Lyrics: For Me © J Hughes

Flying dragons may not fly
Weeping willows may not cry
Fairy tales may not pull through
But this one thing I know is true
Cause when I see you standing there
Breezes dancing in your hair
I know you will always care
And be there for me

For me for me
For me for me
I know you will always care
And be there for me
For me for me
For me for me
I know you will always care
And be there for me
For me

********* More info*********

This song was originally conceived as a duet but the female vocalist was a no show

Jim,

Very nice vocal! Cool chorus...

Bob

"Flying dragons may not fly
Weeping willows may not cry"

Well, that will certainly grab you right from the get-go. Very nice.

Short and compact but it delivers a wonderful sentiment.

We enjoyed this!!

J&B

Nice effects on those vocals Jim! Definitely well timed lyrics for Valentines. Looking forward to hear more!

Jim

Very nice arrangement and pretty use of Pachelbels chords.

Peter

Thanks, Bob, for your kind comments.

Thanks for your kind comments...
As I said, this song has a 2nd but it was designed to be a duet...
Her verse would go something like this...

Unicorns may be just myths
Hershey kisses never kiss
Santa never had a list
But this one thing I know exists
Cause when I feel you lying there
Gently playing with my hair
I know you will always care
And be there for me

Thanks, Joe, for your encouraging comments.

Thanks, Peter, for your comments!
If I remember correctly, that was the FAWM prompt of the week...
To me, those specific prompts is what makes FAWM a great challenge for anyone...
At least they are challenging to me & I enjoy them.

I love the lyrics and the second verse you later posted. Man! Too bad the female singer was a no show. The harpsichord(?) was an excellent choice in your production. I hope you add the second verse in the near future.

Enjoyed the listen, Jim.

I like the "For me" repetition in the chorus... a good technique that few people ever use in their writing...

Okay, the bit about the dragons right off the top really sucked me in to the song. Thanks for sharing!

Jim,

I love this sound!!! It's fantastic. To my ears, there are shades of the France on this arrangement. It really appealed to me.

All the best with FAWM.... I admire all who take part. I think it's an incredible effort.

Best regards,
Noel

Jim,
this is one of the best of yours from what I heard. It is a shame that vocalist was a no show, but you laid the path very nicely. Should be a breeze to sing female part if you find a volunteer, if not, it is great as it is!

Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

I was going to say it reminded me of Pachelbel, then I read the other comments

Good song, Jim, I enjoyed the listen!

Dear Jim,

very nice li'l thing with lovely effects. Beautifully arranged and well-sung. Enjoyed it.

Cheers,

Stefan

Hello, Jim

Nice Valentine song!
I think that the chord progression of Pachelbel's canon is the progression which is easy to make a duet song.
I also think this tune will be more lovely if it is sung with the female vocalist.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

This is great Jim!

it really elevates when the singing in the round chorus/verse part comes in

I would like to hear it as a duet with the missing verse added

strong writing and good recording

Kenny

Jim, I knew I recognized the chord progression, then I read the comments. Good lyrics and a nice chorus. You should repost it after you get the second verse. Nicely done, Tom

Thanks, Scott, for listening & commenting...
I really appreciate it!

Thanks, Floyd, for listening & commenting... I really appreciate it!
I believe the good Lord really did give me a good idea for that chorus part...

I happy it got you attention...
Thank you for your support & comments!

Thanks Noel, for listening, commenting, wishing me "the best" at FAWM...
Your support is really appreciated!

Excellent throughout Jim.

Jim, the chorus in this little tune is so catchy! Great job on the vocals and video! Thanks, Torrey

Lovely tune Jim. Super vocal and lyric. Loved the way you overlaid on vocal on the other.

Hi Jim, Great valentines day song. I love a lot of the lines you have they are so magical and filled with contrasts, very interesting. Good job!!

Jim, I really like this. It sounds like something Peter, Paul and Mary would have had a field day with. The harmonies were perfect for this.
Wonderful!

Thanks, Misha, I appreciate your comments, compliments, & support.

Thanks, Dave, I happy you liked it.

Thanks, Stefan...
It is not as lush as your productions but I glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks, Shigeki, for your listen...
I totally agree with your assessments!

Very nice Jim (2nd verse too). Enjoyed the counterpoint in the chorus from the 'Jim' choir.

+1! I really enjoyed it Jim.

Thanks, Kenny, for you kind comments & support!

Thanks, Tom... I appreciate your comments & support.

Thanks, Don... I happy you enjoyed it!

That is quite a compliment!

Thanks, Mike...
I appreciate your support.

Thanks, Josie...
I appreciate you support & comments.

Oh wow! I liked this a lot! The Pachebel harmonies are excellently used, the sound texture is wonderful and really pleasant to the ear - and I liked how you made a canon, of all things, in the last verse ... surely a tribute to Pachebel. Beautiful song, perfect for Valentine's Day.

Thanks, James... For your wonderful comments...
I happy you enjoyed it.
