“Ellen, My Love”
Prelude (flowing chord extensions)
First Verse (single chords)
Piercing my sould with your tender replys,
To see forever I just look in your eyes.
The words you whisper of what we can become,
Uniting our spirits, two souls become one.Interlude (flowing chord extensions)
Second Verse (single chords)
Flowing with purpose, this heavernly power.
Rising above, this winter-torn flower
Memories of the future embrace us with light
So softly, so sweetly, you take my hand, and dance…Chorus (fast and energetic)
Bridge (piano takes chorus melody)
Third verse (repeating chord triplets)
Remember the lake, the sunset, the skies,
The laughing, the crying, big races, bike rides.
Remember the vision, the purpose, the tears,
The poems, the columns, the handprints, the cheersInterlude (flowing chord extensions)
Fourth Verse (repeating chord triplets)
So many questions, but somehow I know,
With light from your face, you can’t help but glow.
You are a song that I’d never heard,
You told me the world, without saying a word. And we danced…Chorus (fast and energetic)
Into the night, into the heart,
Two souls merge, lighting the dark.
A river of love, forever, no end,
My beacon, my comfort, my lover, my friendBridge (piano takes chorus melody)
Repeat Chorus (slow and peaceful)
