I'Ve Scribbled This Song For You

I've Scribbled This Song For You...


I'm wasting my days,
my empty nights too,

I should have held on,
but I simply lost you,

now I stagger along,

wearing broken smiles,
in between hell and you,
there's a million miles,

yes, I should have kept,
you close to my skin,

soaking your warmth,
but you were laughing,

at my foolish grin...


now I'm all broken,
and torn apart,

but what the hell,
I was always late,
for the tolling of the bell,

and now...

now I stagger along,

wearing broken smiles,
in between hell and you,
there's a million miles,

so kiss me now like you once did,
I'm tired of being so carefully hid,


la laa laa la laa laa laa...


(repeat to fade)


:-)

Do you write music as well, homeboy? I sure hope you do, because this piece definitely needs to be sung. I love your gentle side. :)

Many, many thanks, fellow compatriot! Alas, if I had the voice I'd sing this, oh what the hell, I'm gonna sing it heartily anyways! Thanks again for your kind and warm words, as always. Ciao...
