Me singing and playing guitar : I've Been Wondering (a song for a war widow) original song

Me singing and playing guitar on my new song. Lots of war widows from the genocide in the 90's still have not been able to bury their loved ones after their bodies were never found, this song is my attempt to describe that from their perspective, i in no way claim to know what these ladies have been through & i hope they don't find this patronising. I wrote this in August when i was laid up in bed after a car crash....i think i must have got to thinking about those worse off !

You can sponsor a widow for £15 per month through Smile:

Hope you enjoy listening :)

Lyrics:
Sometimes at night, I weep for you
I hold myself, i pretend it's you
And in the morn, Ill walk for news
Id walk for miles, for news of you.

At three this morn, our son was born
He has your eyes, theyre just like yours
Of all the starts, Id hoped for more
Of how Ill cope, I am unsure.

Thirteen years on, and still youre gone
I pray one day theyll bring you home
And Ill take your son to where you lye
Hope you did not suffer, my darling one

CHORUS
I've been wondering if well ever get out of here x 4
last time: Ive been wondering if well ever get out

Ooooo, Oooooo

Repeat chorus

@TheDream123451 thank you. don't like watching it myself. have a good weekend and cheers for sub (think it was you who subbed)

where did you get your mic and whats it called? please respond :) and i really liked it

[EmmaB979]

@spreaditwide13 hi thanks for that. Its not my mic unfortunately but it is a mic with a separate device attached which is meant to reduce popping sounds I think. You should be able to get a good mic and that device from any good music shop or just search online for one, or if you search for "fizzy records" on you tube you can ask the chap Danny who owns the mic and also listen to his music that he writes too...hope this helps

I listen to this song everyday. For real. Heavy rotation in my car.I love this video as well.

[kimbalcross]

An amazing voice. Really nice work. As with most great music, the guitar is simple but highly effective.
