Lyrics:
Sometimes it's hard to be alone and I can't help that.
Some days it's easy on your own, but that won't bring back

All those missed opportunities and all those close calls
And I can't forgive myself for what I did to you most of all
Baby you got me and I all I can do now is try to be better.
You got me singing all these words but I don't know if I can deliver.

Some days hard when you're not here, sometimes it's easy.
Some days I live without this fear but it's within me.

All of those times you went away, all those times you stayed near.
I don't know what it is but I feel so alive with this fear.
I contemplate my future, falling upstream in this river.
You got me singing all these words but I don't know if I can deliver.

It's growing under my skin, I don't know how I can go on.
This stalling and sequestered heart hidden deep in the shores of its wrong.
This loving embrace that brought me such joy is now met with a shiver.
You got me singing all these words but I don't know how I can deliver.

Love the style and both of the vocals and guitar... reminds me of Ben Howard. Like the lyrics too.

Really nice song... I'd like to hear more of your stuff.

Very good song although I'm hearing discrepancies between the lyrics posted and words recorded which suggest to me your still not 100% happy with the final draft? Maybe just me.

Very good song though.

Very good song with deep and true emotions!  :)

About mixing: I think that electric guitar is a little bit too loud especially in the last choruses, it's hard to hear your voice.

Hi there:


Nice song, I like the melody in the verse it's quite catchy, I am not really an expert in this style of music so I am unsure of how best to advise.

I think that the song could benefit from a bridge that's a bit different. But other than than that I think that it is a good song.


Kind Regards
Diane
