Feb 2022 ss020422b skirmish superskirmish
a very quick 30 minute skirmish
I wish that things were different
I want the world to know
I want things moving fast
I cant stand this being slow
I want things in the open
Share you with my friends
Ill do whatever it takes
The means will meet the ends
But
Its just another seret rendevous
A hidden meeting
Just a a nod a smile
Not the ususal greeting
But I want to hold you tight
I pray to up above
I want kiss you
Show you all my love
I cant stand the secrecy
Want everyone to know
I want to take you everywhere
So many places to go
But we keep this hidden
the truth cant come out
And as you leave each evening
I sit her full of doubt
But
Its just another seret rendevous
A hidden meeting
Just a a nod a smile
Not the ususal greeting
But I want to hold you tight
I pray to up above
I want kiss you
Show you all my love

Oh man, this one hits home. I've been in a relationship like that. It's heartbreaking. And you kind of always know that it's never going to change, because things are always more convenient as they are...
This is powerful writing, and to produce it under the time constraints of a skirmish is pretty mind-blowing.
@sheslin Mar 2022
Oh I really like this - stripped down with just that very warm guitar and your deep gentle vocals. Very sweet melody and lyrics. Pretty amazing to write and record a full song in 30 minutes! Well done! #tit4tat

I found the lyrics to be heartbreaking - no one ever wants to be hidden, no matter the circumstances. The guitar is mellow and sweet. It‘s a pleasant take on a sad situation. Nice work!

A song to dance to, two by two, gentely and tihgtly embaced. In France we call... "un slow" ! I heard a quiet bass playing and a very light drum, but I might have imagined it.
Sad but sweet.

Well done heartfelt and meaningful lyric mate. Great job on the skirmish!
@wobbiewobbit Feb 2022
aw sweet song, i like the secret rendezvous melody. now who's the big softie? ;)
@jwhanberry Feb 2022
Fresh take on the "Just Walk On By" situation. Well produced as usual. Good to hear you.
Thanks for coming out to play.
@cabinmonster Feb 2022
Awwwh. Sad and sweet. There's vulnerability mixed in there too. A lovely song. Wow - 30 mins. Great achievement!
@kahlo2013 Feb 2022
A this has all of the desire and sadness of a secret rendezvous - the joy of passion and love is hard to celebrate when it needs to stay hidden and the reasons it needs to stay so… your tender vocals convey that angst well
@kenmattsson Feb 2022
A breezy summer time song, I get the feeling that the singer and the one being sung too have a mature relationship, where there're no questions but a head nod confirms things. Very sweet.
@melaniepegge Feb 2022
I love the feel of this, the pace and the yearning... you remind me of the magnetic fields which is a very good thing indeed.
@zeekle1998 Feb 2022
You ole romantic fool... what a lovely vibe this has, old style slow dance and the end of the night kind of song. Very sweet lyrics
@pianoquest Feb 2022
I second @mariekevinkmusic -- I also thought of Roy Orbison. Really good melody and well crafted lyrics.
@nancyrost Feb 2022
Ah, a furtive lovers' meeting set to a 1950s slow dance! I like where you took this, and it's a very sweet listen. Nice work for 30 minutes especially.
@andygriff Feb 2022
Well done fella. There's a yearning sadness about this one that is very affecting.
@mariekevinkmusic Feb 2022
I can hear Roy Orbison sing this. It has a really nice crooner feel to it. Not bad for 30 minutes work :-)
@mandolinda Feb 2022
These are the times aren’t they? Your song lyrics could be interpreted many ways. Great skirmish to get this in 30 minutes.
@ajna1960 Feb 2022
Such a beautiful sounding guitar :)
The song has such a sad feeling to it. Not the usual excitement associated with secret/illicit affairs etc. I think the reflects the true reality behind such relationships.
Well crafted putting lyrics, vocals and melody together to make such a well melded whole.
