After spending a wasted youth performing in bands and as a solo artist, I'm currently only interested in songwriting and recording. OK, if you get me a little tipsy, or there's some money waved before my eyes, maybe my iron resolve will waver ... I'm only human, y'know?

Story behind the song
I was experimenting with rhyming -- trying to challenge myself. It's amazing what people get away with in making rhymes. Overall, I don't think I did too bad -- especially for a teen-ager.
Lyrics
Well, she creeps in like the darkness, Wraps herself around your mind. She knows just what you're thinking, And she knows just what she'll find. And if it takes forever, She will try to make you see, She's a woman of perfect empathy. It doesn't really matter How you're feeling at the time. She acts and reacts with you, With a silent, subtle mind. She can share your pain and sorrow, And show you sympathy. She's a woman of perfect empathy. It just goes without saying, As does everything with her, That there are some emotions That can't be expressed in words. It doesn't take a single word And she will understand. She knows just what you're thinking Just by reaching for your hand. And if it lasts forever, That's all right with me. She's a woman of perfect empathy.
