Description: I was on a dating site for a while and imagined the lives of some of the women I was looking at. I started writing lyrics about a few.

about

I was on a dating site for a while and imagined the lives of some of the women I was looking at. I started writing lyrics about a few. I contacted this lady later and she said it was spooky how accurate it was and that I had made her feel more special than anyone has in a long time, and we left it there.

lyrics

Too early morning
A dreamer told to wake

First tries second tries
nothing she can't take

Frost on that window
a little frost on her soul

though the world gets cold
shes stronger than she knows

A Good morning to man's best friend
better to her than any man has ever been

a Hazel gaze graces this lonely place
the cold floor on the morn seems colder than before

She don't need no hand to hold
shes fine on her own
fine on this road

She don't need no man to know
The love behind those hazel eyes
The lies shes known
and what she's survived

A quiet in her mind
and traffic in in the streets

coffee on the brew
her dreams growing weak

favorite mugs, and undone dishes
hints of sunrise, and a little girls wishes

empty chairs staring where conversations used to be
about a future for 2 hearts meant to be

but its no ones loss, its better than the cost
She'll do this day like any other, no one is lost

Oh When she reaches for forever again
She has to know

if It'll stand the test of time
she doesn't wanna dry a line in the sand again

Oh When she reaches for forever again
She has to know

if It'll stand the test of time
she doesn't wanna dry a line in the sand again
