I have had lyrics pouring out of me lately and I wrote this in about 15 minutes. The concept is a late night walk between two young people, maybe having just met or maybe relatively new companions and the awkwardness that situation ensnares.
Walk
I'm counting the streetlights
It's all I can do
Now out on this long road
Starin' at my shoes
Hand in hand walking ou cares away
Hand in hand we're walking away
The skyline reaches high
Towering above the rest
My hopes and fears are numbered
larger than this addresss
Hand in hand watching our fears fly by
Hand in hand we're watching it fly
The night air breathes cold
I'm blowin' out smoke
My mouth stifles these words
They come out as a choke
Hand in hand talking through the night
Hand in hand we're talking tonight
A collection of songs and poems created by one man who dares to write them down. Huzzah!
