Hi, friends !

I wrote this tune a long time ago

It is a jazzy tune with a small solo
played on my fender !:))

Written in BIAB, mixed with Mixcraft 8,
compression and reverb used sparsely

The Style used is _SJCOOLG.STY (Smooth Jazz Cool Swsw 16)
and the instros are:

Bass:902, Piano:1995,Drums: Realdrums Smoot Jazz Cool,
Guitar 1: 1228, Daniettes: 3063 Vocal AAhs

...and here are the lyrics:

It´s Only Just A Dream (Words & Music by Norman Wibe)

When day turns into night, babe
and you´re not here beside me, dear
I´ll dream that I can feel you there
beneath my quilt, so light
I can hear your breathin´,almost quitely
it lessens my anxiety

´cause I know you, I feel your scent so sweet
and I love you, just more by every beat,
beat of my heart, that is the part
that is struck by Love´s own dart. Oh, babe !!!

I´ll turn around t´wards you, babe
I wanna hug you so sweetly dear
I wanna feel you close and near
and that is what I´ll do
caressin´ you so quitely, gently,
lovin´ you so dearly, dear

cause I know you, I feel your scent so sweet
and I love you, just more by every beat,
beat of my heart, that is the part
that is struck by Love´s own dart. Oh, babe !!!

Solo

You kiss me cutely in my sleep, bahe
I can feel the moist right on my lip
I can touch your tongue with my own tip
and I know I´m in it deep
you turn me on, my darlin, spiritually
though it´s only just virtually

cause I know you, I feel your scent so sweet
and I love you, just more by every beat,
beat of my heart, that is the part
that is struck by Love´s own dart. Oh, babe !!!

It´s only just a dream
You know I´m in it deep
You know I´m deep in sleep
It´s only just a dream
You know I´m in it deep
You know I´m deep in sleep,
sleep

Cheers
Dani

+1! My thoughts exactly.

Another quality delivery from Dani. This is just so nice. What a great choice of style and perfect arrangement. You always deliver something a little bit exceptional.

Very lovely romantic soul song. Your excellent band is sweet to my ears, your voice is the cherry on the cake and Daniettes tasty peppermint cream, lovely solo with very interesting chords. To be enjoyed on a beautiful summer night smile Definitely one of your best songs!

Yes! That jazz sound is very nice with the smooth vocal.

And a swing feel is ALWAYS good for us.

"It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!"

Great vocal and a fine mix too.

Enjoyed it!

Hello, Dani

Really nice chord progression!
The melody on the top is also wonderful.
The modulations are very pleasant.
As Torrey said, your vocal sounds better than ever!
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

As I have said many times before, I really enjoy your chord progressions. Now this time you surprised me with a well placed solo. The notes you chose were perfect. Your vocal sounds great and this is another outstanding Dani love song, Tom

Really nice job on this smile The groove is fantastic, and your vocals compliment the jazzy vibes perfectly. Plus - as someone else mentioned, the chords selection here is very unique. The whole experience is just really nice on the ears.

Great work and thanks for sharing!

Good song! Very smooth sound and laid back groove. Vocals sound good, just the right amount of reverb.

Very tasteful, melodic guitar solo too! I'm also a Fender guy. I own four of them, the oldest is a '74 strat and I'm the original owner.

Good stuff, enjoyed the listen!

This is such an easy-on-the-ears listen and the smooth jazz backing is a perfect fit for the song and your singing. Yet another song that can sit proudly in amongst all your other fine compositions.

All the best,
Noel

How nice that you enjoyed
