You've Been Written

from The Dream Alive by Vocal Few

/

lyrics

I was an unbridled mustang
you stopped me dead with your stare
when I dismissed all your saddle busting
how quick was your whip in the air

I was a boy who was lonely
only after you left made aware
with no hesitation or cold feet
we married 
the very next year

I write everything down that I like
and you’ve been written into the songs of my life

I was a penniless orphan
in a mansion that made me despair
rich with affirming emotions 
but bankrupt of love I could share
you were a boy who was reckless
and I was the girl to repair
but time spent apart seemed to make us
face ourselves instead

I write everything down that I like
and you’ve been written into the songs of my life
and I like the songs that we write

the pages filled, recording wars and victories that we’ve been given
like altars built, preserving all our history, yes we’ve been written
in the melodies you gave to me
