I Feel You In My Heart All Year

This is a song I have called: I Feel You In My Heart All Year

I feel you in my heart all year,

That is why I am writing this song in summer,

Truth is told

Remembering you so completely, is hard

And that is why I just can’t seem to get it right.

The eyes failed by memories old.

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.

Your hair, island bleached coconut

Your skin, tastes of champagne, or so I heard,

Truth be told

Your smile flashes as a sunbeam

I was taken in wanting warmed by the flame

But you kept a distance and I was cold

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.

I was not offered your temptation,

There were times when I wish it had been so,

Truth is told.

On those days I doubt I did any good

My body’s cursed, mind damned and soul so quiet

They helped my deceit and lines I sold

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.

I planted codes in letters I wrote

Late on hard rain nights, I’d hope you’d crack,

Truth is told

Everything I did was for your affection

It was your game, a mess, where rules were broken

The stakes were raised, always intending to fold.

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.

I knew,

I knew it was for nothing,

All the same, I cherished every crumb thrown,

Truth is told

It was a simple fool’s belief in chance

A fairy tale you strung out wide like cotton weave

It was a trap, a net which you alone controlled

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.

I wonder if anyone comes through

Unscarred by the pretty wishes they cry for

Truth is told

For me there was another girl

She was there to love me and keep me true

And now it is her, not you, I hold

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.

I still always feel you in my heart,

That is why I am writing this song in summer,

Truth is told

Remembering you so utterly, is hard

And I just don’t want to ever get it right.

Eyes blinded by memories of gold.

I went to the moon, just to impress you,

But don’t you see, I only returned for her.
