Song Information:
A love song, I consider it to be among the most concise and elegant statements on the emotion that I have managed to pen. This song took a while to record, and there were several versions along the way, although all of them had the same underlying percussion loops and melodic bass line. There's an easter egg in here, as well. See if your ears can pick out the spot in the song where my dog, Bud, can be heard shaking his dog tags in the background while I did a backing vocal line. The take was good and I didn't want to redo it, and Bud's jangling actually seemed to be on-beat and almost sounded like a tambourine!
Song Lyrics:
The everyday, is not as sexy as yesterday
But its the everday, that keeps me here with you
Sometimes Im not myself
And sometimes, you seem different, too
But no matter who I am, I know I belong to you
I will be the steam
That causes your heart to melt so fast
I will be the one dream that you save
I will be the shine
That glitters in your eyes tonight
I will be your hope, when all is gone
Help you to push on
Its hardest at night
I know things have been rough on you
It can be hard to see, the joy through all of the pain
If you take away the fear
Turn on the lights and stop the dark
When the pain goes away
I will still remain
I will be the steam
That causes your heart to melt so fast
I will be the one dream that you save
I will be the shine
That glitters in your eyes tonight
I will be your hope, when all is gone
Help you to push on
I cant push you away
Learning to live, with and without you
Holding back your tears
I spend too much time
Trying to make you love me
When I know you already love me
Please just say you need me
You know you dont have to leave me
