I found an old tape of a song I's writen for my wedding. The marraige is over, but the song remains. That song, "Bind Our Hearts" is also on this site.
Lyrics
All That Remains is a Song
Minyard 2005
I've written songs about old saddletramps
and star crossed lovers in the night
I've written songs of lonesome cowboy camps
and songs that teach wrong from right
You always stood beside me through those years
You said you loved my poet's soul
But I still see your blues eyes filled with tears
When you said you had to go
I thought my music would bring happiness
and all it brought we both would share
But thngs were taking much too long I guess
seems it was more than you could bear
_________________________________________________
< Chorus >
I have to find a way to make it without you
to figure out what went wrong
I guess there's only one thing left to do
All that remains is a song
A song I'll write to ease my aching heart
and keep from crying all night long
me and my old guitar will make a new start
All that remains is a song
__________________________________________________
Once again you have inspired me
to put my feelings down in rhyme
I guess the only way to set you free
Is write about you one last time
So with my guitar and yellow pad
I'll do the one thing I do right
I'll write of teardrops and of feeling sad
and sing of missing you tonight
Well, when we see each other down the road
I promise not to make a fuss
And if you hear this on the radio
You'll know it's one last song for us
< Chorus >
< Bridge >
Rhymes and rhythms flow from my heart
guiding me to a brand new start
music see's me through now that you're gone
< Modified Chorus >
I know I have a way make it without you
to figure out what went wrong
I know there's only one thing left to do
All that remains is a song
