about

I've always had a difficult time writing lyrics, so this is a song about that.

lyrics

A melody so sweetly sung,
But no words to put in its place
The letters swim through my head,
They want to be alone

I want to tell a story,
And sing it for you
Help me find these words,
And I can finish this song

I start and I stop
My mind goes too deeply
The simple words it wants to find
Play “hide and seek” with me

My voice wants to find the match,
It’s searching and searching.
I’ve got the chords,
The melody too

I sit here with my pen
Only scribbles show
Guitar by my side
It waits for me

I’ve got much to say,
Oh yes, I do
I just can’t find the way
To express it to you

I start and I stop
My mind goes too deeply
The simple words it wants to find
Play "hide and seek" with me


My voice wants to find the match,
It’s searching and searching.
I’ve got the chords,
The melody too

The words I do find
Will slowly come out
And insecurely,
I will sing my song
