a song written with help from my long time collaborator, Jono Manson
lyrics
till I met you
I lived the life of a dilettante
an aimless drifter
not knowing what I really want
night after night alone I lay
still I dared to dream you’d show up one day
what can I
what can I do for you
you take my hand
and you whisper in my ear
all those pretty things
you know I long to hear
and I drink deep of
ambrosia wine
when you assure me
that you are mine
what can I
what can I do for you
can I lift you up
and never let you fall
can I stand beside you
when your back’s against the wall
you’ve given me
whats long been denied
now I’m dedicated, motivated
ready to provide
just one thing
honey I ask of you
be gentle with this heart
that now belongs to you
and it will pay you
back in kind
anything you desire
I don’t mind
what can I
what can I do for you
