Love’s Odyssey By Jim Kenyon


Verse 1:




[G]Hearts untamed and [D]wild with fire,


[Em] Promises whispered [C]through the night,


[G]Dreams as endless as a [D] heart’s desire.


[Em]Coming to life into the [C]morning light




.




Verse 2


.






[G]We fought and mended, [D]laughed and cried


[Em]Time can bruise the [C] strongest hearts,


[G]Through every tear we’ve [D]had in our eyes,


[Em]We found the spark where [C] healing starts.


.


Chorus


.


[G]Love is like an odyssey, [D]not always smooth or kind,


[C]But my heart’s always been yours, [G] and yours mine.


[Em]I got you, and you got me,[D] together on this ride,


[C]The winds, they may change, but we stand[D] side by side.


[G] After all these years, it’s still just[D] you and me,


[C]Forever bound together… [G] on love’s odyssey


.


Verse 3


.


[G]It wasn’t always easy, but it [D] was always right


[Em]Through every doubt, we [C]never wondered why


[G] With hearts entwined beneath[D] the starry night



[Em]we know after all this time, it’s still[C] just you and I


.


Chorus


.


[G]Love is like an odyssey, [D]not always smooth or kind,


[C]But my heart’s always been yours, [G] and yours mine.


[Em]I got you, and you got me,[D] together on this ride,


[C]The winds, they may change, but we stand[D] side by side.


[G] After all these years, it’s still just[D] you and me,


[C]Forever bound together… [G] on love’s odyssey


.


Bridge


.


[Em]Through every storm, we’ve [C] found our way


[G] Together, stronger, [D] each and every day


[Em] Through darkest nights and [C] the brightest skies


[G]Our love remains forever, [D] it will never die


.


Final Chorus


.


[G]Love is like an odyssey, [D]not always smooth or kind,


[C]But my heart’s always been yours, [G] and yours mine.


[Em]I got you, and you got me,[D] together on this ride,


[C]The winds, they may change, but we stand[D] side by side.


[G] After all these years, it’s still just[D] you and me,


[C]Forever bound together… [G] on love’s odyssey


.


.


[C]Forever bound together… [G] on love’s odyssey.


[C]Forever bound together… [G] on love’s odyssey.

Re: Love's Odyssey

Thanks Jan !  (Whatever happened to the name Kiki Jan smile ?)

I was listening to a  documentary on the Beatles and Paul said something like a critic said that all their early songs were a " Love Odyssey" bc so many of them were about love.   as soon as he said that I thought - that is a cool phrase - good title for a song I thought.   Then my wife and I had a wonderful  weekend enjoying the family and it just got me thinking about her and I and how long we've been together. and all the blessings we have had.
So I just sat down on a patio sofa on our front porch  and started writing on a pad .    Scribbled down a bunch of thoughts. Finished it a few days later.  I wish I could play music as easy as words come to me.  Thanks for you comment really appreciated.
I just saw Grahams post regarding his wife - that was awesome too. Maybe we should've done a song of the month of songs about spouses ! smile

Thanks again Jan
