EVERMORE: My first song :)

[sshenry]

I've always been good with words - usually stories and what not, but poetry too. I've also always been good with music - I've taught piano and have written pieces for piano and other instruments but I finally put the two together - and on my first submission I have a publicist who is very excited about it

I know it is hard to imagine music when reading, but this is in a minor key and the accompaniment is piano and violin - the bridge is just violin.

EVERMORE:

You'll always be my love my own
where you are dearest I'll call home
If you should fly to heaven's star
I'd follow to be where you are
not fire nor water earth nor air
can keep me if you want me there
and yet if you should turn away
refuse my love I would not stay
But cast away from sleep's fair shore
to dream of you FOR EVERMORE.

When first I saw you in my dreams
I knew that you were all you seemed
And so I wished upon a star
That I could be there where you are
And when I woke you turned to me
And in your arms my destiny
And when I met your gaze so true
I knew at once you'd dreamed me too
So here we'll stay on sleep's fair shore
To dream each other EVERMORE.

{Bridge} solo violin

I thought I saw you yesterday
When I looked up you'd slipped away
Someday we'll meet I know not when
I'll dream of you from now till then
And if that day should not arrive
Life will go on I will survive
But when death comes to call for you
I pray to God, He'll take me too
And then we'll slip from life's fair shore
to be together EVERMORE.
