Bye (Elliott Smith)

I wrote this one for my Little One...my wonderful daughter Laura!

Little one walks in the forest
So happy today
Her feet are still wet from the puddle
Where she stopped to play
Climbed a tree in the meadow
Caught a frog over there
And these are the things that the little one
She wants to share

Little one writes in the classroom
Letters and words
Draws a sweet picture with puppies
Kittens and birds
Skips on the playground
Watches clouds in the sky
And these are the things that the little one
Sees in her life

Mamas and papas
Hold your little ones tight
Hug them and kiss them
Hold on for dear life
Hold on for dear life

Little one under the covers
Whispers good night
Laughing when you say that you hope
The bed bugs won't bite
You read her a story
She drifts off to sleep
And these are the memories of your little one
You'll always keep
These are the memories of your little one
You'll always keep
You'll always keep

pull me in
push me out
spin in circles
thrown about
enhance my senses
blow my mind
flash of brilliance
moontide
moontide

swim against
the whole night long
all the right
all the wrong
usurp my power
take my pride
still I love
moontide
moontide

what if I said the words
I love you one more time
would it be enough
enough to change your mind

relentless forces
never stop
dawn will find me
on the rocks
cannot see
I cannot hide
this sinking ship

I don't usually write so literally (or at least I don't think I do) but I wanted to tell a story about a family hike we took. Lyrics need a lot of polishing as they don't all fit so well but it's a start. Oh, and I finally got into GarageBand for a few minutes!
