Just To See Your Face
(words & music: t.h. gorman ©2018 teztunesmusic)

lyrics

I only have to look your way
It puts me in my place
Your eyes, they shine like diamonds
On a satin pillowcase
Sometimes life's a hard affair
But when I see you standing there
The sorrows vanish in thin air
Just to see your face

I'm old enough to notice things
I might have missed before
I've had my fill of pretty things
And treasures by the score
And when I thought I'd seen it all
Then you appeared, a living doll
I'd scale the highest mountain tall

Just to see your face
Just to see your face
Just to see your face
Just to see your face

I've made a list of all the things
That make you dear to me
But though the list goes on and on
What most I long to see
It may not matter anymore
But one thing that I know for sure
I'd travel to a distant shore

Just to see your face
Just to see your face
Just to see your face
Just to see your face

The lonely time goes on and on
From morn to night
From dusk til dawn
The only thing I've left of you
Is locked inside a heart so blue
It barely beats anymore

BREAK

I only had to look your way
It put me in my place
Your eyes, they shone like diamonds
On a satin pillowcase
And if I'd been a braver man
I might have asked you for your hand
And now I'd sail an ocean grand

Just to see your face
Just to see your face
To see that perfect face
Just to see your face

Tez Howes Moncton, New Brunswick

I'm just an old Canadian fart writing & recording tunes, trying to capture the vibe of pre-millennial popular musics, rock, blues, jazz, funk, country, pop, etc. Lumiere and Knowhere are primarily indie pop, and The New Codiac Blues is a collection of blues-based tunes.
They're dotted with selected collabs with uber-talented friends in the UK, USA, Australia and Bulgaria of a variety of sounds.
