This Love So Far
©Jerry Axson

I want to love a perfect girl -
she’ll keep me warm in a cold world,
where the lonely wait outside closed doors,
or wash up on some distant shore,
I have a place in my empty heart,
for her to come and make a start,
I’m so useless in this modern age,
open me and turn the page...
I need to know this love is real...
I need truth in the way you feel...
it’s a battle each day to make it all work out...

This love so far -
is all that I’ve known...
the chains ‘round my heart -
are all I’ve been shown...

I’ve been around enough to see -
it takes faith to set you free,
in a world of sorrow bound to pain,
there’s nothing left but a sad refrain,
it’s like no one ever gets through,
like nothing will ever really do,
you’re center stage in some tragic play,
and this show goes on it’s inevitable way...

If it gets too tough do you think we’re gonna’ make it?
if it’s just a little broke will you leave it and forsake it?
I’ve always been told it takes a whole lot to make it...
it takes a lot to make it girl...

Jerry Axson Columbia, South Carolina

Writing songs and composing music satisfy my soul and because of this I know exactly what I am designed to do, it’s just that simple. - Jerry Axson ... more
