Unfinished - Squint, Ed Stasium

She was shaking when she turned to me and said

i feel like your singing about your past as though

it was right here and now

she begged and i assured her that songs would change with time

but the distance from my heart to my hand is longer than it needs to be

and i sat down to write you a song

but this is all that i had.

it seems to me that i took too long

cause here i am and you are gone

and i only got one line to a song

that i am proud to sing out loud

a love song.

is that too much to ask?

you put your hate and bitterness to a tune

why not throw a melody over how much you love me?

well, i was writing that song for you that you wanted more than anything

i was working up the perfect words

that would make you cry just hear me sing

this is all that i had, but this is all that i had

it seems to me that i took too long

cause here i am and you are gone

and i only got one line to a song

that i am proud to sing out loud

you are my favorite everything

that’s all i got.

everything

you are my favorite everything

that’s all i got…
