Friends Forever Come What May
Robert Baitinger, a songwriter from Germany
For songwriters who dont sing or perform it is extremely hard to make ones mark in the music business because they dont have a platform to present and promote their work. This is more or less the situation that I, Robert Baitinger, a songwriter from Germany, have been confronted with since I started writing songs in 1978.
My idea is to complement my songwriting capabilities with the "helping hands" of excellent artists, musicians and innovative producers. In the age of the internet it has become easier to communicate and collaborate with musicians and producers all over the world. I am utilizing the internet and pursuing the idea of a conceptual studio band with a frequently changing lineup of artists. I call this project the "Rob B. Project" since I supply the melodies and/or lyrics of a song and other musicians/producers/songwriters contribute their talents and skills to make it come to life.
Story behind the song
This is a birthday song for my good friend Mario. I hope you like it.
Lyrics
Friends Forever Come What May
[Verse]
From Bucharest to New York's lights
Driving VIPs through the nights
Now in Cape Coral by the sea
Mario, you're where you're meant to be
[Pre-chorus]
With a heart so big, a soul so true
A friend like you, there are so few
Cooking with love, laughter in the air
Mario, we're blessed you're here!
[Chorus]
Happy Birthday, Mario, cheers to you!
With Irina by your side, love so true
Toby's tail is wagging, friends all say
We're so lucky to know you today!
Friends forever, come what may!
[Verse]
A man of kindness, joy and grace
Bringing light to every place
A friend so loyal, always near
Mario, we all hold you dear!
[Pre-chorus]
With a heart so big, a soul so true
A friend like you, there are so few
Cooking with love, laughter in the air
Mario, we're blessed you're here!
[Chorus]
Happy Birthday, Mario, cheers to you!
With Irina by your side, love so true
Toby's tail is wagging, friends all say
We're so lucky to know you today!
Friends forever, come what may!
[Bridge]
Through the years, through the miles
You've brought us joy, you've sparked our smiles
Paths have crossed, and friends we stay
Forevermore, come what may!
[Chorus]
Happy Birthday, Mario, cheers to you!
With Irina by your side, love so true
Toby's tail is wagging, friends all say
We're so lucky to know you today!
Friends forever, come what may!
[Outro]
We're so lucky to know you today
Friends forever, come what may
Friends forever, come what may
