Not Fair

I just wrote this today so the rhythm is a little off and it may seem like I don't know all the words yet.

Here are the lyrics:

V1)And every time I see your face I wonder why I couldn't have seen it before.

And every time I see your smile I wonder why I couldn't have noticed before.

CH)And I know it ain't right; I try to push the thought aside, but it just hangs like s m oke in the air. It just hangs like rain in my hair. And I know it ain't right, but it's not fair.

V2)And every time I hear your voice I wonder why I couldn't have heard it before. And every time I brush your hand in passing, I wonder why I couldn't have touched you before.
(to CH)

But I have to ask, is that running water in the background?

[jenniferivy07]

Very perceptive, yes, it is my fish tank... my camera picks up all the sound, unfortunately. :D

What a wonderful song. Such a soothing voice as well. Very nice!

I think that the water adds to the mix, maybe like its subtlety raining or something. What's really odd is if you really listen it sounds like there's a parrot or something in the background chiming every now and again... and a car or truck that drives by somewhere in the middle - but you can only really notice it if you have headphones on and trick YouTube with that "&fmt=18" trick for the HQ stereo feed.
