Better Now

[Lyly]

I’m sleeping better now
though I don’t know why

I’m smiling better now
though I’m not sure why

I’m dreaming better now
but I don’t know why

I’m doing better now
but I’m not sure why

Maybe it’s just time
like they all say
But I never thought just time
could make this go away

Maybe I’m not ready
to lose this pain
Because having it means
my heart still beats the same

And maybe I just have
a high opinion of myself
and all of my beliefs
compared to everyone else

Maybe it’s just time
Maybe I’m not ready
Maybe I’m afraid
Maybe it’s not right…

I’m sleeping better now
though I don’t know why

I’m smiling better now
though I’m not sure why

I’m dreaming better now
but I don’t know why

I’m doing better now
but I’m not sure why…

OOooh Lyly,
I like this one very much.
Time does that to someone as you stated here but you've said it with so many more emotions and feelings.

I liked this. Like you're saying you are no longer haunted by the thoughts of this person.

This was short but I could see it with nothing but an acoustic guitar and others singing along.

You know I enjoy your work ;)

Thank you. Really, really...thank you. - Lyly

kinda funny how art imitates life (or vice versa) isn't it? I too am sleeping better now, though whether I owe that gift to drugs or mercy from God, I don't know. Beautiful song. You have such a simple, lovely voice (written voice, just clarifying myself there, since I've never heard you sing).

Thank you Lady A, I always appreciate your comments. Hopefully soon I will be able to start posting audios so that you will be able to hear my songs...and probably my voice too. Unfortunatley my technology is not that capable right now. :( Thanks again, -Lyly
