ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 267

Anyone who knows me knows that the past two years or so have been a complete nightmare. I have been to some pretty dark places. My guitar was often my therapist and this song came out of a particularly bleak period. Hopefully it shows that there is light at the end of the tunnel. This is for everyone who kept in touch with me, sent me lovely messages of support and those that showed me the true meaning of friendship. The old adage you only find out who your true friends are in a crisis is absolutely true. So this is my present to you download for FREE and please share it with anyone going through tough times. Lots of love Steve xxx c 2013

The Carpenters - Sing A Song(Instrumental)

Ain’t it funny how it worked out?
Well, my friends all had their doubts,
They said that’s the reason why we quit, not the reason why we fit,
Well did it seem to you, all I ever wanted to be used, you must be confused

But that’s fine with me, I guess I was only a daydream
But that’s fine with me, I guess I was only a daydream

Do you ever think of me? 
Do you ever think of me? 
Do you ever think of me? 
Do you ever think of me?

Da da da da, Mmmhmm
Da da da da, Mmmhmm

Should’ve known you were trouble way back when, 
I wish I had listened to them, listened to my friends
But I've always been the one to go for the guys who always tell the lies
Wonder if I’ll ever learn or if I’ll ever realise

But that’s fine with me, I guess I was only a daydream
But that’s fine with me, I guess I was only a daydream

Do you ever think of me? 
Do you ever think of me? 
Do you ever think of me? 
Do you ever think of me?

Da da da da, Mmmhmm
Da da da da, Mmmhmm

You say you get a lot of attention 
Is that the only reason you’re confessing, 
That you’re over and gone and clearly moving on,
But is there something else that you forgot to mention
I don't want to try and aim to be perfection,
Just for a minute of your time and your affection 
But it’s fine, you’re no longer mine...
I’ve been wondering if you ever think of me?

Do you ever think of me?
Do you ever think of me?
Do you ever think of me?
Do you ever think of me?

A Cave in the inside

Nightwalk

'I found home' pretty accurately sums up the life I've chosen to live.  We recorded this version of the song on the 9th of January 2017 and as I listened to the playback, the lyrics pierced my heart with the unblemished truth of it all.  I know that I wouldn't change anything even if I could.
