Lyrics: Less Than a Revelation


So here I sit -

Splitting the hairs with time.

So where's the one I dreamed of,

By my side?


I know I don't know what I want,

but I know I need someone.


[Low voice] Oooh, uh-ooh-ooh, uh-ooh-ooh


Meanwhile;

It's just me an my guitar.


All I need tonight is a woman

To make it all seem alright.

I just need someone

To share the night.


[Low voice - muted] Oooh, uh-ooh-ooh, uh-ooh-ooh

[Low voice - muted] Oooh, uh-ooh-ooh, uh-ooh-ooh


We keep our love

Under the lock and key.

Afraid to ask or answer

To our needs.


We stick to all our private fantasies,

And eliminate the true love, that breathes.


It was so much less than a revelation

When I was looking for so much more.

I was beside my self to find out;

Tonight I'm alone.


[Instumental]


It was so much less than a revelation

When I was looking for so much more.

I was beside my self to find out;

Tonight I'm alone.


All I need tonight is a woman

To make it all turn out right.

I just need someone

To share the night.


All I need tonight is a woman...

[Low voice] Ooh ooh ooh

To have,

To hold,

To remember...



Less Than a Revelation

Background Info

Written in my younger years, this song simply bemoans the spurned longings of a young man.  It is a song that is almost embarrassing because it takes off some of our filters when talking about dating and relationships.


It sometimes seems that love, sex, and relationships are often unnecessarily complicated.  It sometimes seems like a game, at times a cruel game.


To young people, these realizations are sometimes 'learned the hard way' as I am sure I learned almost everything I know.
