Fool Says - by M. Ward

hey, i ain't never met anyone like you before
i ain't never met anyone like you before
i thought all the good ones were gone
you're here to tell me i was wrong

hey, you ain't never met a fool like me before
you ain't never met a fool like me before
they told you all romantic fools had died
i'm here to tell you that they lied

- Fool Says, by M. Ward

How Could You

Oh look... a little scrap of paper with lyrics on them!
I had written them while taking a Greyhound bus back from NYC to Boston in 2006.

It's 2010. Why not just put those to a lil music... ? Not my best work but here goes...

bar song

The first verse, a conversation bursting out from damp lips
in the chatter of the bar
lost in the tune
your laughter
and I
gladly humming and hanging on your every word

Then the chorus
So intoxicating I can’t stop playing it over and over
in my mind
Like when your hand stayed
strayed
an extra moment on mine

The bridge always stings
damn chord progressions reminding me
that reality
is never ever what you want it
to be

And finally...

another verse
sooth and warming like the first
time
as I’m drawn into your melody
and you make me laugh
and I sing along
so sure
this song
is playing for me

until

the final chord fades
and you let go
you let me go


you always let me go



But you and I both know
I’ll just keep pressing repeat...

the morning after
