Lyrics & Music by:  Ian McLeish
 

1.
I've been halfway 'round the world, I've heard tunes in every town -
From near and far and here and there, it's never let me down;
Yes, music's been my mistress - so far that's been true -
But I think I see some music in you.

2.
It's really oh so simple - I should have thought of it before -
'Cause sometimes I confuse myself - I never know the score;
But you girl, you're repaying a debt I'm sure was due -
And I'm sure I see some music in you.

Bridge 1.
Tossed by the waves, we build bridges until -
Tamed by the wind, we let go;
Of hope and the chance for that final romance -
Did you think that you're scars didn't show?

Bridge 2.
Tempted by love's sweet promise we run -
Elegant fools in the rain;
'Til time and tide turn that ghost on the run -
And bring back the sunshine again.

3.
There's nothing I wouldn't do for you -
Is that a promise in your eyes?
A chance to glimpse and maybe hold the truth in compromise;
I can't say what will happen - each day's a page, it's true -
But I want to find - I've got to find -
I'm sure I'll find my music in you.
