๐ŸŽถ Steemit Open Mic week 70 - Original Song "What if?"

in openmic โ€ขย  7 years agoย  (edited)

So very happy that I was able to enter Week 70 Open Mic with an original song of mine "What If?

You never know
When to say yes
When everything happens at the wrong time
You think you're making the right choice
And then you realise you made a mistake

What if I'd had said yes then?
And what if I'd accepted him?

You are everything I've ever wanted yeah
I'm going crazy for you and you don't even know
I should have loved you when you said you loved me

I'm falling for you and I'm crawling for you
And you just sit there and stare at me
I'm waiting for you. I'm changing for you

  • I have have been kept so busy since leaving London and the first opportunity I had a little bit of free downtime I rushed off to find a guitar shop in Las Vegas

And here is the beauty - a most gorgeous little instrument for travelling. Oh, what a lifesaver


A baby Taylor

My daughter has GOT to see this. I've been encouraging her to come out of her room and share her talent. Musicians like you are a great encouragement to others. Great work. Upvote and follow to the moon!

Thank you @Luzcypher always great to have a positive comment from you

Beautiful, such a great song. Would be a perfect song for like a teeny-bopper pop band, and that's a huge compliment... making pop-rock ballads that can really cross that divide is a lot harder than people think.

As always, would love to see you with a band, so great. Keep up the great work!

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Thanks @jamesgetsit - I have played with a band many times

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Gotta post some of that if you have any recordings of it, so dope!
