Song For You

Alexi Murdoch

So today I wrote a song for you

Cause a day can get so long

And I know its hard to make it through

When you say theres something wrong



So Im trying to put it right

Cause I want to love you with my heart

All this trying has made me tight

And I dont know even where to start



Maybe thats a start



Cause you know its a simple game

That you play filling up your head with rain

And you know you are hiding from your pain

In the way, in the way you say your name



And I see you

Hiding your face in your hands

Flying so you wont land

You think no one understands

No one understands



So you hunch your shoulders and you shake your head

And your throat is aching but you swear

No one hurts you, nothing could be sad

Anyway youre not here enough to care



And youre so tired you dont sleep at night

As your heart is trying to mend

You keep it quiet but you think you might

Disappear before the end



And its strange that you cannot find

Any strength to even try

To find a voice to speak your mind

When you do, all you wanna do is cry



Well maybe you should cry



And I see you hiding your face in your hands

Talking bout far-away lands

You think no one understands

Listen to my hands



And all of this life

Moves around you

For all that you claim

Youre standing still

You are moving too

You are moving too

You are moving too

I will move you
