Just stunning, Bob! Like I've already said to you, I'm seeing an Airbnb not too far from where I live in the Scottish Highlands, looking out onto the Atlantic Ocean, peering through the mist. This is simply too good not to be heard wider!

This song is an anthem of unwavering faith and dedication to serving God. It emphasizes the strength found in unity, perseverance, and the enduring power of love in the Lord's work.

LYRICS:
Guess I'm a dreamer - Karmic believer
Ways of the world - twists and the turns
Rhymes and the reasons we yearn - we burn for each other

So when you appeared - I thought it was fate
Felt the desire - no reason to wait
From smolder to fire - we quickly conspired with each other

CHORUS - But from the first glance - to our last dance 
We were a bad match - and we had no chance
And there's no one I can blame - I burned my finger from the flame
Of a bad match - a bad match

Realizing too late we did everything wrong
Too short on time to have feelings so strong
And I mourn in the dark for the death of our spark for each other

If an ember remains- never will be the same
The warmth in my heart has a face but no name
Some fires don't quit - were they meant to stay lit for each other 

CHORUS - But from the first glance - to our last dance
We were a bad match - and we had no chance
And there's no one we can blame - like when the moth flies thru the flame
Of a bad match - a bad match 

BRIDGE - Over and over I try to pretend
The circle of life will bring love back again
The wheel goes around never reaching the end
It picks up the pace then starts over again

CHORUS - We were a bad match - right from the first glance
We were a bad match - and we had no chance
And there's nothing we can change - the result will stay the same
Cause we're a bad match - a bad match - Just a bad match - We're a bad match.

BAD MATCH

The great news is the song co written with Mike Baldwin, Can't Lose Those Memories, has won the Country category in the UK Songwriting Contest 2024.  I've had a few final places but never a win, I'm a very happy man.  Thank you for wonderful lyrics Mike.
I have been a guitar player and lead vocalist since the age of 13, performing in bands of varying genres including Pop, Heavy Rock, Folk & Modern Country.  Main instrument is the guitar, influenced by a variety of artistes and styles including Mark Knopfler, The Eagles, Don Williams, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Deep Purple and Santana. This has helped me to perform and write in different genres but I particularly enjoy Americana, modern country music and instrumental themes/incidental music.  
I play keyboard well enough to provide accompaniment and additional instrumentation to my recordings.  Now retired, I write, record and produce from a home studio.  Songwriting successes include shortlisted lyrics for a Commonwealth Song for HM The Queen in 2022, a song to be presented to Sir Cliff Richard in 2018, several UK Songwriting Contest Finalist Places and appearances on BBC radio in the UK.  I have successful collaborated with several other writers and performers across the UK and US.
