Most of you won't remember this, but this is how you turn a poem into a song. It wasn't actually a poem though, it was just a "note". Critiques welcome!

If I ever had to choose, between life and lovin you
I know where my heart would stand
and if I ever had, everything to lose
I'd put it all right in your hands

Cus everything you've given me
and all that you are
is more than I could ever hope to be
look into my eyes, you can see, read my mind
You're the best part of me

If you ever have a doubt, we can talk it out
I want you to know I'm here
I can take the tears, you can cry outloud
you've got nothing to fear

CHORUS

Bridge:
You can hold the love inside
Baby I can see you're trying
there's something you wanna say
Don't let me get in your way
I'm on your side

If you think you're gonna fall
when your back's against the wall
hold on to me, I'm strong
Nothing you would you ever say
could make my heart turn away
I'll be with you through it all

CHORUS

Great song lyrics, and what makes it great is the fact that you are telling your love nothing he could say would make you turn away. The song has that theme, and is a true blue country song.

I really enjoyed listening to this song. An ear-catching intro, and a great voice with a lovely country twang. I'm sure the lack of communication was over when the person to whom it was dedicated heard the song.
