Not Now(c) by Tom Wernigg [6/13]
Verse:
I know I’ve said I’m ready to go
and offered myself up in pain
I’ve lain sick in a bed, without even a friend
and begged for your silver blade
But not now, oh lord, not now
Chorus:
‘Cus the sun is shining today
And I’ve got so much to say
And I’ve got so much to do
Before coming to you
Verse:
It’s not lightly I utter your name
I don’t do it to catch someone’s eye
When I knock on your door, I’m needy and poor
I’m wretched and ready to die
But not now, oh lord, not now
Chorus
But not now, oh lord, not now
Okay, so that was grueling. As in, writing the blog, writing and recording the song, uploading it, and all the while behaving in a manner acceptable for a teacher on summer break, and whose family just assumes his calendar is blank.
But this is starting to feel familiar. My songwriting muscles are coming back. Hurrah!
