Fiiiiiinally

Now listen, I don't know that this new song is going to turn out like I have it set in my head, but it's something that came from the heart. I wrote it at work today...while I was working. Anyway, it's the first time I've come up with something at least half way decent since before the mish. Here goes nothin':

You may be shocked it's not the first time
That I've wanted to put down this rhyme.
My pen to paper and I'm scratching out every other word.
Won't take for granted the times you told me
That all you wanted was to unfold me.
Unscrew the hatch and try to figure out how everything works.

I never swore that I'd be perfect,
Just wanted everything to go on right as rain.
I went and proved that I'm imperfect;
Just want to know that we can make things right again.

I failed to mention it's not the last time
That I will be force to sing you this rhyme.
I wrote these words down to apologize for everything I said.

I never swore that I'd be perfect,
Just wanted everything to go on right as rain.
I went and proved that I'm imperfect;
Just want to know that we can make things right again.

Despite the fact that I'm imperfect
You go on loving me and wipe the tears away.
I won't expect you to be perfect;
Just want to know that you'll be by my side each day.


Really the rhyme pattern makes more sense if you hear me sing it. I'll work on getting the music notated and then some semblance of a recording. Thanks for reading.
