Song for Me
Twenty years of traveling is wearing out my shoes
And twenty years of good times, but I still get the blues
The journey never slows and the conversations flow like wine
Oh I keep looking for the day when I can leave the blues behind
All these years I've known you
seems like we just met yesterday
Through the good times and the bad times
you've been with me all the way
It comforts me to know that there's someone
listening to the songs I sing
Oh sometimes I just wish there was someone to sing for me
So tonight if you don't mind I'd like to sing a little song for myself
A song from my soul about the joys of this life that I have felt
About fine guitars and pretty girls and fishin with my feet in the sea
Oh these are the things I love and this song's for me
The things that make me smile
I'd like to think would bring a smile to any man
And these hard times make it hard to find
the peaceful life that we all understand
That's why I have the need to plant the seeds
and watch them as they reach up for the sun
Under big blue skies while Jerrianne smiles
and no one cries today for anyone
So tonight if you don't mind I'd like to sing a little song for myself
A song from my soul about the joys of this life that I have felt
About love and good music and playing Althea like Jerry did
Oh to play it again
So tonight if you don't mind,
I'd like to sing a little song for myself
A song from my soul about the joys of this life that I have felt
Like big dreams, and big machines
and fixing things with my own two hands
These are the things I love and this song's for me.
And twenty years of good times, but I still get the blues
The journey never slows and the conversations flow like wine
Oh I keep looking for the day when I can leave the blues behind
All these years I've known you
seems like we just met yesterday
Through the good times and the bad times
you've been with me all the way
It comforts me to know that there's someone
listening to the songs I sing
Oh sometimes I just wish there was someone to sing for me
So tonight if you don't mind I'd like to sing a little song for myself
A song from my soul about the joys of this life that I have felt
About fine guitars and pretty girls and fishin with my feet in the sea
Oh these are the things I love and this song's for me
The things that make me smile
I'd like to think would bring a smile to any man
And these hard times make it hard to find
the peaceful life that we all understand
That's why I have the need to plant the seeds
and watch them as they reach up for the sun
Under big blue skies while Jerrianne smiles
and no one cries today for anyone
So tonight if you don't mind I'd like to sing a little song for myself
A song from my soul about the joys of this life that I have felt
About love and good music and playing Althea like Jerry did
Oh to play it again
So tonight if you don't mind,
I'd like to sing a little song for myself
A song from my soul about the joys of this life that I have felt
Like big dreams, and big machines
and fixing things with my own two hands
These are the things I love and this song's for me.
