Thanks Beth! I figured that the story lyrics required me to hold back on the music so as not to distract. For me - normally - the music is the interesting part of songwriting - but for this one, I had to give the music the back seat, although I couldn’t help putting in some acoustic lead phrases in chorus 2 - 4 for some variation.
As for my gaze, I think that’s the same one I used on our kids when they were younger. They’re now adults and 2 out of 3 are no longer home, and I do love it when they come to visit me and Alison.
