lyrics

There's something 'bout a way out
when it's lonely and the fire's down.
There's something 'bout a smile
when there's reason just to cry.
There's something 'bout the presence
of another when the night's long.
There's nothing like forgiveness
when you know it's been a while.
And who put forever
in our hearts and our stories?
And who dared to tell us
it's all right?
And who said that always
wasn't quite so hard?
And who gave us happy ever afters?
And maybe I've been dancing
'round the chances I've been given.
And I've heard the best of
is the rest of your life.
There's something 'bout words and
quiet moments make them real.
I'll laugh along the way,
for the good days yet to come.

about

Miriam Marston Portland, Oregon

I started composing when I was 10. I called one of my first songs "Nostalgia", although I can't recall what my ten year old self was so nostalgic about. Released my first album in 2000. Things got busy, but I never stopped writing. Even if it meant composing on a mostly-broken piano in the basement of a university that I wasn't even enrolled in. Enjoy all the music and reading! Pax.
