    Default Here Goes Nothing

    This is a song I'm toying with and was hoping to get some feedback on.




    Long legs crossed and smiling at a party on the beach;
    In a lawn chair being licked by the ocean tide.
    She sat with long blonde hair and blazing blue eyes,
    in a white summer dress drawn up to her thighs;
    A beer in her hand and high heels by her side.

    Fingers crossed and nervous I lumbered through the sand;
    wearing blue jean shorts and sandals on my feet.
    I walked up to her and I told her hello,
    expecting that she would just tell me to go;
    She said "Hi nice to meet you, please have a seat."

    I thought
    Here goes nothing
    (What does that mean?)
    Here goes nothing
    (It means everything)
    Here goes nothing
    (That's just a lie)
    Here goes nothing
    (But it's worth a try)

    I never thought that I would have a chance,
    Or that I would even get a second glance.
    She was out of my league but I had to try;
    It was now or never, it was do or die.

    Here goes nothing
    (What does that mean?)
    Here goes nothing
    (It means everything)
    Here goes nothing
    (That's just a lie)
    Here goes nothing
    (But it's worth a try)

    Long legs crossed and smiling by the fireplace in our house;
    In the blue chair where she always sits to sew.
    She wears wire rim glasses and shoulder length hair;
    an open white nightgown that leaves a leg bare;
    Reminding me of that night ten years ago.

    Thinking
    Here goes nothing
    (What does that mean?)
    Here goes nothing
    (But it's everything)
    Here goes nothing
    (That's just a lie)
    Here goes nothing
    (But it's worth a try)

    Because man she sure is something
