Something to Me Songtext
von Tift Merritt

All the song I love the best, the one my father taught to me
The kindness of a stranger is dust from an unseen wing
But an old friend at my table is by far the finest thing
This tired mile could give to me

All the colors of the man I love are deepest blue and green
And it isn′t very often that I say just what I mean
'Cause the feelin′ seems to scatter and these words fall in between
For what I miss, I'll just tell you this

It's something to me
It′s something to me
I don′t know what it comes to and it's not so much to see
But you take tomorrow so long as you know
It′s something to me
It's something to me

Gentle is the road within me and it′s gently I depart
'Cause these well-worn threads of daylight will sometimes come apart
Giving way to all the shadows where no one can hear your heart
So down in the dark, if that′s where you are


It's something to me
It's something to me
I don′t know what it comes to and it′s not so much to see
But you take tomorrow so long as you know
It's something to me
It′s something to me

Well the tender hands of mornin' have given up a new sunrise
And we all get up together in our ordinary lives
Going one step for another giving up has crossed my mind
I′ll take a long day, come round the right way

It's something to me
It′s something to me
Don't know what it comes to and it's not so much to see
But you take tomorrow so long as you know
It′s something to me
It′s something to me

You take tomorrow (you take tomorrow)
So long as you know (so long as you know)
It's something to me
It′s something to me
