Long Nights

Long nights
I need no advice
For staring at space
The time that I waste

Hypnotized
By your lunar eyes
And this magic place
The time that I waste

And you say "forgive me..."
But what can I do?
Follow these dreams
Or stay here...
Stay here with you.

Blown days
I spin through your maze
And multiply
The reasons I die

Warm rain
I guess I'm insane
But dignified
The reasons I die

And you say "forgive me..."
But what can I do?
Follow these dreams
Or stay here...
Stay here with you.

    - ahhh- a pick up song- Who'da thunk you had ulterior motives?

    I like this- it feels softer than some of your work. A more gentle touch comes through here.

    How I love poems and lyrics that are simple simple simple, but filled with meaning that jumps out and slaps ya . You know, I went to Austin this weekend for the Austin music festival and one of the stages was devoted to local artists. After hearing some of your stuff through the links you post here, I would say you could have rocked many of them off the stage .

    Anyway, for what it is worth, I like this one very much. It is straightforward and to the point, yet very musical even without the music.

    Not at all, I've met Lisa, and she's quite talented.
    This song is in the key of d-minor and it sounds like
    an old spanish folk song actually, a lament (if you will).

    The repeating lines are strong. I'm not sure about the message, but it might probably sound better in song.
