One stone to another

Skirmish: Crossing the River by Fee... (@dudachris)Liner Notes
#folky #onetake #fingerpicking I had another go and a very different one at that...
Lyrics
Feeling your way, looking for clues The Romans showed us how Distances in milestones From one town to another
Crossing rivers, is no different But you can’t see the stones Use your other senses As the water soaks into your bones
The current might be dangerous But you have come so far To turn back now would be a shame Only got yourself to blame Only got yourself to blame
Feeling your way across the river One stone to another Some are sharp and slippery Just like some folks’s lovers
Feeling your way across the river One stone to another

The mood tells you to take care on this journey. Love the one stone to another approach. This is great.
I'm enjoying the various approaches the skirmishers have chosen, and your impressive vocals and picking. Great skirmish! And, wow, doubling down on the prompt - I bow to your rapid creativity.
Oh wow. 2 songs from the prompt! This is nicely melodic and again, insightful in its lyrical direction.
Beautifully melancholic. I like it.
Oooh this is lovely. The fingerpicking is great and the lyrical picture is great. If you wanted to take this song out into the world I might find a different couplet for the slippery lovers one, it seems to come out of nowhere for me. But ya, excellent work!!
Beautiful. Your voice is really entrancing, I love your style
