about

This song started in a bathtub...literally - I was soaking in the tub and thought up the chorus. I grabbed a ukulele, wrote the skeleton, and put it in my back pocket where it lived for some time. For the recording, I wanted to capture a beachy SoCal wall of sound vibe.

lyrics

I'd like to spend more time with you - I'd give you every passing day
If we went out just one time you'd feel like queen on display
I have swayed all the people to pray that together we'd belong
And any night you see me I might sing you a beautiful song

Don't go away - Do you know you always make my day
You make my day every time I see your pretty face
Your pretty face melts my heart and shows me God is great all of the day when I catch that glimpse of you

I think you've got all that I need - You could be the one for me
You can become my best friend and we'll be like carrots and peas
But I'm afraid if I stay away you might find another guy
He couldn't treat you half as well - You're the vision for my eyes

The Lord is working hard on me, He's taken quite a number of years
He's shaping me for the time, the time you would appear
I've been waiting so long for a girl, a girl that's just like you
Lost in your books, but I could drown in your eyes of ocean blue
