I’d like to write a song for you
I could even try to write a happy one
If I force myself to
All about the good times that we shared
the laughter and the joy and the funny things we said
About all the things that just fell into place
About the birds and the bees and the blue skies and the tall trees
and flowers and the sunshine and the sound of mountain streams
I’d like to write a happy song for you

CHORUS:
If you’re looking
For somewhere to rest your head
Don’t keep fighting with yourself
Just talk about the weather instead
Because loving is easier
If we’d just make it breezier
So let’s keep it light and simple
And talk about the weather instead

I’d like to play a tune for you
I could even write a happy tune
If you want me to
You could hum it on your way to work
And whistle while you’re in the park
And play it on your old violin
A sweet happy tune that you could sing, sing, sing
to your children as they’re dreaming of the next new thing
I’d like to write a happy tune for you

CHORUS

I’d like to dedicate this song to you
I tried to make happier than I usually do
I thought you’d like me to
There’s always something new to say
the weather changes day by day
Sunshine or an arctic freeze
Or the floods or the droughts or the rising seas 
or the gutters that are blocked up with the fallen leaves

I’d like to dedicate this song to you
I tried to make it happier than I usually do
The way you want me to

CHORUS + REFRAIN

Keep it light and simple

Track from two summers ago - stuck it in the closet.

There's A Spot in My Closet (For You)

Watch how you behave, it's calculated
We're all projections of our own mistakes.

In silence we fall
The first time I knew it somehow I couldn't let go
Choosing not to make a move
These are the last moments of chaos
Relying on nothingness
Life's a disease.

Watch how you behave, it's calculated, 
We're all projections of our own mistskes,
Floating in space, swallowed by Universe
Most of us are losing shape, becoming what we never were
Forever alone
I go back on the first rainy day I can remember
Not meant to bring me comfort,
But at least you tried, like we all do in our minds.

 Watch how you behave, it's calculated, 
We're all projections of our own mistskes
But as long as I stand still and ignore the wake up call
Can't find the meaning of our actions anymore
In silence we fall
Invisible seen from above.

Watch how you behave, it's calculated, 
We're all projections of our own mistskes,
Floating in space, swallowed by Universe.
Most of us are losing shape, becoming what we never were,
Forever alone...

Ramone & Lucid Milk Collective - Moments Of Chaos

This tune is from "The Phantom of the Opera" in 1986. Performed by me on my Yamaha PSR-SX900 arranger keyboard.

Can you "Name That Tune"? I have a website that contains my complete collection of tunes with their titles revealed at: https://www.harveytwyman.com
