LC 01 Wreck
slow folk ballad
romantic
love song
Story behind the song
Steve left the words but no chords/melody. I matched it, with a bit of tweaking (50/50ish), to one of his musical noodles. It's a beautiful romantic lyric so I tried to match that feel
Lyrics
LC 01 Wreck
If I was a gambler, Id always play to lose
Sometimes when Im starving Im just hungry for some news
If I was a sailor Id say prayers for the sea
But baby Im an island come and wreck your ship on me
If I was a hero I could save you from your mind
If I was a pleasure-seeker I would take what I could find
If I was a jailor I would throw away the key
But baby Im an island come and wreck your ship on me
I have blue waters and green fields
I have trees and sun and birds
I would say how much I need you
But I just dont have the words
I have food and I have shelter
And a fires roaring flame
But when youre not beside me
My islands wracked with pain
wracked with pain
If I was a writer Id tell stories to the sun
If I was a soldier I would hang up all my guns
If I was a jailor I would set all people free
But baby Im an island come and wreck your ship on me
But baby Im an island come and wreck your ship on me
