Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song in a few hours after getting an inspiration about me wanting a wife. I asked myself, what would I say to God if I if I desired to see a my future wife in a dream. These thoughts spun a melody to the song and cause the lyrics to just flow out of me like an unchallenged stream.

Lyrics
Show Me
Verse 1: I had a brief epiphany, I saw the one for me, she was born and raised in Tennessee, was the perfect sign for me, but when I woke to face reality, It was me and me alone, I await to meet the girl for me, to turn my house into our home.
Hook 1: God please show me my eventual wife to be, does she have dreamy eyes, will she have a love for me, will it be wrong to ask to see her in my dreams tonight, my heart is curious, to take a peek at my future bride.
Verse 2: I may not be the perfect man but my heart is ripe to be, you have taught me how to love for life and love unconditionally. If you open heavens doors tonight and let the brightest star fall down, I vow to catch her in my arms tonight and show the world what I just found.
Hook 2: God please show me my eventual wife to be, does she have dreamy eyes, will she have a love for me, will it be wrong to ask to see her in my dreams tonight, my heart is curious, to take a peek at my future bride.
Bridge: How much longer will this journey last, my heart is achy and breaking fast, will this lonesome winding road come to an end. It ain't good for man to be alone, my patient days have waned and gone, is it wishful thinking, am I chasing the wind?
Hook 3: God please show me my eventual wife to be, does she have dreamy eyes, will she have a love for me, will it be wrong to ask to see her in my dreams tonight, my heart is curious, to take a peek at my future bride.
Hook 4 Modulation: God please show me my eventual wife to be, does she have dreamy eyes, will she have a love for me, will it be wrong to ask to see her in my dreams tonight, my heart Is curious to take a peek at my future bride.
My heart is curious, to take a peek at my future bride. ****Oh------------UH----.
