about

"What I Want" is an original song. Music and lyrics written (and performed) by Gary Wicks. Its a sample of what he considers poetry style story telling. Its a song about love and yearning and trying to find ways to communicate and convey what we feel.

lyrics

I was waiting on an angel
I thought it might be you
I move along the shadow lines
A stone's throw from view
You said I can do anything
Anything at all
So I might just pack my things
And move along alone

What I want
What I'd do
Just to paint it all in words
But I think
I can play it for you
On a Sunday afternoon

The city streets are blurred now
As we streak across the sky
The lights flicker in shades of blue
We're running far to hide
I overheard a symphony tell a simple song
A story sure to move
With a southern thirst they drank for long
While they watched her move
The stars fell from the highest high
Twisted and turning 'round the moon
Punch-drunk I fall into the night
Lost inside their tune

What I want
What I'd do
Just to paint it all in words
But I think
I can play it for you
On a Sunday afternoon
