~ don't you know ?~

~lyrics~





Wrapped inside my solitude I ponder
if I’ll ever find the man, he’ll take my hand
And together we will walk along the sands whispering plans,
without demands
He’ll understand

Oh...together we’ll be free
Oh… within his eyes I’ll see
 reflections more than me

I’ll find my reason to let go
Don’t you know?

But then… I re-a-lize I’m still alone
and crying in the dark; Love missed it’s mark
And so I’m left to ponder now, the why and how
the if and what-ifs… that went by
My heart denies

oh…I’m trapped within the blue
oh…what’s a girl to do,
if love never rings true?

Always a reason to let go
Don’t you know?

There’ve been…some men who’ve come and passed so close
they feel my energy, a glimpse of me
Sometimes they see... but for so many reasons the end result
I’m just contingency,
when they're lonely

oh…what’s this girl to do?
Oh… my heart wants someone too
Before my time is through

I don’t want reason to let go
Don’t you know?

So-once-again I'm-trapped in solitude
and pond'ring if I'll ever find a man, to take my hand
And together we will walk along the sands whispering plans
without demands
he'll understand


please understand....

    Definitely country.

    This feels like it would have a solid country feel to it, the lyrics are very relatable. Wishin' and hopin'

    Good stuff here, do you write music as well?

      Hello Henri...so nice of you to visit.

      Hmmm probably not so much country, but I stole the music that I wrote this to. In the throws of writers block, I heard the song, "Hey Delilah", and the darn thing wouldn't get out of my head. Anyway...next thing you know..I'm writing this...to that tune. A bit convoluted to suit the words that eventually came out but yeah...the music in my head is not my own.

      I wish I could write music...its rare that I even write lyrics.

      Speaking of writing though...its been a while since I got your cd... Any plans to cut a new one?

      Hugs and thanks...

    ...without music...

    With that acoustic guitar across your lap in your photograph and lyrics of this song to bang around in my head -- sadly, I don't think I can appreciate it's full value without hearing it accompanied by music. But the story, the lines, the theme seems to be a story of saddness. I hope there is much more brightness and many more smiles than this lyric invokes in me.

      Ah...but therein lies the problem. I've done the "love the one you're with", It's very wonderful for a while, but eventually, you just find you need more. Welcome back Mike!
