A Woman Born to Fly (Original)

http://galensmith.tumblr.com

For Chels

From spring to spring you've given me
A love I cherish gratefully
We shared a chapter and it's been oh so beautiful
You made this house feel like a home
You turned the walls from gray to gold
You took me in and kept me oh so very close

From spring to spring through thick and thin
All we have and who we miss
Been broke to pieces but we built it back again
Cause you had me and I had you
When all else seemed to come unglued
We kept it warm when winter tried to bury us

And together we would change the way the city did it's thing
We spread a love that only you could give
And everybody knows that they've been blessed to have your hand
A life with you is just a better way to live

But in your eyes I see a woman born to fly
And the sky's the open world you need to see
It needs your love It needs your feet
I can't hold you back from who you're meant to be

You're my sister, you're my love
You'll always be the girl I'm thinkin' of
And with these words, you'll keep me close
My voice will break the distance if you feel alone

Galen!  Good to see you back in action, my friend. Beautiful, heartfelt original.

@RevelingInReverie Yea, sorry it has been a while! Thanks for checking out the original - hopefully more where that came from in the coming months. How you been?

[RevelingInReverie]

@galensmith I"ve been well. Definitely ready for summer. Hopefully I'll get some new tunes out myself. We'll have to collab together again sometime.

@RevelingInReverie Definitely. Just let me know what you want to do next! I am always up for more collaboration!

I was randomly surfing youtube when I stumbled over this song and I think it's great. your voice works perfectly for it. if I hear this song on the radio someday in the future I won't be a least bit surprised. it's a little too long though. 4:46 is like, crazy long, considering the slow pace. but still. great job!

@suprlee Thanks for the kind words! I guess I never thought of this as a radio song... actually a song for a good friend. I'm really glad you and others seem to like it though! Stay tuned, as I will have more stuff on the way this summer!

This is a sad song my friend...

Great lyrics + heartfelt vocals = an excellent performance....... I think there is alot more head-voice or falsetto (whatever you call it) that you are capable of. This song delivered just a sample of your voice in that range. Don't be shy with it.
