This is meant to be an ode to middle aged love, but I don’t know if anyone would figure that out unless I told them.
Love After Life
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
things seem dire
like we can’t get much higher
but the ring of my phone
makes me emit one last moan
liars come and go
but your love shows
after life seems over
I can get a do-over
love after life
feels just right
love after light
fills my heart with delight
when the game seems at and end
there’s no more room for the midnight sun
the need for a little sin is over
life is fading in my heart
don’t think anything can get it to jump start
you come into my life with a grin
making me want to sing
what more could I ask for at this time
but someone to help think up my rhymes
you’re here for my overtime
long after it seems no one cares
you give me reason to believe again
love after life
feels just right
love after light
fills my heart with delight
[bridge]
maybe life’s not over just yet
I’m willing to play that bet
roll over and let me see
the joys you want to bring to me
love after life
love after life
love after life
love after life
