You Are My Guitar

I'm not really alone. This is my voice, The one that sings, and you are my guitar. A mute, without my music, not by choice. Crippled tongue shyness, keeps me afar. My midnight dreams of perfect melody; This is my humble voice, on whispers flown, and your voice together, in harmony as it would be, if our souls were our tones. Sure, my heart is breaking, no words to say Yes, I feel like crying, my love is true This is my only voice, the only way is in this song, that I can be with you On silver winds, hear what my heartsong brings. My voice, my guitar. Listen! Touch the strings.
