Story Behind The Song

I was inspired to become a songwriter in part by the collaborative duo of Elton John and Bernie Taupin. I always wanted to create a work comparable in terms of its clever piano work and deep and meaningful lyrics.

Song Description

An electric piano ballad with soft vocal and lush background vocals.

Lyrics

Verse 1
Look at me without we; tragedy is the lonely path I take
Shadows grow, even saddled with knowing true love no longer makes
Trodden...alone...let's assume that'll do.

...what's due these stones made of hearts once alive
But I don't see summer, back here from my wintry tomb
I'm sorry that I hurt us

Chorus
For, ever losing you was never quite my intent
But passion sobered into habitual sentiment
And what became of dreams was never quite what I meant
To happen, it happened to happen
And, ever losing you was never quite my intent
But passion sobered into habitual sentiment
And what became of dreams was never quite what I meant
To happen, it happened to happen

Verse 2
All alone on my throne I belong
Sovereign king of pain
...soullessly into a simple heart made of stone to atone
...subtle doubts in some form
Come to take me...come to shake me...shape me into a somebody who cares
Set me down, change time
Hold me now, and make me whole

Chorus

Bridge
Start a fire; target my desire for you
I know that I'm determined, tired of this desire-less form; move
I pray, renew me.
