David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

Searching for myself,
Endlessly, so long,
Something very deep inside
Now tells me, “write this song”.

I try to grasp my mind’s eye,
It slips around inside,
Evading what I really want
And lets me think I tried.

Finding self inside my mind,
In pictures that have left me blind,
To what I really need to know,
So I can feel some freedom.

Chorus
I know I’ve been both woman and man,
You need some proof, just do a scan,
Our memories hold what we have been,
Negate they’re there, or just come clean.
Different bodies left in time,
Answering questions still on your mind,
Sorta knowing it may be true,
As we make our way to freedom.
______

I sometimes think my mind has gone,
To other times that feel bygone,
It doesn’t do what I intend,
And often drives me round the bend.

Slippery blobs inside my mind,
Hard to grasp but always trying,
Getting better at looking in,
And learning about my freedom.

Chorus
I know I’ve been both woman and man,
You need some proof, just do a scan,
Our memories hold what we have been,
Negate they’re there, or just come clean.
Different bodies left in time,
Answering questions still on your mind,
Sorta knowing it may be true,
As we make our way to freedom.

Confusions as to yearnings felt,
Male or female all under the belt,
Captivated beyond control,
Seems much more than just their soul.

Male and female we have been,
Answers questions to how we feel,
Different bodies left in our mind,
Welcome to the sands of time.
