lyrics

LYRICS:

I wrote a love song for myself,
when nobody else would.

I got a feelin’ that I’m not the only one
who could use a little love song,
written just for you.
So if you listen now,
your song has just begun.

I wrote you a love song.
I swear to god that it’s true.
It’s not a song for some-body else.
This love song’s for you.

I wrote a love song cuz I could,
but maybe you’re afraid.
You got a feelin’ that
you don’t deserve a song

But what you think and what you are
are often not the same.
You’re beautiful, and true,
and kind, and strong.

So I wrote you a love song.
I swear to god that it’s true.
It’s not a song for some-body else.
This love song’s for you.
This love song—

I wrote you a love song.
I swear to god that it’s true.
It’s not a song for some-body else.
This love song…
is just for you.

about

Josh Barkey Waxhaw, North Carolina

I grew up barefoot in the Amazon jungle, catching and eating piranhas before they could catch and eat me.

After hand planting around half a million baby trees in the wilds of Canada, I cut my creative teeth as a painter, poet, writer of fiction, sculptor, and filmmaker.

Now (on the eve of an apocalypse) seemed as good a time as any to add another art form to the mix.
