Finally broke my writers block and wrote a new song. Playing it on my new 4 string Partagas Havana CBG


1 & 1 Make 3
Lyrics
Once there was a way
For me to realize
The Look held in your eye

Lately there's no surprise
What was once has died
And clouds cover up my skies

Once I held the truth
At least I thought I
That all for me was you

Romanticize the Blues
If your feeling like I do
I never wanted to
Leave you singing too
But what else can I do?

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
Take a step into the sea
And wash away from me

Can't you see?
Won't you Believe
That 1 & 1 make 3
Separate myself from me

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
Take a step into the sea
And wash away from me

Can't you see?
Won't you Believe
That 1 & 1 make 3
Separate myself from me

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
I'm walking out to leave

Once there was a way
For me to realize
The Look held in your eye
Lately there's no surprise

What was once has died
And clouds cover up my skies
There's no sound to cover up your cries

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
Take a step into the sea
And wash away from me

Can't you see?
Won't you Believe
That 1 & 1 make 3
Separate myself from me

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
I'm walking out to leave

Once I held the truth
At least I thought I
That all for me was you

Romanticize the Blues
If your feeling like I do
I never wanted to
Leave you singing too

Whats the use? Tie the noose
If not just set me loose
you got nothing to lose

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
Take a step into the sea
And wash away from me

Can't you see?
Won't you Believe
That 1 & 1 make 3
Separate myself from me

Can't you see?
This thought won't let me be
I'm walking out to leave

Can't you see? Won't you believe?
That 1 & 1 make 3
That 1 &1 make 3
That 1 &1 make 3
