Liner Notes

#acoustic #blues
A little alliteration won’t stop me from singing the blues.

Lyrics

It is not a big house
But lately it seems empty and cold
And all the things I do
How did they get so useless and old
All the words that I write
Today they do not mean a thing
I still post every song
But no one will hear me sing

That’s just the way
I say that’s just the way it goes
I’ve been missing Miss Mystic
And somehow I know she knows

It’s a house with three doors
I’m the only one who holds a key
But sometimes late at night
I can feel someone is watching me
Watching me from a distance
Probably watching me from the Moon
That’s just too far away
I hope she comes back soon

That’s just the way
I say that’s just the way it goes
I’ve been missing Miss Mystic
And somehow I know she knows

I say that’s just the way
I say that’s just the way it goes
I’ve been missing Miss Mystic
And somehow I know she knows

Agree that this is a strong set of lyrics with such longing and emotion that is amplified by your well paced delivery.

Really strong lyrics. I like the mix of metaphor and reality like “ I still post every song / But no one will hear me sing”

I really like the pace of the song too. Really gives the whole thing a lot of weight. Nice work.
