lyrics

Won't you stop cryin' on the couch beside me?
With your mind all the way back there
Come on take your face out of that pillowcase
I know you miss them I know you care

Never planned to be in San Diego
Never planned for a lot of things
Never planned to lose my luggage
You never planned to change your strings

So I picked up my guitar and sang
The first thing that came to my mind
This ain't a song that'll ever change the world one day
It's a song to say you're gonna be fine
You're gonna be fine fine fine fine fine fine fine
All this will heal in time

Well won't you stop crying and come back from down the hall
I know you're stressed and tired
Just get some sleep and when you wake up in the morning
You'll hear a song that you've inspired

Never planned to come back to camp this year
Never planned that I'd return
Never thought I could change for anything
Never thought I'd learn

Chorus

I know you hate it when I cry
But tonight I can't hold it in
I haven't been sleeping much these days
Love and leaving have worn me thin

Never planned to love this summer
Never planned for a lot of things
Never planned to sing a song like this
Sorry I forgot to change my strings

So I listened to your guitar and sang
The first thing that came to my mind
This ain’t a song that’ll ever change the world one day
It's a song to say I’m/you’re gonna be fine
I’m/You're gonna be fine fine fine fine fine fine fine
All this will heal in time

Dan Kahn Baltimore, Maryland

Having been influenced by experiences writing for a ska band in New Jersey, I have decided to start writing acoustic music. I'm a very strong believer in "Do it Yourself", which is why I write/record all of my own material. I also believe that a song is never "done". It just continues to evolve, making those drafts I sent out to people three years ago fun, embarrassing, and neat way to see growth. ... more
