Description
Song from the solo EP of this singer-songwriter-guitarist, who cut his teeth in the New York City punk rock scene before striking out on his own. A touching thank-you note to a new love, this all-acoustic track expresses delight at overcoming a rocky relationship history, and celebrates an unexpected deliverance into a relationship filled with joy and true connection. A man once unsure of his own feelings about commitment, suddenly finds himself happily ready to take the next step.
Lyrics
When you crinkle your brow and Your lips curl up and Your eyes burn like a thousand stars You take my hand, I feel your blood flowing Like my love flows for you I waited so long and I worked so hard To become a man who can stand on his own Then you showed up at the perfect time And our two hearts made a home Cause we’re two spirits in love Walking side-by-side, separate but together Yes we’re two spirits in love, walking hand in hand Two people making one Home of love, home of love Home of love, home of love I wanted to write a song That didn’t use stereotypes Or the cliches that you find in the fairy tales But when you boil it all down And get to the essence There’s somethin in those stories That I think is true ‘Cause in this crazy world Happily ever after only lasts five minutes With most people you meet And I’m stayin’ in the moment So damn grateful for the present but If I got a long time with you That would be all right with me Because we’re two spirits in love Walking side-by-side, separate but together Yes we’re two spirits in love Walking hand in hand Two people making one Home of love, home of love Home of love, home of love And you have your own journey That I’m still learning about But I’m so glad we found each other So we can figure out Who we’re supposed to be It changes every day In the most wonderful, surprising way We are slowly building, we are gently building We are carefully building Our passion together is building A home of love, home of love Home of love, home of love Home of love, home of love Home of love, home of love
