After the C-crises we can have dinner again for -at least- two.
Well... not here yet.
A fun song in a way ;-)

It was a nice time after all

You invited me that evening
We have dinner for two
The restaurant was not good enough
But at least I was with you

You let me do the conversation
You only smiled and drank all wine
After some bottles you stammered:
"Maybe we'll try it again another time?"

I know when it is over
I know when time has come
No, I won't be sombre
It was a nice time after all

=Solo 1=

I invited you this evening
We have dinner for two
I thought my tiny house was good enough
And I will cook for you

You swore to me to be there
at a quarter past eight
But at ten you phoned me: 
"So sorry, the bus was late, I'm afraid"

I know when it is over
I know when time has come
No, I won't be sombre
It was a nice time after all

=Solo 2=

Bridge
Oh what fool I was, 
I was so blinded
Oh, what time I'd waste
Now you can go to h..., whatever

I know when it is over
I know when my time has come
No, I won't be sombre
It was a nice time after all

I know when it is over
I know when my time has come
No, don't be sombre
It was a nice time after all (3x)

Nice Time After All

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.

Music can describe feelings and thoughts that many people can have!
My thoughts are most of the time postive :-)

I compose songs, write lyrics and sing most of them. I don't have  'one'  style. It depends on my mood or on certain issues that are going on in our world. AND some listeners can even tell which songs are genuine 'Birchwood-songs' (!)
