In My Own Way

Story Behind The Song

Here's my first studio track on my debut album currently in production. A short while back I was asked to sing at a friends wedding. At the time I had been working on a love song that was based on the idea that demonstrating love is a much deeper form of expression that the use of words. The song went over very well at the wedding and I knew it would be on the list for my album.

Song Description

Sometimes we use many words to describe or express our love. Sometimes only a few. Words are powerful, but will never prove our love as strongly as when we demonstrate it. This song describes the desire to prove love with action and not simply with words.

Song Length 4:22 Genre Pop - Easy Listening, Folk - General
Lead Vocal Male Vocal Mood Endearing, Relaxed
Subject Falling in Love, Madly In Love Similar Artists Alison Krauss, Ricky Skaggs

Lyrics

Lyrics

Verse 1


I'm never gonna find the words to say

And even if the words I said were true

I could not express a thought as clearly

As baby when I take you by the hand

Spend a quiet afternoon with you

Nothing says "I love you" as sincerely


So in a peaceful place I find a way to show I care

For words alone could never express this love I want to share


Chorus

I'm gonna love you in my own way

In everything I do not what I say

Cause words are meaningless to me

When they're wrapped up in hypocrisy

Some write a poem I suppose

I'd rather say it with a rose

A loving word is so absurd

If you don't back it up with trust

It's all or bust haven't you heard

Or love with vanish into dust

And if these word were all I would say

No No, take it away

I'm gonna love you in my own way


Verse 2


I never wanna let a day go by

That I forget the value of a smile

Life without you simply isn't living

If actions cry out louder than your words

The loudest sound that ever could be heard

Is a simple act of selfless giving


And in a peaceful place I find a way to show I care

For words alone could never express this love I want to share

Very pleasing song. All words are thoughtful and true. I love songwriters that are philosophers! The world needs more of that! Awesome mando picking and loved the thirds with the two instruments taking center stage. I love your vocal tone. Will be following you! See you on the Top !0! Annie Lynn
