Hi! I'm a guitarist, singer and songwriter currently living in Fredericton, N.B., Canada. I've been performing music in one way or another since the mid '60's, starting out singing tenor in a barbershop quartet with my brothers and then into a progression of bands playing rock, jazz, blues and country and... whatever. It's been a fun ride so far and I'm still as exited about it as the day I began. Ralph Atkinson

Story behind the song
I had this song nearly finished except for lyrics and vocals, so Matt was kind enough to help me finish it up.
Lyrics
Well thereis times I canit sink much lower She'll make a smile out of my frown And I'll always be a dreamer Yet she keeps my feet on the ground For some unknown reason There's something she sees in me She believes in me I don't worry how it might upset her Many nights I stay out too late And I always expect her to be there Though I know I'm tempting fate I surely wonder Why in the world she understands The best she can And I guess I'm just lucky That I'm not lonely And love isn't only for the wise I've never been Casanova Or Romeo in the night And I've never been mistaken For the image of Mr. Right I'll never be that kind of guy Or see the mystery that is the reason why You're mine Guess I'm just lucky That I'm not lonely And love is not only for the wise
