THE TALES OF LIVING

Soon the stars will disappear

Have I forgotten how to sleep

I wonder

The clouds appear and lands will meet

The sun will raise its head for me

In wonder

All I ever wanted is you

And all I ever wanted is you

Unashamed you bear my name

You take me to those days, we were younger

Your secrets are now mine to keep

Our shadows meet

Your night's in vowed

In love

So here we stand

Oh, when the mist of all we had

We will stand

You are just a plea

With the love we have achieved

And all I wanted is

And all I wanted is

Is you

I stumbled upon this song on soundcloud. Here. It made me go and buy the full EP named Bones by Josh Record on iTunes. Every once in a while a song will hit me hard. You know what I mean - some songs grow on you - you don't like them that much when you first hear them but by  the tenth listen you find yourself thinking of the song.

But other songs, like For Your Love - hit you like you've just fallen on you back and had the air knocked out of your lunghs. This particular song, I think it's a combination of Josh and his haunting voice and the beautifully crafted lyrics. They are romantic, but in a clever and quite understated way - in my opinion.
