about

This is a song i wrote a few months ago about snoring, shortcomings, shooting for the bigger picture and true love. I hope you find something within it for yourself.

lyrics

Verse I:
I've been sleeping on my side of late
Trying my very best not to wake you up with all the silly sounds pouring from my mouth

Something tells me it ain't working out
Each morning the bags beneath your eyes look darker still i can't
Help but say I'm sorry

Chorus:
But you just smile and say it ain't my fault for trying
I wish i could shake this thing that makes you feel like dying
You never run away so theres not point of lying
And i love you more today
Then I have words to say

Verse II:
I am bad at managing my funds
Live like a king one night just to end up a pauper in the morning
Honey i swear I'll get it right

And i got a job just to make ends meet
When you know I'd rather sing out in the street for pennies on the dollar
Don't know why i bother

Chorus:
But you just smile and say you cannot stop trying
You've held me close and dried the tears that i was crying
You never run away so theres not point denying
And i love you more today
Then I have words to say

Verse III:
I'm just getting home from the show
Tired and burnt out as i rest my head against your pillow
Your sleeping face it makes me whole

I try my best not to make a sound
Don't want to wake you you're so peaceful
But your mouth cracks to a smile
And I know why

Chorus:
I can't help but love the way you keep trying
You see the best in us your words are dignifying
From the choice you made in the blink of an eye
And i love you more today
Then I have words to say

But you just smile and say you cannot stop trying
You've held me close and dried the tears that i was crying
You never run away so theres not point denying
And i love you more today
Then I have words to say x 3
