The Love I Want To Show (Solo)

from Seeds by Chet Nichols

/

about

This track is about finally making commitments to yourself to make the changes that are needed to push away the "ties that bind" us to lives we are NOT inspired by. It is about holding those commitments above all other things and learning to love ourselves so we can love others without allowing failings in our lives to holding us down from growing and giving.

Verse One
Its taken time to sort things out
But, now it’s clear what my life is about
What’s been missing for me is the love I want to show
I vow to give all that I can
To make a difference and take a stand
Against old habits that hide the love I want to show
Lift
I swear from this moment to love a different way
Because if I don’t, how will I rise above the mistakes I have made?
Chorus
I have learned to open my heart
Tear down the walls that keep my love from getting out
I’ll swing open the door for the love I want to show

Musical Bridge

Verse Two
The world outside loves to pretend
That I’ll be hurt if I change my direction
But I’ll put a fight for the love I want to show
Lift
How strong can my love be if I’m too afraid?
To make the changes I need to and keep the new promises I’ve made
Chorus
I have learned to love myself
So I’ll be ready to love somebody else
I’ll swing open the door for the love I want to show
I’ll swing open the door for the love I want to show
