We Could've Had Everything

The look you gave me 

when I knew you wouldn’t stay, 

the sounds you made in the night, 

made me hope for a brighter day 

 

You had a special hideaway place 

when things were looking too thin 

Holy birds there dismissed your sins 

they tuned your voice to a mandolin 

 

We could have had everything 

we could have had anything 

you turned winter into spring 

 

but you disappeared into the hills, 

your voice got lost in the forest green 

all I can see now are a few traces 

A different message, a different scene 

 

Out of all those hours we spent 

saying hello to life as it seemed 

out of it all the silences grew 

into a long sophisticated dream 

 

We could have had everything 

We could have had anything

  • Looks like you copied your lyrics over from a post on The Muse Forum...there's a reference to jgarcia658 who's a member there..I haven't seen him on TSF. Tell him about us!!

    Anyway, this is more of what you do. I like the lyrics here but this one sounds a bit disjointed to me...maybe the harmonica is a bit too random or something I dunno. Don't let that put you off though, I love what you do.😀
