Song: Warm Ways by Brian L Hughes
0Warm Ways is the final track of my final CD, Apricot Tangle. I always felt like it was probably my best song, but I think it could use a bridge with a key change! Still I like the way it goes and the finish is clever.
Lyrics
A beautiful love like this has no room for the cold ways of the world
Those young year thoughts were thrown like darts into bar room walls
Was there somebody trying to force me into circular mazes? I don’t know
Now it’s all about your warmth upon my heart, and the quiet afterglow
Oh the times when I just can’t say to myself someone else is right
But I just have to dump those pans of recipes that went wrong
Follow direction, heed advice, admit that I have gone astray
Better believe you’ll see me running home to the darling I belong
Following the course of a dream that meanders like a river
Recalling the feeling, climbing stairs, crossing bridges
Wanting the sense of being near, experiencing what is you
Your voice, the scent of your body, secure and very true
An energy that we share, the dynamic that we generate
Eleven time zones away lightning between our fingertips
The roar of storms upon these ancient cleansed beaches
All is forgiven, old doubt set aside, love kissed cheeks
Chorus
Here I am upholding the beauty of flowers
I’m flying about inspecting like a bumblebee
You are the cutest thing with a buzz for tomorrow
I love to hover near the bouquet of your sweater
