Story Behind The Song

This one should be obvious. I wrote this to express the intensity of delight there is in a very strong relationship.

Song Description

This is a cross between contemporary and modern jazz song with a blend of organ, flute and saxophone.

Lyrics

Delight
© 2012, John Gerard Macchietto

Verse 1: I wake up to a pounding rain
Beating on my window pain
And it don't bother me at all -
That my Summer's turned to Fall
'Cause you lay there by my side
A warming heart I can confide
In your delight -- In your deli--ight
In your delight -- In your delight.

Verse 2: I listen to the thunder crash
Lightning in my bedroom flash
For the storm outside is fierce
My life's armor soon to pierce
Yet you hold me there so tight
That I know I'll be alright
In your delight -- In your deli--ight
In your delight -- In your delight.

Verse 3: Seems no matter what I do
My mind's always stuck on you
It's my heart that you console
You have touched my very soul
And my love I shall recite,
"You make all my Autumns bright"
With your delight -- With your deli--ight
With your delight -- With your delight.

Instrumental

Verse 4: Everytime you draw me near
You strip off some of my veneer
Like a boastful man exposed
Been less naked without clothes
And it serves me well despite
My fear of blissful flight
In your delight -- In your deli--ight
In your delight -- In your delight.

Verse 5: I wish that you could plainly see
How your beauty captures me
Like a candle's mystic glow
'Cross the freshly fallen snow
Which drives me to invite
Passion fires to ignite
With your delight -- With your deli--ight
With your delight -- With your delight.

Instrumental

Verse 6: I wake up to a pounding rain
Beating on my window pain
And it don't bother me at all -
That my Summer's turned to Fall
'Cause you lay there by my side
A warming heart I can confide
In your delight -- In your deli--ight
In your delight -- In your delight.
In your delight -- In your delight.
In your delight -- In your delight.
