I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WOULD BE YOU ❤️ | 15 Traditional Country Songs, One Love Story

❤️ I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WOULD BE YOU ❤️ 15 traditional country songs. One story. One first love that was never completely forgotten. “I Always Thought It Would Be You” tells the story of two childhood sweethearts who grew up next door to each other in a little country town. They rode bicycles together, walked to school, spent their summers side by side, and insisted they were “just friends” even when everybody else already knew. Somewhere along the way, friendship became puppy love, puppy love became their first kiss, and by seventeen they were certain they had forever figured out. Then college acceptance letters arrived. He went east. She went west. At first, his letters came every Tuesday. Sunday nights were reserved for long-distance phone calls. They promised a few states could never change what they had. But life had other plans. The letters became postcards. The Sunday calls became some Sundays... then every now and then. There was no big fight and no final goodbye. Somewhere between two states, they simply lost each other. Years passed. They found other people, married good partners, and built separate lives. Then decades later, they saw each other again at their high school reunion. Older now, they talked about their families, their hometown, their college years, old teachers, and the memories they still shared. They talked about everything... except them. And driving home that night, Emely remembers the girl she was at seventeen and quietly admits something she had carried with her all those years: When she imagined growing old beside someone… she always thought it would be him. ❤️ 🎵 TRACKLIST 00:00 You Were the Boy Next Door 03:54 Somewhere Along the Way I Fell for You 08:21 Everybody Knew Before We Did 11:55 Our First Kiss Behind the Old High School 15:55 We Thought We Had Forever 19:56 You Went East and I Went West 23:46 Your Letters Came Every Tuesday 27:45 Sunday Nights Were Made for Calling You 31:53 Somewhere Between Two States We Lost Us 36:40 I Heard You Found Somebody 40:26 I Married a Good Man Anyway 44:18 Your Wedding Picture Found Its Way to Me 48:14 I Saw You at Our Reunion 52:47 We Talked About Everything but Us 57:33 I Always Thought It Would Be You 🎶 Traditional country storytelling with female vocals, pedal steel guitar, fiddle, acoustic guitar, upright bass, country drums, honky-tonk piano, and the warm nostalgic sound of classic country music.
