Story Song

Title: Just To See You Smile
Artist: Tim McGraw

Lyrics:
You always had an eye for things that glittered
But I was far from bein made of gold
I dont know how that I scraped up the money
I just never could quite tell you no
Just like when you were leavin amarillo
To take that new job in tennessee
And I quit mine so we could be together
I cant forget the way you looked at me

Chorus:

Just to see you smile
Id do anything
That you wanted me to
And all is said and done
Id never count the cost
Its worth all thats lost
Just to see you smile


When you said time was all you really needed
I walked away and let you have your space
Cuz leavin didnt hurt me near as badly
As the tears I saw rollin down your face
And yesterday I knew just what you wanted
When you came walkin up to me with him
So I told you that I was happy for you
And given the chance Id lie again

(repeat chorus)

Id do anything
That you wanted me to
And all is said and done
Id never count the cost
Its worth all thats lost
Just to see you smile

8. The page is always so empty.
7. Dark and cold is something new.
6. The wall is white and plain.
5. A word can tell a story.
4. Click the mouse and power down.
3. Looked back through the past yesterday.
2. Let's go walk for a while.
1. There will be a new day.

Grand Theft Poetry

Waves 

Crashing
Full of power
Breaking at the end 
Vibrations go on 
Never to be found again
Everything about it is moving
It moves everywhere
However it cannot leave
The shining sun
Glistening on top
It shines so fiercely
Yet always a constant
