Story Behind The Song

In today's world , it is often difficult to stay balanced and it is EASY to feel smothered and overwhelmed. That's when we need people, REAL PEOPLE, who will help us be steadfast when the "smothering" is getting the best of us. That is when REAL LOVE needs to show up and stand behind us. That is what this tender tune is about.

VERSE ONE
New confusions have left you here
Thoughts are blurred and unclear
Dreams once held so near
Have begun to disappear
So, let them fly to the wind
Someone new will take them in
Someone new will be their friend

CHORUS
And what about my ears?
And what about my mouth?
And what about my gentle touch
Helps to warm your darkened nights?
I'll help you fight your fears
And hold you through the bouts
That love to draw you in the ring
And smother you with doubt

VERSE ONE
Mix reservation
With the feelings that we've had
Add the frustration
Of a world that has gone bad
Still we must keep on churning
We must move right along
There is no returning
That's yesterday's song

CHORUS
And what about my ears?
And what about my mouth?
And what about my gentle touch
Helps to warm your darkened nights?
I'll help you fight your fears
And hold you through the bouts
That love to draw you in the ring
And smother you
And smother me
And smother you
And smother me
And smother you
