Unfinished

She was shaking when she turned to me and said

I feel like your singing about your past as though

It was right here and now

She begged and I assured her that songs would change with time

But the distance from my heart to my hand is longer than it needs to be

And I sat down to write you a song

But this is all that I had.

It seems to me that I took too long

Cause here I am and you are gone

And I only got one line to a song

That I am proud to sing out loud

A love song. Is that too much to ask? You put your hate and bitterness to a tune

Why not throw a melody over how much you love me?

Well, I was writing that song for you that you wanted more than anything

I was working up the perfect words

That would make you cry just hear me sing

This is all that I had, but this is all that I had

It seems to me that I took too long

Cause here I am and you are gone

And I only got one line to a song

That I am proud to sing out loud

You are my favorite everything

That's all I got.

Everything

You are my favorite everything

That's all I got...
