It's a pleasant sounding song, Phil. I like the uncomplicated tracks.

I can empathise with some of your lines although there are a couple that could be reworked (Isn't that always the case though for all of us).
E.G: "Staring at the bottom of the glass" has been used in a few songs and being a first line stands out more than if it were a second or third line.

The second verse, "I can hear the calling of the sea." Why is that if it's a song about making music?
The line comes over as a distraction to what you really want to do.

As I said, it's a pleasant sounding song but lyric wise it lacks purpose.

I hope you don't take my thoughts the wrong way.
I'm just trying to help and I haven't written a perfect song yet so what do I know? confused
