I woke up one morning last week with the first line of this song in my head. I'm not sure why, but the image of a 'puddle of moonbeams' seeping in through a crack in the window tickled me, and the rest of the lyrics are basically me squeezing the remaining juice out of that initial idea.

Big thanks to @gm7 for bringing the Steve Cropper/BB King vibes on the lead guitar - it really adds an extra layer of gloss on the final track!

(PS. Couldn't resist the little nod to 'Oh! Darling' in the chorus turnarounds.)

LYRICS

There’s a puddle of moonbeams in the corner
Under the cracked window pane
I’ve been trying to get used to living without you
Just me and my troubles again

There’s a scatter of takeaway boxes
A great drift of mail by the door
The weather’s been strange since you left
It's been me and my troubles once more

Just me and my troubles
Holed up in this room
Me and my troubles
Dreaming, oh yeah we're dreaming 
Dreaming of you

There's a sprinkling of dust on the carpet
A newspaper over my knee
Last night it hailed whiskey bottles
That sure was something to see

Just me and my troubles
Holed up in this room
Me and my troubles
Dreaming, oh yeah we're dreaming 
Dreaming of you

Me And My Troubles

Half-British, half-Japanese, South London-based singer-songwriter and producer. Indie pop, rock and blues. Thank you for listening!

Del Wags is the music of Dave Wagoner: a collection of homemade tunes meant to please no particular demographic. Dave is a one- man show of rhythm guitar loops recorded in the basement, choruses born in the shower, lyrics written on the couch, and tracks mixed on the laptop (and the occasional cover). Go ahead, tap your feet.

I played only acoustic guitar and harmonica for many years, playing the same covers alone and occasionally with friends. I never thought I wanted an electric guitar or lots of music gear because I didn't want to accumulate more things. In 2019 by chance I obtained a cheap electric guitar from a friend, and my life changed as this new tool unlocked a creative door. During Covid I bought a looper and a keyboard and began teaching myself to play it, and the creative door flew wide open. I challenged myself to ride the learning curve of home computer music production. I re-tapped into my poetry-writing brain from high school and songs began flying out of me. I haven't been this creative since I was a teenager and it's pure joy.

I'm thankful to have a place here to share my creations, make connections with others, and hear so much unique and wonderful music and sound from people all over the world.
