the death of her lover.
“You ought to see the way these people look at me
When they see me ’round here talking to this stone
Everybody thinks I’ve lost my mind”
She tries to live every day like nothing has changed but she always ends up imagining him still being there. The music video was released and LeAnn Rimes starred on the video as the lover who lost her man.
