So Far
T.S. Evans 5/14/97

We've come so far
At times I can't believe it's true
But there you are
Here I'm lying next to you
Watching you sleep
Wondering what you're dreaming of
Gently you stir
Softly I speak words of love


Is it me you're dreaming of?
Or is it something else that fills your mind
I promise you that I will try
To be the one you always hoped to find


You're my best friend
It's been that way since we first met
When I'm weary
You can help me to forget
I was so down
You taught me how to rise above
My fears, my doubts
Pushed them all away with love


Is it me you're dreaming of?
Or is it something else that fills your mind
I promise you that I will try
To be the one you always hoped to find


Oh it's hard
At times there's nothing I can do
But pray in time
You'll find that what I say is true
Precious you are
To me I could not let you go
And when you cry
It makes me wonder if you know

Do you know I love you so?
You're the one who's always on my mind
I promise you that I will try
To be the one you always hoped to find


Oh do you know I love you so?
You're the one who's always on my mind
I promise you I'd never lie
You're the one I always hoped to find

So Far will always be special to me. I wrote the melody and lyrics to this song shortly after moving to California. I wasn't working at the time so I had plenty of time to play guitar. One day I just sat down to fiddle with I guitar part that caught my fancy and out came the melody. The lyrics fell in to place almost effortlessly and the song was finished in about four hours. I had never experienced such easy creativity and I'm still waiting for it to happen again.
