Walayee Poet Lay Whitlock-Ishway Poet Lyric

Sing a Song Poem

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared beneath the stars alone
How could I have ever known
The way it all would end
The way it all would go

Please forgive me – I know not what I do
Please forgive me – every word I say is true
Please forgive me – I can’t stop loving you

He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
He finally drank away my memory
I found him face down in the pillow
With a note that said I’ll love you till I die

Please forgive me – I know not what I do
Please forgive me – every word I say is true
Please forgive me – I can’t stop loving you

I’m glad I didn’t know 
The way it all would end
The way it all would go

•	Verse 1 & 5 Garth Brooks – The Dance
•	Verse 2 & 4 Bryan Adams – Please forgive me
•	Verse 3 Brad Paisley – Whiskey Lullaby

Andrea Dietrich March 28, 2012 at 10:15 PM Hey, sweetie. I really enjoyed these lines. especially the whiskey lullaby, one of my favorite country songs. All three are GREAT songs. If you did not win in this contest, I can tell you what happened. You were supposed to choose the same artist with his or her different songs. Anyway, it still ended up a lovely poem.

Joe Maverick March 11, 2012 at 2:09 PM Quite unique Lay; the way you have worked these into a common theme, thank you for the comment and i will be visiting your spot again a bit later on.. and hope you score high with this.)
