MINOR CHORDS TO BE ADDED (IF I CAN OVERCOME JANUARY LAZINESS)
eternal waves
washing away
unwanted memories
nightmare days
how can i write a love song
when no one has ever loved me
but before you offer your pity
understand,
i never loved anyone either
spent the years
dreaming of you
dreams of wonder
how do you taste
how deep can your eyes
see into my soul
invented scenarios too
your lips caressed me
never whispering lies
always making me feel whole
Violin bows
guitar strums
ebony and ivory
entangled with drums
and that one day i asked
could i stop dreaming and
make us real
force of will
will you see me
so finally found you
and there i was
smiling at you
for real
my lips moving
determination proving
we were meant to be one
soughing wind
whispering wild words
silence broken only
by cawing birds
and i asked
can i stop dreaming now
can we make this real
i want to know
all those years ago
apart
afraid to start
reality
you look at me
but no sound
no song
can i hear
swallowed by fear
i turn away
Violin bows
guitar strums
ebony and ivory
entangled with drums
