All I've got.

Me and my buddy had a little improv session going on. I started playing a simple twelve bar blues and he played a sweet little riff over it. We both started groovin' and everything just felt right y'know. Before hand we were talking about a girl we both know (she smokes a lot of marijuana, and can't go a few hours without a hoot. I've known here for years, she's an awesome girl but loves to get stoned. ) and the lyrics are somewhat inspired by her and other discussions me and my friend had. These lyrics were spur of the moment so they aren't the best.

All I've Got

Well it's hard to remember
When you surrendered
Yourself to green
Now surrender to me

The thrill of the moment
We've all known it
Tell me what you see
What could it be?

Look at the past
You'll forget where you're goin'
Look at the future
You'll forget where you've gone
All I've got is this one moment
It's not where you've been
It's where you are!

What you want
Isn't what you need
What you need
Isn't what you want
Don't regret what you don't have
Just be thankful for what you've got

Everything you've known
Well it's all changed
And if it hasn't
It just ain't the same

Look at the past to prepare for the future
Predict the future by looking at the past
It's not who we've been or where we're goin'
It's who we know and where we are

*Solo*

Now it's easy to remember
Why you surrendered
Yourself to green
Hate who you've been?

The thrill of the moment
You controlled it
You were part of the scene
D'you know what I mean?

Look at the past
you'll forget where you're goin'
Look at the future
You'll forget where you've gone
All I've got is this one moment
It's not who you've been
It's who you are

What you want isn't what you need
What you need isn't what you want
Don't regret what you never had
To get the good you gotta take the bad

All I've got is this one moment
All I've got is this chance to shine
I've only got this one moment
I'm gonna take a chance
I'm gonna make you mine

My buddy actually wants me to come to his show and play this song. I can't sing all that well, and am really nervous about playing in front of people. I'll be at his show regardless just don't know if I'll be comfortable infront of an audience. I guess we'll see.
