Here's short song no.4 from my short song series. The initial birth of this song was featured in my video "Can I Write A Song In 30minutes?" :    • Can I Write A Song In 30 Minutes?!  
The song was inspired by a line from an episode of How I Met Your Mother, I don't remember the full context of what was happening in the episode but Lily and Robin were at the bar and Lily (who had been together with Marshall for forever) was getting hit on by a number of blokes and she was enjoying it and it had her confused and tempted and then Robin said something along the lines of... "all these guys just want what you already have with Marshall"
I immediately wrote that down in my songwriting notes and years later I finally decided to write a song from it!!

Lyrics:
You see the sun that's shining on the grass that's greener
As the flowers of your garden all are in your rear view mirror
If I may, save you from yourself before you choose
Can I say, what they're searching for is what you stand to lose

Let me help you out, because it's clear to see
That from where I stand you have all you need
What you're holding in your hands doesn't often come around
And they're only looking for what you've already found.

A love as sure and steady, as what you have already
They're only looking for what you've already found.
