Brad Gordon and I wrote this song Boundaries originally for the movie Twilight but alas it did not make it into the soundtrack…almost but not quite. You can hear it tonight on the 2 hour season premiere of Greys Anatomy. Check it out here now at www.itunes.com/am or http://bit.ly/ambound

BOUNDARIES

I try not to see the warning

Hide the worry across my face

And you still hold me

My mind is a violent ocean

Between love and what others say

Could they know me

Oooooohhhh

Oooooohhhh

Is it safe to remove our boundary

Will the road be built for two

Would I be lonely

Is this an historic story

Together, our bodies blue

Or will you own me

Ooooooohhhh

Ooooooohhhh

You still hold me

Could they know me

I’ll be lonely (my mind is an ocean)

Will you own me (my love will hold me)

You still hold me (hold me)
