Blood…sweat…tears…a little urine… (No, no urine really)…
…and wallah! I have written a song. It’s called “All The Colours”. I have videoed myself playing it, although I must warn you the quality is shocking and my facial expressions are alarming. I couldn’t upload it straight to this blog, as it wants to charge me like £50. I don’t have that kind of money, I’m unemployed here!
Hopefully this link will work…

The instrumentation will change for the final version, I think there’ll be some strings in there, with less of an acoustic guitar sound and more of an almost instrumental backing.
Here are the lyrics so far:
I have a feeling
That this moment’s lost in time
No seconds left to go over my lines
I want to ad lib with you
But the stage is set tonight
I interject
All my life, you’ve been beside me
And your voice keeps me warm in my heart
And I know that you will find me
It just takes me much longer to start
All the colours x 3
We’ll see
This is a feeling
And it’s captured in your eyes
Like patterns in the window glint in the sunrise
Tell me you didn’t know
That I’m in love with you
All of you
All my life, you’ve been beside me
And your voice keeps me warm in my heart
And I know that you will find me
It just takes me much longer to start
You will never find x 3
Someone like me
When the sunset breaks the violet sky
And the indigo passioned sea will rise
The red hot fire rushes through my eyes
I feel alive
All my life, you’ve been beside me
And your voice keeps me warm in my heart
And I know that you will find me
It just takes me much longer to start
You will never find x 3
Someone like me
All the colours x 3
We’ll see
xx
