I started all the verses with "Well" cause she makes me feel well.
this song is about the sweetest potatah
The sunrise'll wait behind a cloud for just a minute so the two of us can see.
Cause it's lookin' back at us as we're standing by the river
close together so we don't freeze.
Someday I'll Take You Back to Barcelona
someday I'll take you back to the sea
and I'd like to list off all the things about the ways I'll love you but you know this song is not about me.
Well the world looks like a complex and a beautiful adventure through those giant yellow eyes
that are always leakin water on the herbs and on the flowers and they add salt to your pies
Someday I'll Take You Back to Barcelona
someday I'll take you back to the sea
and I'd like to list off all the things about the ways I'll love you but you know this song is not about me.
Well I've never met a giant who was shorter than a mailbox til the day I met you babe
it's a privilege to watch you and see all the ways you're growing an the very last fux you gave.
[REFRAIN]
I'm so sure that you can do
any damn thing you set your mind to baby,
you can make a friend of anyone.
Any what and any where and any flower in your hair my baby...in your startlingly soft hair
Well you're squintin up your eyes
and you turn pink as the skies
cause you laugh from the bottom of your heart
and you understand aesthetics to a frightening degree and make life a work of art
Well ya scare me quite a lot cause I can't comprehend a future where you're not here every day.
Someday we'll hop on a plane and fly into the sunrise and whatever happens after that we'll figure out together
Someday I'll Take You Back to Barcelona
someday I'll take you back to the sea
and I'd like to list off all the things about the ways I'll love you but you know this song is not about me.
Someday I'll Take You Back to Barcelona

Super love song full of telling detail.
Nice picking and strumming too!
If you ever do come back to Barcelona, look me up :)

I don't normally put Barcelona and the banjo together but it works. Good chord progression- I like the variation in the strumming too!

I'm beaming with the joy of the love in this. The banjo is excellently played and puts me in mind of my old man who used to play (not quite as well as this though). I love the refrain- the melody is sweet af. And I adore Barcelona too- many happy memories there. This song ticks all my boxes. Thank you for this huge uplift right at the start of my day.
