Liner Notes

I liked this prompt and came up with. this...

Lyrics

When things were tough and I was feeling down I turned to you, like some comfortable shoes And I gave thanks, as I papered over the cracks But it didn’t last and I didn’t move on And so I listened instead to some sad songs

And the funny thing was they didn’t make me sad They made me realise the good things I had So I listened to all the heartache poured out And I wondered why I was ever in doubt It’s funny sometimes how we look at the world

The power of the mind is a wondrous thing It can raise you up, make a pauper a king The power of the mind is an incredible thing It can reverse the scorpion’s sting The power of the mind, when thoughts are refined

I turn to you, I turn to you, I turn to you

Wow, two great entries to the skirmish. Loving both of them. Great harmonies on this one.

I found myself thinking of a further metaphor of your shoes idea...maybe turning to someone while wearing comfortable shoes with a practiced step or perhaps a gentle dancing movement.

Nice work, wonderfully written and wonderfully played. Like the harmony. Really cool take on the prompt. Well done
