I’m in the process of writing a song. Well, the words just kind of poured out of me but the music will take a bit longer. I’ll record the completed song with me singing and playing guitar once I’ve gotten a rhythm and tune.
I sat down to write, you know
About the places that I’d like to go
And the things that I would like to do for you
Wouldn’t you know the words came out all wrong
So I decided to put them in a song
‘Cause wrong or right, the words, they all are true
You came to me as though from a dream
And now anywhere I am, it seems
There’s a reason for me to thank God for you
I spend my days reaching up so high
That it seems I’m up above the sky
But the truth is what I’m reaching for is you
The sounds I hear, the air I breathe
Your gentle touch is a reprieve
From the things that tear me down from day to day
Icarus tried to touch the sky
But he went up much too high
‘Cause he didn’t have you to help him along the way
The time that we’ll soon spend apart
Lonely nights will break my heart
Alone in a bed that’s made for two
But it helps for me to know that you know
As the days go by, oh so slow
Everything that I do, I do for you
