To Re​-​Create You

from The Wild Land by Nathan Maingard

/

lyrics

I gave to you all of my chances
All my gambled desires, all my romances

Rough scrawled lines cover these pages
Through all the years all the ages

Every line trying to understand you
Every line trying to re-create you

This is no storybook ending
I'm not lying you're not pretending
Unspoken words unspoken feeling
Backfired desire, angry meanings

Enough...I'm in love with you
Yes I'm in love with you

Dance on the face of every morning
Dance through the hallways of my mind
Dance through this illusion, Stop
Listen, there's no choice when you are blind

This is no storybook ending
I'm not lying you're not pretending
Unspoken words unspoken feeling
Backfired desire, angry meanings

Every line trying to understand you
Every line trying to re-create you
