about

Waltzy pop? Slightly carousel-like and dreamy, with vibes. It's a little retro, but also contemporary, jazzy, chill, melodic, poppy singer-songwriter stuff.

lyrics

All My Life
© April, 2016 by David Nyro

I've been alone and on my own  
too many nights to believe in this dream of a home,

someone to hold onto all of my life, 
I always knew there was a  'you' in

the world          
la la la la la la la la

I always fought against the nature of things
I resisted the paths others seemed to choose for me
I was going to be the one who would never give in
I was hardened on the outside but brittle beneath   
It was only a fool's disguise  
I was bound and determined to live my own life
Nothing, and no one, could compromise me

Chorus:

I've been alone and on my own too many nights 
to believe in this dream of a home,

someone to hold onto all of my life, 
I always knew there was a 'you' in

the world  la la la la la la la la

How do I unlearn the lessons of life?  
Where love came in the night, wielding a knife     
I don't want to scare you
I'm scared enough for two
Give me a chance to break through

I've been alone and on my own
too many nights to believe in this dream of a home,
someone to hold onto all of my life, 
I always knew there was a 'you' in

the world   la la la la la la la la
