NEVER CALL YOU MINE

https://www.reverbnation.com/kaynemusic/song/34360856-never-call-you-mine


Continuing my quest for writing Standards that anyone could cover, this one is a classic smooth jazz ballad.

90% BIAB Real Tracks, with a small edition of Halion Sonic Strings Midi

This one should have been an easy no brainer, but it took a ton of work. I tried 5 different groove versions; some were too busy, too stale, too schmaltzy, too much, etc. before settling in to this goldilocks version. I was also playing around with different bit resolutions, new plug-ins, and mixing ideas. I finally got it working ... let me know if I did !
Thanks

*******************


You rattled my imagination
cant think straight any more
You know you are all I hoped you would be
Now I see you are so much more

You have a certain inclination
and a different frame of mind
So confident and care free
I could never call you mine

Seems I've known you now for years gone by
Though we only met tonight
we danced we laughed and said goodbye
I could never call you mine

Im feeling new sensations Something I cant define
All within a moment or two
That count the passage of time

You caused a brief infatuation
cant get you off my mind
you are more than a passing fancy
but I could never call you mine
