Only Your Love

from Breaking Cover by Ray Zimmerman

about

I've had the basic chord progression for this song for about 10 years but could never quite form it into anything. Turns out (oddly) experimenting with synths and an electronic drum kit was what it needed to come together, hope you enjoy.

lyrics

Is that the train that's coming,
Is that the train that I can see,
Look at all the lonely people,
And now the train's heading straight for me,

Is that the horsemen by my door,
Are they trailing unsaddled steed,
Their ghostly hands present the reins,
But I am not the one they seek,

Cos it's only your love that I ride,
On narrow trails of kindness dear, that you left behind,

Are they chains beneath my feet,
Do you hear the jailor's bell,
His shadow cast against the iron bars,
But I need no key to leave this cell,

Cos it's only your love that I need,
Your touch is like the warden's mark on the note that sets me free,

Is that the wind I feel beneath,
Are they the stars above my head,
Choirs of angels dear call out to me,
But I tell them it's not time for me yet,

Cos it's only your love that I've lost,
And though the scars on my soul will never grow old it was worth all that it cost
