Hi all,
Wrote this one over Christmas and New Year and have finished mixing it.
Is sung from a female perspective ideally (but you'll have to settle for my voice for now), so interested if you all feel I am putting myself in the place of the character convincingly in the lyrics.
Lots of strings in the latter half of the song and hopefully I have integrated them into the analogue sounds ok.
You be the judge...and watch out for the fade in, starts quiet then kicks in pretty soon.
Tom.

Do you recall the day we met?
You promised me devotion
So why why why am I left so blue,
With nothing but your name on my tattoo?
And did you mean it when you said,
Forever and for always?
Oh why why why am I left so blue,
With nothing but your name on my tattoo?
You said a man must leave his mark
But all you left was, me with a broken heart
Wishing I could start anew
But can i ever really do that?
I tell my friends that we're all thru
But I still got your name on my tattoo
Under the cover of the night
For a moment, I start to feel alright
How can I meet somebody new,
And it really be for ever?
Without them ever asking who...
Who's is that name on my tattoo?
I'll never forget you,
You'll always be the name of my tattoo
