Light acoustic rock folk

I play guitar and sing against backings that I have created using various software tools. I am therefore a home recorder primarily concerned with minting decent recordings of my own songs rather than a performer.

Story behind the song

I originally wrote this song as a straight "luurve" song complete with smooshy synth's and gentle acoustics. Once finished however I decided that I had created a piece of "lift music" and sought to do something about it. So with a few tweaks to the lyrics it reveals itself in the last lines only to be not what you expected. Anyway 'nuff said, you must listen and wait patiently for the ending.

Lyrics

I’m gonna say this my way
So you know it’s true
As we stumble on life’s highway
You’re gonna see us through

I’m gonna feel this always
Even when we’re blue
There will always be a byway
I can find with you

You’re gonna be there always
You’re gonna take good care
Through the maze of bad ways
You’re gonna get us there

What can I say of this deed
That won’t sound insincere
Well simply that when you lead
The whole world seems so clear

My wife is gonna cry now
Cos what I say is true
It doesn’t matter what we did vow
She can’t live up to you

But there’s gonna be a day when
Our journey is all through
A day of reckoning for all men
When I can speak for you

What will I say about you
That won’t sound insincere
Well simply that I loved you
And always kept you near

Oh yes my lovely Sat-Nav 
I fear the end is here
