I just composed this one today, and I wish there was some way to show the rhythm I picked for it (I'm a percussionist, not a melody person), ah well...here goes:

All I can ever do is speak my heart,
All I can ever do is find a way,
All I can ever do is speak directly,
knowing deep down, it's all for good.

All I can offer now is truth so clear,
Words so sincere they light the way,
All I am giving are best intentions,
All I can do right now is share my heart-felt song...

Thanks, MysticMelody! I'm so glad the Universe provided music for you while reading these lyrics

It's the first song I've written in years, and it just came flowing out as I was staring into the bathroom mirror...

LOL, I just rhymed, without even trying!! I'm amusing myself

Here's the current version of lyrics:

All I can ever do is speak my heart,
All I can ever do is find a way,
All I can ever do is speak directly,
knowing deep down, it's all for good.

These years we've lost
sitting here in the dark
we can let go,
move on,
find a spark,,,

So man take the time,
just hear me out,
what loss can you take,
cause nothing will break,
when you realize...

All I can ever do is speak my heart,
All I can ever do is find a way,
All I can ever do is speak directly,
knowing deep down, it's all for good.

All I can offer now is truth so clear,
Words so sincere they light the way,
All I am giving are best intentions,
All I can do right now is share my heart-felt song...

I really just believed I heard it in my Mind!

Well done!

“It’s an interesting thing. Seeing Kuan Yin relating to a flower so intently. She's not just looking at it; she's interacting with it…I’m seeing how the act of relating to a flower appears to be so simple. Yet, it takes a tremendous amount of courage to make such a “simple” act important. Now, the lotus is floating away.”
