Since I Found You (1986)
No use looking for a juke joint honey
Wasting my time and money those days are through since I found you
Used to leave love in the morning light
Now I get the felling that just one night won’t do since I found you
You’re the only one that I’m dreaming of
Well I don’t miss doing what I use to do
I don’t miss nothing till I found you
I don’t miss nothing till I found you
No more walking down lonely street
Wearing hole in both of my feet and feeling blue since I found you
Don’t really matter what the boys are doing
All I really care about is you and me staying true since I found you
Since I found you honey I found love
You’re the only one that I’m dreaming of
Well I don’t miss doing what I use to do
I don’t miss nothing till I found you
I don’t miss nothing till I found you
Since I found you honey I found love
You’re the only one that I’m dreaming of
Well I don’t miss doing what I use to do
I don’t miss nothing till I found you
I don’t miss nothing till I found you
(Repeat to end)
The song "Since I Found You" by Sweethearts of the Rodeo is a heartwarming country love song about finding someone special and realizing that all the past experiences and relationships were futile until they found "the one." The artist recounts how previously, they would frequent juke joints, leave love in the morning light, and feel blue walking down the lonely street. However, everything changes since they found their significant other, who they are dreaming of and vow to stay true to. The lyrics depict a love that is all-consuming, and the artist states that they don't miss anything they did before they met their love, as they now have them in their lives.
The song is a classic example of country love songs that have simple yet relatable lyrics that touch the heart of their audience. The artists sing in unison, creating a soothing effect that brings the message home. The song's composition is simple, with a basic melody that stays close to traditional country music roots. It has a upbeat tempo, excellent for dancing, and yet the musical arrangement does not distract from the lyrics, which remain the centerpiece.

Anybody who can listen to this and not smile and tap his toes along with the beat is just utterly soulless. What a pretty song. Thanks for posting this, whoever you are.

When country music was still real. Unfortunately it no longer is. Even Willie's Roadhouse, who specializes in traditional country music, doesn't play this.

I was 10 when this came out and this WAS the NEW Country back than. Such a stark change in style and sound from the Country of the 70's...but yet a world away from what they call Country today. It never ends, it just changes.

Just watched the old Jeff and Kim movie, Nadine from the 80s when we were all baby faced. Loved the music by Sweethearts of the Rodeo. Since I Found You is a good song worth learning and singing. Thanks
