WRANGLING THE YEARS is lyrics about Lost Loves and the memories, scars, and gains still wrapped in discreet whisps of self-pity and self-worth: we all seem to intwine in such fragments of memory and emotion at times in our recollections...sent these by email, as I sometimes do, to several Songwriters I know...to see if any one of them can hear its Song...if you do: then Sing It!....

WRANGLING THE YEARS is is one of my new ones just up on the Blog, Friends...hope you find time to look through them....there are over twenty up there now...just if you have time, or course! no pressure here, at all! Really!
Love ya,
Kathy

WRANGLING THE YEARS

I've been wrangling the years:
Never give without losin -'
Never gave without bein'
Afraid of the Storms...
Been talkin' past partners
From far ago somewheres:
They never gave somethin'
Without leavin' home....

Chorus

You're my failures - my wins -
My Past and my Future
My unkempt ex-Lovers
Who I left alone...
I've fought with your Memory
Inside and Outside -
I'm really not leaving
Til you're up and gone....

Chorus

You're still awake in
My heart and my head -
I can hear you in mornings...
You haunt me all night -
I'll never forget you:
no matter how often
I wrangle the time warps
They never go right....

CHORUS:

You were some nightmare:
I know I'm just dreamin' -
I hope I grow up and
Forget all the pain:
My past is just lovers
I wrangled with mightily:
The losses were worth it:
My Self was the gain....
