"The Light That is You" -tentative title...acoustic/rock

by Joe
(Chicago)

This is a song I hope to record and play at my wedding for our first dance. First song I've ever written and am having some doubts about the simplicity of it. Any comments welcome!


(V)
I go back every once in a while
To the first time I saw your beautiful smile
Would she ever be with a guy like me
It was then that I knew
We’d make one heart from two
No matter what I had to do

(C)
With one look at your face
My heart starts to race
You shine like a diamond
I stared into your eyes
And felt a love that I knew was true
I fell into the light that is you

(V)
I never knew I would fall for an Indiana girl
The smallest things you do change my whole world
Your touch makes me feel like I’m in a dream
We’ll laugh and we’ll cry
But when you lay down at night
I’ll always be there holding you tight

(C)
With one look at your face
My heart starts to race
You shine like a diamond
I stared into your eyes
And felt a love that I knew was true
I fell into the light that is you

(V)
The road we are starting is amazing and new
I will always be the one you can turn to
And together we’ll make it through
All it takes is our love
And we will rise above
There is nothing we can’t do

(Bridge)
Oh it’s a crazy thing
All the love that you bring
It makes me want to sing

(C)
With one look at your face
My heart starts to race
You shine like a diamond
I stared into your eyes
And felt a love that I knew was true
I fell into the light that is you

This is good...

Love is love in it's simplest form mate, and so this is Love. It's nice, not over cheesy. The only thing I would say is that you might want to make it a bit shorter, it's a bit lengthy, but could work depending on the speed of it. Check out my song, "Time" and see what you think.
