A song written by my sister and I in college, and recorded while I was in grad school, has now been released on Spotify, iTunes and other platforms! Lyrics for the song are below, including our original video recording on YouTube.

 

 

 

Concrete Man

Heart made of concrete

Pair of hands made of stone

Eyes like an ocean

Far away and cold.

 

Promises you’ve broken

Nothing true, what you said

Vows that you’ve broken and things left unspoken

Are good as dead.

 

But ooooh

I’ve got a right

To love and be loved.

 

But ooooh 

I’ve got a right

To love and be loved.

 

I had to realize

Its easier letting go

Building inside a fortress to hide

And finally letting go

 

When you said

Our hearts will mend

I had a little hope

But now that I’m leaving

You don’t have a reason

To raise my hopes.

 

But ooooh

I’ve got a right

To love and be loved.

 

But ooooh 

I’ve got a right

To love and be loved.

 

And I know that you said

I’m sorry (I’m sorry)

And I know that you said

But I had to say, “goodbye.”
