Ballad of Hwy 1

Big Sur can be lonely....
lyrics

How'd you manage to drift to this quite coast of california
I thought you never knew the way
Did you hear people talking about us
I guess things do seem the same

I'm not drifting I'm nearly passing,slowly by
only one road leads to you
I never heard a whisper, I have a question
are two years to long for you

well look around isn't this place so lonesome
everyones names can be written on my hand
Memories hurt but they're peaceful, and I
love knowing I was once in love

please the question still sits unanswered
I left scared but I'm back again
Show you I won't run from your ocean
please leave my regrets in the sand

These trees and forests are the silence
that never change on me
I can breath and dream in their sunlight
things are better can't you see?

I never knew what I was saying
but now I'm hearing my words
tell me to stay and I'll never leave you
I'd hate to give up and let you go

Look at this ocean it seems so warm
but its cold to your skin
I've tried so many times to trick myself
into believing, it will be warmer once I'm in

The scribbled note you left me
well its taped to my door
sayin' "I don't want to loose you, but you can't be,
the end of my road."

How'd you manage to drift to this quite coast of california
I thought you'd forget your way
were people talking about us
I guess things do seem that way,yes they seem the same

1. You've got a great voice

2. If you got a better mic you'd sound much better

3. You're gorgeous

@sovereignsjust I have one but it seems when I use it it doesn't really work well, idk.

do you know any good micro phones??

Excellent! ~ I love the emotion you put into your performance!

I saw a comment you left on Eliza's channel ... and you said you were a Dylan fan, so, I thought I'd come see who you were. Glad it did! -  Tom

Try something from CAD or Sure. They're both cheap and sound pretty decent. :]
