about
This song has an orchestral component a la the music of Sting or Seal. Words and music by Peter Smith.
All funds generated from these downloads go towards completing more of my songs! There are several waiting in the wings that are halfway done but need horns, mixing, etc. All downloads support this endeavor, but if you can pay more than a buck, hey-- even better!
lyrics
there you are-- by peter smith
Find my way through the maze
Dreaming of love's first gaze
Memories flood-- blur my sight
Hunger grows, love takes flight
There you are
Standing still, waiting
From afar
Eyes meet, walk briskly
Like a star
Falling, right through me
Breath of bliss
In your kiss
So long gone, how we were
Life takes hold; we defer
Roots grow down, and they hold us high
Grown through years, years flown by
There you are
Standing still, waiting
From afar
Eyes meet, walk briskly
Like a star
Falling, right through me
Breath of bliss
In your kiss
There you are (here I am)
Standing still, waiting (running t you love)
From afar (never far)
Eyes meet, walk briskly (the promise is enough)
Like a star
Falling, right through me
Breath of bliss
In your kiss
