Song lyrics part 12. This one was recorded as a demo in 2005. The story is about the situation when sentenced man tells his woman to forget him and go find a new man. Woman does not want to leave this man, but the man wants that woman leaves him. A country song. 

 

                                                           Love's No Jailer

 

I killed a man two years ago

Just because i loved her so

Got twenty years without a bail

Every week she comes in my jail

 

Love's no jailer, it's a bird

She's proud but i know how she hurts

Love's no jailer, so let it be

My days are over so i let her free

 

First i thought i can't live

My decline she can not forgive

There's nothing she could do

It's a pain but i know it's true

 

Love's no jailer, it's a bird

She's proud but i know how she hurts

Love's no jailer, so let it be

Just go away and stay wild and free

 

There's no mail that i receive anymore

No christmas cards no birthday call

But every morning i wake up fine

My baby's free for good this time

 

Love's no jailer, it's a bird

Where she's now i haven't heard

Love's no jailer, so let it be

My days go forever so i let her free

Song lyrics part 11. I will continue my lyrics series with a few more. This is very old one, song for the unloved that are working hard. It is a fully composed, demo-recorded song, that was written around 1995.


                                                       Twisting Love

 

Your mother didn't love you, and your daddy was not there

It's tough world sometimes, hard world sometimes

For those cold and distant, hiding their need

Like the separation that makes us a different breed

 

It is hard to know, and even harder to hate

Someone like you, someone afraid when you go

Twisting love, of every stone on your way

Of every inch fading away

 

You arrive in this small town, where people stare your face

You smile and wonder, why you look out of place

It's a game of desperados, that never wanna fight

Faking confidence, classified out of sight

 

The highway is long, and even longer it is

When it escapes you, like the thing that you miss

When you go, twisting love of every stone on your way

Of every inch fading away
