You never know where a song will come from. Literally, someone mentioned to Alyssa that I could play guitar. The song just took over from there.

ALYSSA

Someone mentioned to Alyssa
That I could play guitar
And now I’m trying to be
What she hopes or thinks she’ll see
In who I am and what we are

It’s not a cover of her favorite song
Or any hymn she’s ever heard
But in the afternoon
I couldn’t shake her tune
And she’s the reason for the words

Someone mentioned to Alyssa
A day or two before
That there was more to me
Than the man she thought she’d see
Every other day she’s through that door

Skipping stones before they disappear
Is just a thing I have to do
Losing minds and wasting time
Among the things I fear
And why I sing to you

It’s not a cover of her favorite song
Or any hymn she’s ever heard
But in the afternoon
I couldn’t shake her tune
And she’s the reason for the words

Someone mentioned to Alyssa
That I could play guitar
And now I’m trying to be
What she hopes or thinks she’ll see
In who I am and what we are

Saved!
