I've Got a Thing

I’ve Got a Thing
Words & Music: David Temple

I've got a thing for a setting sun
And leaves that fall from the trees
I've got a thing for the ocean air
And birds that sail on the breeze

Chorus:
But something that shines beyond these things
That makes the world feel new
Oh, I've got a thing for a lot of things
But I really got a thing for you

Love a cup of coffee to start my day
And a little ride through the park
Playing some music beside the fire
Gazing and naming the stars

But something that shines beyond these things
That makes the world feel new
Oh, I've got a thing for a lot of things
But I really got a thing for you

Bridge:
It's music when I hear your voice
Your brilliant eyes are true
The magic touch of your golden hands
And the endless mystery that's you

I've got a thing for an old love song
And a movie that makes you cry
I've got a thing for feet in the sand
Or sailing with the sun in your eye

 

 


 

Chorus:
But something that shines beyond these things
That makes the world feel new
Oh, I've got a thing for a lot of things
But I really got a thing for you

Bridge:
It's music when I hear your voice
Your brilliant eyes are true
The magic touch of your golden hands
And the endless mystery that's you

I've got a thing for a setting sun
And leaves that fall from the trees
I've got a thing for the ocean air
And birds that sail on the breeze

But something that shines beyond these things
That makes the world feel new
Oh, I've got a thing for a lot of things
But only one thing will do

Forever and always I'll be true
'Cause I've got a thing for you
