I was having trouble getting started this year so found a verse in the 'song graveyard' that I built out into a new song. I imagine this one having a lot more sound with it some day!
I am at your mercy
I’ll lay down my arms
I’ll wait until the time comes
To let my heart take flight
The road it may be lonesome
But i’ve walked it time before
I’ll wait until the night falls
And let memory rule the dark
But have you ever known a love that binds straight to your heart
And infects you deep down into your soul?
And while it’s tearing you apart you cannot help but play the part
Of a lovesick fool who knows not where to turn
And so down and down down you go
If you ever stop, then you’ll never know
You risk it all so that time can tell the story
That we tried
I am at your mercy
I wait as time ticks by
As light breaks the morning
Let memory carry on

Lovely song. Beautiful singing and piano playing and some great lyrics.

Nice start! Lovely vocals, especially that lower part at the end, lots of drama built up. Pretty hard hitting imagery in this one, really like the 3rd stanza, great resurrection from the song graveyard!
