Say the word


(Piano INTRO)
(Bass Begins)

She just walked away
She stopped, and she stood still
Leaning on the lamppost, glancing at me
Where do I stay tonight?
In your dreams, in your hopes
OR, in your heart

She said nothing
Nothing at all
She just stepped away to stay

Things I say to you
The trust I lay before you
I know they mean a lot to you

(Rhythm guitar BEGINS)

I know the pain
I am here to face it all
All you’ve got to do is to
Talk to me
There are no questions
No one’s looking for answers
Let the feelings flow
Drain them over me

(Rhythm Guitar STOPS)
(Piano SOLO)

You know I care for you
More than you think I do
Why don’t you let me come close to you?

You want me beside you
You want me to listen to you
You wish I was there
I say it aloud
You say nothing at all
You get close to me
But, I can’t get to you

(Rhythm Guitar BEGINS)

All you’ve got to do is to
Trust in me
There are no questions
No one’s looking for answers
Let the feelings flow
Drain them over me

(Bass SOLO)
(Guitar BEGINS)
(Drum BEGINS)
(SCALE CHANGE)

I’m going to scream it loud
I am here for you
I’ll burn in the sun
I’ll stay wet in the rain
But, I’ll be here for you
Look into my eyes
Do you think I’ll leave you?

You’ve got to say the word
You’ll know I’m here for you
Tell me you’ll be okay
And, let me breathe in too
Let me open your eyes
And, make you see the sky
I’ve chased the darkness away
And, I’m here to stay
Only if you want

(Guitar STOPS)

I know you’ve seen trust
Only to be blinded
I know you’ve fallen in love
Only to be betrayed
I know you’ve given yourself
Only to lose yourself
You think I’d be last to know
But, I’m the

(All instruments stop except PIANO)

First one to see
The you
The first one to feel
You

Let me open your eyes
And, make you see the sky
I’ve chased the darkness away
And, I’m here to stay
Only if you want

(PIANO EXTRO)

Dearest Aj,
This touched my heart the same way Celine Dion's song " Fly " touched me and still does. I love " let the feelings flow, drain them over me", I love everything about this. each placement of each instrument, AWESOME.
I love all you write , how you feel and share.

" Say the word " BRILLIANT "
your best to be
