G-d and My Guitar (Lyric) by nypoet22
My girl had a scene she wanted to play
of a man on a horse and a house in a kingdom far away
Well this is not that house
and I am not that man
But Iâm doing what I can
to let her go
âCause you donât really own what you have,
all you can keep is who you are
Fast times are just as fast forgotten, and so far
the only ones who stay
to play along are G-d and my guitar.
I had a job that paid me a lot
But the end of the day
was all I gained with what I got.
I might have had a girl,
but didnât have a friend,
Didnât even understand how to love
âCause you donât really own what you have,
all you can keep is who you are
Fast times are just as fast forgotten, and so far
the only ones who stay
to play along are G-d and my guitar.
Well Iâm starting to learn, Iâm starting to see,
and Iâm starting to get a clue
as to what love might be
Deceitful kisses weep
for horses and for kings
but faithful are the wounds that give us wings (1)
âCause you donât really own what you have,
all you can keep is who you are
Fast times are just as fast forgotten, so far
but would you like to stay
and play along with G-d and my guitar.
How would you like to stay
and sing along with G-d and my guitar
-----
1. Proverbs 27:6 - "Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses
of an enemy are deceitful."
