Lauren Alaina - Three Lyrics






Three weeks
before I could even meet
my brother's son.
Didn't see him turn one or two.

Three months
I haven't made Sunday service once.
I'm out on the road
praying alone
every night for a sign
that I'm doing this right.
And I'm right where I'm supposed to be

Mama said, "You'll be a star."
And daddy said, "You're gonna go far.
All you gotta do is sing your heart out."
A lot of miles, a lot of tears
have given me some of my best years.
There's so much I had to miss out on
six years of missing home
for three minutes on the radio.

Three years
of wishing that he was here
holding my hand.
No, I didn't plan
for those three words
to be the ones that hurt.
They don't sound the same
from so far away.

Mama said, "You'll be a star."
And daddy said, "You're gonna go far.
All you gotta do is sing your heart out."
A lot of miles, a lot of tears
have given me some of my best years.
There's so much I had to miss out on
six years of missing home
for three minutes on the radio.

I'll do it for the three girls at my show
who saved up for the third row.
And the three times that I heard
just this week that my words
were sung by a three-year-old:
hairbrush for a microphone.
Little girl with a dream,
And that girl was me, yeah

My mama said, "You'll be a star."
And daddy said, "You're gonna go far.
All you gotta do is sing your heart out."
A lot of miles, a lot of tears
have given me my best years.
There's so much I had to miss out on
six years of missing home.
But I'd spend fifty more gone
for three minutes on the radio.

Lauren Alaina Three Comments
  1. R.... M....

    ❤❤❤

  2. S.... A....

    Lauren alaina three song make me so sad because me and my brother has to miss out living together it was hard for me and my brother when was so close

  3. S.... C....

    This song really touched my heart and moved me to tears. I’m so happy for Lauren. She deserves only the best, and omg the accompaniment is just absolutely stunning. Perfect balance of the instruments and the voice. I loved every bit of this video! Thanks so much for sharing! 😊

  4. a.... c....

    How can I get this song in Australia

  5. X.... ....

    Haley was robbed. Haley and Scotty were the best singers in 2011!
    This loser sucks.

  6. T.... ....

    Beautiful!!!! You can tell you think about the situation & just smile. I would love to see you in concert one day.

  7. J.... D....

    This song captures what everyone is thinking and feeling. Lauren is very underrated just like many of the young women of country. Radio jocks have it in their head that no on likes music from the female perspective. I know the older women, and some of the men, are trying to figure out how to fix this. Idea: why don't we get more women in the radio industry...djs, producers, owners.

  8. K.... B....

    so beautiful, so powerful

  9. n.... ....

    Lauren, this live version is so incredible. puts the recorded studio version to shame!!!

  10. C.... F....

    I see a Hallmark movie in your future ✨🦋💕🦋

  11. E.... N....

    Such a beautiful song. Wonderful singer.

  12. b.... h....

    ... that's how you do it.... People find out FAME ruins lives. May The Lord always keep you grounded..Fuck being famous and making money.. do what you were born to do, sing.. not for any other reason... I love this girl... i dont want her to blow up and be a big ass star.. so the world and all in it can taint her.. she'll never be the same.. that's what the world does to you.. fucks you all up.. changes you. and by the time you realize it.. you arent the same anymore. Keep her surrounded by your Glory Lord Jesus.. In Jesus name, We pray, Amen.

  13. 3.... ....

    Terrible song by an amateur singer 😄😅😄😅😄

  14. G.... L....

    Sending bunches of love from Ft O! So very proud of you Lauren!

  15. S.... W....

    💜💛💚

  16. j.... b....

    thats the smoothest sound ive ever heard

  17. Z.... G....

    Why can’t we buy this in South Africa? And it’s not on Apple Music ? 😐

  18. k.... ....

    Very touching song and superstar presentation. This girl has been through a lot for one so young. You are loved.

  19. G.... W....

    I thinks she has some problems on range.

  20. R.... A....

    Girl if you sing at a church I swear I’ll change my life to the lord! Cuz that voice is a breath of fresh air..

  21. D.... C....

    I was offered a record deal in the 90's...no not the 1890's. I was so excited in that moment, but on the ride home reality hit hard. I realized that I was a husband and a daddy, and leaving them for a life on the road was not how I was built. I am reminded everyday that I made the right decision when I spend time with my beautiful, precious grandchildren! Because of that one major decision 25 years ago...now my best friends are a 6 year old and a 4 year old! My life, my grandbabies. Go carve your path Lauren. You can start your family after you've accomplished your goals. Now is the time to be a little bit selfish. It's all about your definition of the question "what is the secret of life". The answer is inside you! When you lay down at night and close your eyes, and no outside voices are there to influence you...only your voice is heard! what does your mind reveal...that's your answer...that's YOUR secret to life! Enjoy your journey, your voice is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your gift with us!

  22. S.... M....

    Wow what a voice!

  23. M.... H....

    Dang! Her voice is so amazing. Why are we not hearing her on the radio more!????? Take the pop country off the radio and put her on!!! Reminds me of the old days when country had soul and a story. Love this song!

  24. P.... A....

    Just lovely

  25. M.... R....

  26. T.... K....

    She has no future!😣🍟😣😣😣😣

  27. W.... S....

    Wow!! This is so Good.... Powerful lyrics 🙏👏👏

  28. Z.... ....

    Amazing voice and talent !

  29. T.... K....

    She looks horrible. Haley should've won 😅😅😅 she can't sing

    T.... K....

    how old are you? 13? when are you going to let it go? You are only hurting yourself with all this foolishness!! How many accounts have you created just to bash Lauren?? ...very sad!!!

  30. S.... C....

    I truly enjoyed this wonderful performance. Lauren is one of my inspirations to sing and I'll always be her fan. I really wish her all the success that the world has to offer her. She truly deserves more recognition, and has a very beautiful personality. I really hope to meet her one day.


    To the people making rude and derogatory comments: I don't even know where you even got the information from where it was ever said that Lauren bullied others or wasn't respectful to people at all. None of what you have said is true about her package. She has incredible vocals and she is herself. Remember Oscar Wilde's quote: "Be yourself. Everyone else is taken." If you have nothing nice to say about Lauren or her music, please kindly stop watching her videos or listening to her songs. That will make a big difference if you didn't watch something you didn't like instead of clicking on the video just to make rude and false remarks about someone like Lauren, because trust me, whatever you guys say about others are reflections of yourselves, not them. Leave Lauren alone and her fans alone and let us have a chance to appreciate Lauren's songs because there are a lot of people that actually are huge fans of her music. I stand by the words, "love only." Either let go of the pent-up hate, be kind or move on. It's as simple as that. Whether you guys like it or not, I will support Lauren all the way through. #Alainer4Ever

  31. c.... 8....
