This Song
Words and Music by Danielle Ashley

Well it’s been a long, long time
Since I’ve sat in this room
The radio sounds familiar
And this song reminds me of you

Well too bad that I love a sweet melody
‘Cause all I can see are these memories
Of you and me in the mirror
We’re watching each other breathe

And every time I hear this song
It comes as sharp as a paper edge cuts
I still will run my fingers along
I think it’s worth a cry…

And I knew it word for word ‘cause
It was our song
Now it’s broken and faded and possibly jaded and
Well I was wrong
It’s been so many years from the laughs to the tears
But I still remember you
And do you think of me like I do to you?
And do you think of me like I do?

Edging on a forgotten life
Standing on the brink of empty time
The hours I’m wasting forever
Just me and my lonely mind

Have you ever heard the wind?
Well the air is a tune
Breathe it in and let it flow all the way down
Do you feel me in you?

And every time I hear this song
My stomach does flips as my coffee cup drips
I just have to play it on my guitar
I think it’s worth a try…

There were secrets we never told
We kept them for so long
But here is when I tell you one
Did you know that I wrote our song?
