This One's For You
I wrote a song for someone
She knows by name just who
It's not a dedication
Not this, this one's for you
It took some time to finish
But that's only because
If you rush you can dimish
The meaning, so you just pause
When you reach that dreaded moment
Every artist does despise
Looking at a blank slate
Staring back with blanker eyes
There are no words to sing to
No lyrics to peruse
It's only instrumental
But still my thoughts infuse
And fill each note and phrasing
Nothing there by chance
In quiet contemplation
I composed for you this dance
I hope you'll always like it
And listen now and then
Remembering I loved you
Each time it's played again
