Cowrite with OhLeeOh - He had just visited a Dr and the theme/title was suggested by a girl in the office.
More Than One Woman
Lee Birt, Nathan Spears FAWM 2-02-22
I picked my grandma’s glasses out of the old wooden box,
Thought about her life, and her blue-collar job.
How hard she worked for Fifty-two dollars a week,
Somehow, she managed to make all ends meet.
Chorus:
There is more than one woman in my life,
I wish to thank them all, especially my wife.
I wake up grateful every day,
For every girl that ever sent a smile my way.
Bridge:
Love can move the tides,
Calm the stormy seas,
But it’s the sparkle in my woman’s eyes
That means the world to me.
I was sitting in a science class, when I saw my future wife,
Twenty-two and beautiful, I had to have her in my life.
Everything was a blur like a camera in portrait mode,
When she smiled at me, I felt my heart explode.
Chorus:
Instrumental (of verse and bridge)
The delivery room monitors seemed to make the tension mount.
Till finally I heard a cry and I let my breath out.
A new woman in my world so precious and so frail,
To this fathers’ ears it was the voice of a nightingale.
Chorus: (tag last two lines and end)

I really enjoyed that.

A very kind and loving song. I can't help but enjoy the "portrait mode" line.

Great job! To think that all this came from me asking for a suggestion at an appointment with a hearing specialist.

Wow! With title i was expecting something different. But this is a lovely tribute to the women in your life. Good job!
