Right back where I started from

Original by Jeff Isom. No kidding, hit record cause a song was in my head, so I would remember it, and this is what happened.. I don't even know what to call it yet. I'll have to remember the words, I can get a few of them now.

Daddy always told me if at first you don't suceed
try try try try again
walk away from it and come right back again
you might be surprised what you see
that's what I did and I ended up right back where I started from

So I came to you on bended knee
I asked you what to do
you looked me in the eyes and said describe what you see
if anything at all

so let me make it clear
i'm not your puppet in your mirror
someday i'll get out of here
and go my own way

Good night, I'm going to bed...

You tend to write songs about struggling relationships, very deep and moving, kind of scary. Cat Stevens did that to. The Guitar work really really really good and the vocals pitched to the mood. ***** *****'s

@SiriuslyEz That's got to be it then, Dark, struggling, relationships. Could mean anything, this came spontaniously, from somewhere instantly that night.  Scary, because, I don't know why...

@1Jisom LOL - You know the word WHOA, don't ya! Sometimes, I use it just before a horse has the very idea of moving.

@jinglejangle1871 You see Evelin that is the problem, I can't find the off button.. I don't think it is even there to push..

[jinglejangle1871]

@jinglejangle1871 I've already had my lifetime bout with the tequila sunrises, I got tired of all the black eyes, and seeing things that were not real.. He he..
