‘One Part of Me’
I have put together another song this week. I guess May has been my month for song writing. Hopefully I can keep this trend up. <smile> I wrote this song to put into words my lack of vocabulary, thoughts, and self-expression with a special girl in my life. I have a feeling there will be some changes to it vocally but for now I thought I would get it recorded and out.
You can hear the song here
‘One Part of Me’
I lay before you a broken man
built up, torn down and built back up again
we lay in silence I watch your eyes
you stare back in mine and see so many lives
and I know
I know
you’ve told me what you’ve seen
but I assure you, that’s just one part of me
one part of me.
What’s to say that hasn’t been said?
ohh wait, that conversation is still in my head
my mouth is waiting for your world to see
but my voice still hides itself inside of me
and I know
I know
you’ve told me what you’ve seen
but I assure you, that’s just one part of me
one part of me
my eyes take up the part where my breath has lapsed
they take on the weight of this vocal task
My heart sinks as it knows it has more
but my mind still holds back what it wants to pour
and I know
I know
you’ve told me what you’ve seen
but I assure you, that’s just one part of me
one part of me.
