A semi-daily chronicle of my life as a musician, a family man, and a citizen of Oregon.

Leave Her In Me

So, for the first time in a while I've recorded a new song. You can get a copy of it here on Last.fm. Click on the "Free.mp3" button to download your own copy.

The lyrics are:

Leave Her In Me

If I were the dark I would be a thick fog
And leave the color green where I have been
If I were a man I would be that kind of man
You know there used to be but ain't no more
If this were the day you would laugh and turn away
I'd turn my face to see where you have gone

Cause it ain't no more
Leave her in me
Cause it ain't no more
Leave her where she lay

If I were a dream in a twisted moon beam
I'd kiss your face and fade throughout the day
If I were a word I would be the last word
As you turned your angry face to walk away
If I were the dusk I would be a big sky
The kind where nothing matters anyway


Cause it ain't no more
Leave her in me
Cause it ain't no more
Leave her where she lay

In a month as long as any
Where the sun don't ever set
I will look upon your ashes gone decay
And the breath I never take
Comes into you as you wake
May it lead you to the point of walk away

Cause it ain't no more
Leave her in me
Cause it ain't no more
Leave her where she lay

Cause it ain't no more
Leave her in me
Cause it ain't no more
Leave her where she lay
