This is a song Jimmy had started writing in the early/mid 1990’s. He had the piano part of course and the title. I fleshed out the lyrics as well as the vocal arrangement and we recorded it in early 1994. I was proud to sing this at his wedding later that same year!
Some see the world too often dull and gray
With all we have I think there’s so much more to say
Palette and brush no more a lifeless hue
Bold masterpiece!
No matter where I go with you
Outside the cold chills to the very soul
Somehow the fires burn anew
No matter where I go with you
Some turn away
Avert their gaze in fear
With open eyes so many wonders can appear
Though darkness falls
No sadness will come through
Light always shines
No matter where I go with you
Thunder may sound
Rain could be pouring down
Somehow the skies are always blue
No matter where I go with you
Now let us gaze through this window in time
Always how the sun brightly shines
Bringing clear days
As we touch love divine
I will follow your heart’s cue
No matter where it leads me to with you
Some stake their claim to blindness self-imposed
With open minds we know the future’s never closed
Courses to chart and promised lands in view
Journeys begin
No matter where I go with you
And truth be told
Though we grow old
Deep within our souls
Somehow our love is ever new
No matter where I go with you
With you
