"Now I Know (Better)"

I've been on a little guitar kick recently after having some much-needed adjustments made to my Fender.  I had the action lowered so it is much easier to play now.  And who knew--I am practicing more!  At any rate, here's one of several songs I recorded at home on the second day of the new year.  Hope you enjoy it.

Title: "Now I Know (Better)"
Written March 2010

Lyrics:
The damage is done
I trusted
The loss I feel
I have no words

But now I know
Now I know better

Never again
My heart I’ll open
Can time heal this?
I cannot say

But now I know
Now I know better

I felt at ease
And I took comfort
But all is done
And I’m not okay

But now I know
Now I know better

It still hurts inside
But through these things we grow
Could the fault be mine?
I should have known
Perhaps next time I’ll know better

The damage is done
I trusted
The loss I feel
I have no words
I have no words
I have no words

  1. I get so excited every Friday knowing that I am going to hear another beautiful song played, written and sung by you. Each time, I think, well, this is my favorite... then a new one comes up and I think, well this is my favorite. Truthfully, they ALL are my favorites. Keep going, please!!!!! Love, love, love.
