Songs of Elsewhen

This page is for the songs we have written for each other and ourselves. Below is a song by Edward Osenbaugh written in 1975. We are looking for the chords and the title. It may well be Untitled #1. Linda Madison sent me this song a couple of months ago. Thanks Linda for helping to get this page started.

 

You don't want to stay where no one wants you

At least that's how it seems

When you're troubled walking alone

All you've got are dreams

Lying shattered at your feet

I know how it feels, babe

I really do

You don't want to stay where no one wants you

But I do.

And there are people here

A home to build

Although the road is filled with fears

A bird can still fly with broken wings

If it takes the time to heal

Don't give up

It's not as bad as it seems

You can go on to new and better dreams.

I still love you

I always will

I hold you in my heart

Where my mind is still.

Let me hold you when you're troubled

Don't be afraid of my guitar

Because it is my voice when I have to say

What I feel

Deep in my heart.

A guitar is a way to touch

Love is a way to hold gently

Yet cannot be broken unless you try.

Give us a chance, love

Don't say good-bye.
