Read: “Caravan”
Note: Something a little different this week. Instead of getting something for Michelle for Valentine’s Day (since I think it’s an abomination of a holiday) I thought about her and was inspired to write a song. A video of me playing the song will be posted later this week if I get up the guts to record it.
1.
I’ve thought myself
To be the perfect man
A million dreams
Will come true
I’ve failed to see
Just how hard it is
To make the world
See you for you
PC
I find myself
Wading every day
Waist deep
In things I’ve left behind
Something drags me on
2.
Define my friends
I’m not sure I can
Fraternal bonds
Forged in song
The lighter things
Like lifting up a glass
Cheer our lives
Make us strong
PC
Chorus
I know
It all can fade
It all can burn
Away
Except for you
3.
Define my love
I’m not sure I can
Safely caught
In the high rise net
A feeling so safe
More than I deserve
After tossing fire
Beneath the circus tent
PC
Chorus
4.
Define my faith
I’m not sure I can
And I’m not sure
I ever should
What I know
I’ve found all I need
My caravan
Through the woods
PC
Chorus

I concur. You must have the best girlfriend in the world.
