So I'll Sing It Again

I usually only play songs I’ve written when I pick up my guitar to play. But lately, I’ve been playing a song by Glen Hansard over and over. I almost feel like that if I stop playing it, I just might lose my grip on things—as if playing this song is the only way I can hold on to you for now, until you are gone forever or until I can really hold you.

I’m scratching at the surface now
and I’m trying hard to work it out
So much has gone misunderstood
and this mystery only leads to doubt
And I didn’t understand
when you reached down to take my hand
so if you have something to say
you better say it now

Cause this is what you’ve waited for
Your chance to even up the score
And as these shadows fall on me now
I will somehow
Cause I’m picking up a message Lord
and I’m closer than I’ve ever been before
So if you have something to say
say it to me now

Timing

Love is patient. Love is patient. Love is patient. For now that’s all she asks. So for now that’s all I can give her. And it will take everything in me to do it.
