about

For the second week I'm all ukelele and melodica'd up. I've always been a huge fan of multiple vocal harmonies AND I've always wanted to get a "shoop-shoop" harmony lyric thing in a tune of mine. Tick that off the list...

Although I've sung all of the harmony parts here I'd love to attack this with a (small) choir at some point. I'll put that on the to-do list...

It's always that way, tick one thing off, add another thing on. I think that's a good thing. :-)

lyrics

Let's take a walk outside,
Enjoy a little daylight,
Feel the warmth of the sunshine,
Kicking back in the breeze.

You'll remember this,
And I'll remember you remembering,
The day we swapped our shoes,
And time stood still while we admired
The shapes I threw in those high heels,
You never wore again,
Because I stretched the straps,
But I made you laugh.

Let's take a walk outside,
Enjoy a little daylight,
Feel the warmth of the sunshine,
Kicking back in the breeze.

The day after I got the call
To tell me that she'd passed.
And it was strange to hear the news,
So long expected but it still gave me a sense of doom,
A closing door
That shuts on all of us eventually.
And you were sweet
I'm still your dancing queen.

Let's take a walk outside,
Enjoy a little daylight,
Feel the warmth of the sunshine,
Kicking back in the breeze.
With the birds and the bees,
I'm ready to breathe.
I'm ready to breathe.
