Hi, I'm new here...
I'm in the process of finishing an album of songs I wrote over the last few years. This is slightly newer, and I would like to know what people think. I normally write very depressing songs lyrically, but this is my first positive love song! I would not normally write such obvious lyrics, but I was trying to express something quite simply! It was written for my partner about a year ago.
I recorded it on a little Zoom H1, just my acoustic, and in the second half some doubling of vocals and acoustic bass, and my friends harmonies. It's not a good recording but you get the idea.
I feel the song is finished, but obviously I would hope to bring it to life when recording it properly, so this can be considered a very rough demo!

Press your feet so gently down
I left a message there for you to find somehow
If your body aches tonight
Don't be sad I'll sit here by your side
------------------------------------------------
Now I'm wide awake and full of love
When I'm with you I've found my way
Now I'm wide awake and full of love
I never thought I'd be this way------------------------------------------------
Tell me all your secret things
Hold me down and kiss me so I won't feel a thing
If you find you're lost in doubt
Don't be scared I'll blow those cobwebs out
------------------------------------------------
