lyrics

I want you
So badly it makes my skin shake
my body vibrates every time I miss you
and there is a streamline of tears
reserved for the thought of you
they're all coiled up by my eyes
waiting for the mention of your name

and my hands
they sometimes reach out hoping
that you will be on the other side
they reach out as far as an arm could go
but how could such a short arm
reach someone who has been so far away?

my legs
they tangled up with your side of the bed
I walked so long on these poor legs
looking for the answers
to all the questions I have not yet asked you
to all the questions, I have yet to be brave enough

my eyes, they see you so clearly
and still so many parts of you are blurry
as if I took my glasses off
in the middle of the night
and then all I could see is a shadow of
someone that has been there before

you have been there before
and some different part of you lingers
along with your skin, your eyes,
your legs, and functioning organs
you are somewhat whole

but part of you has gone missing
but part of you has gone missing
what part of you has it been?
what part of yourself do you miss?
what part of me would you like to keep?
what part of you has gone missing?
what part of you has gone missing?
what part of you has gone missing?
what part of you doesn't miss me?

That Virginia Bridgeport, Connecticut

Once I knew how to play, I learned how to create. I knew life wouldn't be the same. Songwriting became my friend, my therapy, and my instrument of empowerment. My music is the best I can give to the world - it comes from my soul, from my heart, it is how I reach out. All I do is hope I can touch people in a positive way and somehow let them know it's ok to follow their bliss. ... more
