You Are So Very Good
You Are So Very Good (Stephen Berry) by snewjackswing1983
It's been a while since I've posted an original. This one is pretty simple, but I like it a lot, and I hope you do, too. Here are the lyrics:
You Are So Very Good
How long, I will wait forever
How long, I will hide my face
How long, I will fight for freedom!
Every day is a sorrow. Every day is a sorrow
Look on, this is me, and answer
Look on, this is light for eyes
Look on, this is sleep, not death!
My enemies are overcome. My enemies are overcome.
Trust in this love, unfailing
Trust in salvation, singing
Trust in these hearts rejoicing!
And You are so very good. You are so very good.
You are so very good. You are so very good.
You Are So Very Good
How long, I will wait forever
How long, I will hide my face
How long, I will fight for freedom!
Every day is a sorrow. Every day is a sorrow
Look on, this is me, and answer
Look on, this is light for eyes
Look on, this is sleep, not death!
My enemies are overcome. My enemies are overcome.
Trust in this love, unfailing
Trust in salvation, singing
Trust in these hearts rejoicing!
And You are so very good. You are so very good.
You are so very good. You are so very good.

Tomorrow Is A Long Time (Bob Dylan)
Tomorrow Is A Long Time (Bob Dylan) by snewjackswing1983
Another classic Dylan love song. Simple, yet heartbreaking. Best versions of this song are on the official bootlegs. One of them is a piano version. Maybe I'll try my hand at playing Dylan on the piano one of these days...

Let Me Die In My Footsteps (Bob Dylan)
Let Me Die In My Footsteps by snewjackswing1983
Hey Everybody! It's been such a long time since I've posted any songs on here. So, here's some songs! Bob Dylan songs! Hooray!
To start things of is one of those classic tunes of his that somehow is still applicable to life today. At least in my opinion, it is. Hey government: Stop telling me what to do. Stop fighting stupid war. I'll live till I die. I'll die how I want. With my boots on! So there.
(Also, for any of you familiar with this song, I changed the states in the verse to the ones I've actually lived in. Except for one. If you can name the incorrect one, you get a prize!)

Mama, You Been On My Mind (Bob Dylan)
Mama, You Been On My Mind by snewjackswing1983
I just love this song. Whether to a new lover or perhaps an old friend... just a simple reminder that you're being thought of, prayed for, and there's nothing you've done, or can do, to change that.
Also, I get a kick from playing harmonica with my guitar. I need to get better.

Farewell, Angelina (Bob Dylan)
Farewell, Angelina by snewjackswing1983
Here's a song about... well, I'm not completely sure, but it has some awesome verses. See if you can find the one about playing cards!
All joking aside, I really like this song. It has a soothing, yet sad, sound. I don't know if Angelina was a lover or friend, but something's wrong and it's time to go.
