	Story Behind the Song this song was one of the last sessions that i did at the Magic Lab studios in langley british columbia in the late spring of '02 just as the studio was winding down. god rest the lab. it was originally a piece about my country home where i grew up as a kid but the music led me to something else. although just as personal. i guess we worked on the song for maybe 3 hours and this is the result. not really mixed, pretty much the way it went down. thanks to mr bill nelson for teaching me about arrows... Lyrics Little boy blue and the man in the moon Must be so proud of u It doesnt seem long since I sat in your room And wished dreams that have now come true It surely couldnt have been me that set u so straight Cuz darlin my lifes been a chase I guess youve been learning as Ive been fumblin along Im so touched by your innocent face I can still hear the chime of a timeless nursery rhyme Must be we were borne the same day But I never bore witness tho Ive been blessed with a glimpse Of someone that knows her own way Love is swift arrows but I need more than words My heart is a temple for u What did I even do to deserve Someone so warm and true There must have been some kind of angel Beside u when u were alone Love is swift arrows and I would shoot one to heaven If I could hold u when the cold wind blows The things we become come easier to some Youve never strayed far from the truth If I missed the insight when I knew u were right Why not just chalk it all up to my youth Cuz I am the child the prodigal sinner But through it all u were always in my prayers And look at u now u are more than a winner And the promise of your sweet lifes everywhere Dont be afraid of the dreams that lay close to your heart They are yours so go dream them Once u are grown and u start building a home Please hold to the ways of your heart U have the secret to life and the sky is the limit So make a wish on the first falling star Little boy blue and the man in the moon Aint got nothin on u It doesnt seem long since I sat in your room And wished dreams that have now come true Love is swift arrows but I need more than words My heart is a temple for u What did I ever do to deserve Someone so warm and true There must have been some kind of angel Beside u when u were alone Love is swift arrows and I would shoot one to the heavens I will hold u when the cold wind blows
