So Much More

by @joekennedy

Lyrics

Memory It’s not something I rely on But I never let it lie to me I recall The way the sunbeam hit you And how that made sense of everything

Reckless beauty set me free

The story called for sacred deliverance With a orphan heart I was standing at your door I reached for your hand but instead you held out witness I only asked you for the world but you gave me so much more

Gravity Two bodies set in motion At your little place off Ocean Beach On your back You were carrying the mountain And still you saved a place for me

Patiently you set me free

And today I send this message into silence In the way I’ve done a thousand times before Down at the cross you were there when I found myself I only needed everything, you gave me so much more

Frame by frame replay it all Every last photograph decayed Day by day we turn to fall The summer of stolen love remains It’s weird that you’re not here All these years on In a way you could say you are Yeah it’s weird that you’re not here after all It’s really weird It’s really weird

Wow, this is such a picturesque lyric and the music sets it off perfectly. Strong melody, interesting progressions and structure, this is top shelf pop! Nicely done!

This is the best pop song this year. Wonderful melody and drive with such nostalgic melancholy. I love it. 🙏

Those guitars are so beautiful at the top and all through! And then the song unfolds wondrously with beautiful warm kind vocals. I love the thought of the presence of memory. Lovely song!!!
