not much

not so much i could write about today
there’s not so much in a song
but i’ve seen where i’ve been
and i’ve dreamed where i could be
and today there’s just not much to see

not so much i could write about today
there’s not so much in a song
sure i could speak from the heart
or i could sing something profound
but really, where then would i be

back at the start
back where i came
with only a few more hours gone
and a new song to my name

 no i say there’s not so much i could write about today
and i say there’s still not much in a song
maybe broken hearted words
or poetic musings waxed
full of things that may not be or never were

how could you know
who i was by listening to me sing
how can it mean anything to you
the only words i can speak
are lost before they reach your ears
after all, i’m just one more guitar playing fool

but something about playing music brings me back
i don’t think it’s worth it tell you why
it’s like the comfort that you feel
when you know that you’re in love
it’s a secret world between you and your lover
there aren’t words
there aren’t even colors

not so much i could write about today
there’s not so much in this song
i just see where i’ve been
and i dream where i could be 
but today there’s just not much to see
