Notes About The Poem


Idea: Can be targeted at the songwriter’s muse but I targeted at my inspiration from God

Think About You

So much going on in the world today
It’s even hard to believe some days
Some let it cloud their point of view
Not me, all I think about is You

All the noise can make you feel undone
But if you can spread love with just a song
Yeah there’s a lot to wade through
Not for me, all I think about is You

And even if I sing a little off key
Some words are made to set us free
I can’t hold’em back
Even when they sound a little blue
Yeah, I just look up, at the sky
And think about You

We know there’s good all around to see
It just needs a little help from you and me
Some may need help on what they can do
Not me, I think about You

And even if I sing a little off key
Some words are made to set us free
I can’t hold’em back
Even when they sound a little blue
I just look up, at the sky
And think about You

Don’t let’em get you blue
Maybe try to find the song in you
And..

Even if I sing a little off key
Some words are made to set us free
I can’t hold’em back
Even when they sound a little blue
I just look up, at the sky
And think about You

Yeah, look up at the sky
And think about You

Big thanks. I am writing songs in Nashville these days too. This one in another form will go to demo. I'm not good at self promotion but my first song to "make it" is called WHY NOT ME. It is number 2 on christian country charts (via Corey Farlow), and it's coming out from Heartlandrecords.net with Jeff Cook (Alabama), William Shatner, Neal McCoy, and Home Free on it. you can test drive it on iTunes. hope you like it.
