ABOUT

Song8 - FAWM Widow

This song is for my wife, and is also dedicated to all the other Significant Others who give up time with us FAWMers and who help us and support us in our endeavor.

This is one of those strange occurrences where a song appears to me and all the components were in my head immediately. This is not always a good thing. The words popped out and created their own melody, which then demanded a very specific chord progression and even key. You can be the judge on whether it lives up to the subject matter.

LYRICS

FAWM Widow

my guitar looks so pretty
it sits well on my knee
but your more beautiful to me
and this tune might be sweet
I might think it's kinda neat
but you mean so much more to me

My mixer might look sleek
but i'd rather have your cheek
pressed against my scruffy beak
my amp might keep me warm
but i'd rather have your arms
and have you warming up to me

I'm standing here alone
with my loaded microphone
but I'd rather have you here with me
you've been banished from the room
so I can figure out this tune
that's the way it happens to be
the way it is, unfortunately

The songs come pretty slow
sometimes they don't show
no good art comes for free
the happy ending to this tune
I'll be with you real soon
with nowhere else I want to be

I'm standing here alone
with my loaded microphone
but I'd rather have you here with me
I'll emerge from this room
and we'll sing this happy tune
that is what you're gonna see
that's the way it's gonna be
