I know it's a new year, Happy New Year!, but I've been spending a fair amount of time in the past remixing the few songs I've previously shared, like this one, and releasing them on streaming platforms. Some of you will have heard this before. Truth be told, the situation hasn't changed, I still struggle to write songs. Far below I'll include the link to my OP from way back in 2014, should you be interested in that.

Thanks for the spins and any feedback.

Song Somewhere

By Scott H. Olson
Copyright © 2002

I SAT DOWN THIS MORNING
WITH A PENCIL NICE AND SHARP
AND A CLEAN WHITE PIECE OF PAPER
NOW IT’S GETTING DARK

I TRIED EVERY CHORD
I SANG EVERY NOTE
AND I FILLED THE WASTE BASKET
WITH ALL THE TRASH I WROTE

Chorus

THERE’S A SONG AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE
SOMEWHERE I HAVEN’T LOOKED
IT MIGHT BE IN THE KITCHEN
WITH THE SUPPER I WAS S’POSED TO COOK
IN A SHOE BOX BURIED IN THE CLOSET
AMONG THE LETTERS KEPT IN THERE
I’LL JUST KEEP ON SEARCHING
‘TIL I FIND THAT SONG SOMEWHERE

WELL I’VE BEEN A COUPLE PLACES
AND I’VE DONE A COUPLE THINGS
AND I’VE TOLD A COUPLE STORIES
WITH THESE GUITAR STRINGS

YOU WOULD THINK SHOULD BE EASY
JUST TO TELL ONE MORE
SOMETIMES I GOT A WONDER
WHAT I DO THIS FOR

Repeat Chorus
