Hope it goes without saying but I'll say it.. I write Character songs about life, love, loss in culture around us.....and true songs on the love of Jesus Christ
Most will probably say
You were a writer of songs
When they hear your name.....maybe that's true
but with your guitar and no choice for what poured out in your voice...
I think the songs wrote you
You grew up in a lie
Humming your own lullibyes
To hide the innocence you never knew
But no childhood melodies could chase away those ugly dreams
I think the songs wrote you
You were a lightning rod...for all the colors of
life in the honeysuckle blue
And nothing could hold ...your beautiful soul
That fate put music to
I think the songs wrote you
You soaked up everything
Like an antenna for the pain...
And the love you felt the nights she danced with you
Then the music was gone...but the love danced on and on
I think the songs wrote you
You were a lightning rod...for all the colors of
life in the honeysuckle blue
And nothing could hold ...your beautiful soul
That fate put music to
I think the songs wrote you
I think the songs wrote you
From Amazing Grace and Bibles
To Whiskeytown and bottles
You were always searching for the truth
From Piney River to the bar rooms
You let the world flow through you
Doing the only thing you knew to do
I think the songs wrote you
I think the songs wrote you
Most would probably say
You were a writer of songs
