*******************
I need to find someone to talk to.
Sit awhile and tell my problems too.

If I had a choice that one would be like you.

Not a Tuesday nor a Wednesday
I'm not one to throw my heart away.

Want to tell you what I'm going through.

I cant hold on.
As the night seems so long

Fill


Cant you listen to my pleading.
Cant you tell my heart is bleeding.

Spare some time for me to lean on you.

What's your point of view what you trying to prove.
Started small but then my problems grew.

I need some help to get you my mind

There's some pretty cool aspects to this. I like the groove of the song....and the mandolin driven aspect to this song...

The lead in the center ....was that a live recording? It was out of tune which distracted from an otherwise melodic song to that point.

I like this song.... it has a good vibe and feel to it.

I'm in agreement with everyone about the great groove of this song. I've listened several times now and this is very enjoyable to listen to. It is completely original but you managed to also make it sound familiar.

A statement about the familiar aspect of the song. The vibe I get is this would also work well as a rockabilly tune in the style of Buddy Holly. That is simply a personal observation and in no way effects that you chose a style to make the song uniquely yours.

It is a terrific song as is and I thought I would share my thoughts on how the song struck me. Thanks for posting.
