Melodies and Harmonies by Christel Crews
There you sit, drowning in the solitude
Seeking answers to unknown questions
Emotions escalating to exude
Robbed of peace in these Godforsaken seasons
Longing for the comfort of an unfamiliar touch
Reality bites as you accept the truth
The one thing you wanted so much
Is the sole thing you cant have in your youth
Refrain:
Shut out the world and play yourself a tune
And the melodies surround you
As you live day by day
While harmonies stir the questions and soothe the pain
Irrational times grate the logical mind
The romantic within strikes to be let out
Like a broken record, for her you pined
Yet fear overcame, followed in by doubt
To what purpose is this plight?
How will this story end?
You did what you felt was right
There is no need to defend
Just shut out the world and play yourself a tune
The melodies surround you
As you live day by day
While harmonies stir the questions and soothe the pain
Bridge:
Tomorrow will always have an unknown outcome today
Take faith as you step into the fray
So shut out the world and play yourself a tune
The melodies surround you
As you live day by day
While harmonies stir the questions and soothe the pain
