I liked the words they had a sing-song effect which bounced along nicely. You are right about musicians looking at the lyrics and putting them to music. If you read our the words of most songs, the reading doesn't do them as much justice as with music. Well done and good luck in the contest. :) Sandra xx

This sounds like a passionate relationship. Maybe burning to hot to last. Or maybe just to many I told you so's and not enough forgiveness and quiet.
Good luck in the contest and keep writing
Happy Holidays.

This is what singing the blues is all about. I loved the vibe and the way it flowed so smoothly across my tongue. I liked the picture as well. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

One needs to write the lyrics to make them a living masterpiece. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read. There is good imagery.

Comment from Kerry Foley
This is a fantastic song lyric entry, sure sounds like a winner. I love this verse"
"Oh, the bedframe was in splinters,
just kindling for the winters shiverin' cold;
and the mattress was on fire,
combusted by desire--
for our love flowed like
a lake of melted snow,
Really terrific, my friend:)) ~Kerry
I told ya so,

Comment from Gloria ....
This has the look of a honky tonk, bar or perhaps the Silver Dollar Country and Western dance bar, but whatever, it's good mood!
I love the matter of fact intro with the set 'em Joe just a drink and hidey ho. Sounds like the singer is singing to himself.
Oh dear it turns sad awfully fast with the bedframe in splinters. YIKES. Of course I have no idea who the author of this is, but I'm suspecting it's one of finest FanStory musicians. And I'd say you've knocked the rocks out of the drink with this little gem. Just judging by the lyrics.
Best of luck in the contest, author.

Well, there's fun recreational ways to splinter a bed frame too. But, yeah, it gets sad. LOL
Wow, you've got some great phrases in there for an old country boy to throw in the old pick-up and run off with. I may have to borrow them. Sooooo thrilled you liked this so much. I don't know where country sprung up from this rocker boy, but that's what hit me for some reason. Thanks so much. Lots of competition, but I appreciate the good luck. I'll take the stars as a win either way. :))

I think your song is good, I'm not a musician but I liked the way it flowed. It has the usual message of most country songs, loving and leaving. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Great to hear. Yep, if you liked the way it read then that's all I can ask for. Country theme for sure. Thanks a million. :))
Comment from Irish Rain
I love the 'I told you so, I told you so' and then the 'I don't know, I don't know.' So important to get the right refrains, because they carry the song, you've got them here, blessings...

Comment from RGstar
A very well done. I have tinkered with song writing, and I know this tics the boxes of a very good write with a good chorus, with the exception of "combusted" which might be too alien for a chorus, but all the same it works.
I really think this is fighting for the title.
Good luck.
My best wishes.

I found "combusted" a little odd at first, but it fits so well with the accent and all. Maybe I just got used to it. HAHAHA! Appreciate the kind words and awesome review. Thanks a million. :))
