Take These Songs
Words and Music by S. Harris

I'm like everybody else
I hate to be alone
You were an ice cube melting in the sun

Summer turned to fall to winter
and you turned into stone
you left me when the roses bloomed you owe me one

I was taught
You never give up hope
And I’m an overoptimistic fool

But tell me
Tell me how I’m s'posed to get over you

Chorus:
Take these songs I left them for you (3x)
Do what you want with 'em
Take these songs I left them for you (3x)
They won't do any good to me now that you're gone

We all pretend that our lives and loves are predetermined
My fate ain't written in the stars above
Everyday I stand upon uncertainty
There's no alternative to love

I was taught
You never look back
My teacher's broken heart got in the way
But tell me
Tell me how I get on through the day

Chorus

Now you're gone
It took all my strength just to keep it alive
I keep prayin'
I keep looking to the sky
I keep looking way up high

Chorus
