Wrote this lyric about 30 years ago (when I was a younger, if not bitter man)... just dug it out of the notebook for some music.
Yesterday I was a bitter man
Most of my friends were bitter, too
I’d have bet I knew what bitter was
Until I met you… Until I met you
All the love I see is in black and white
But what you’ve shown me is black and blue
I’d have bet that love was color blind
Until I met you… Until I met you
So what have you got to say for yourself?
And where will the pieces fall?
I’m just broken bits upon your shelf
But you don’t see it…
You don’t see it…
You don’t see it that way at all!

And where will the pieces fall?
We’re just broken bits upon your shelf
But you don’t see it…
You don’t see it…
You don’t see it that way at all!
Yesterday I was a bitter man
Most of my friends were bitter, too
I’d have bet I knew what bitter was
Until I met you… Until I met you

Really nice tune!

Love it, sounds great.
Very country but would also work with an Eagles style country rock arrangement.

Really nice track, getting a Glenn Frey-esque vibe. Solid lyric, definitely deserved to be brought to life finally! Good one...

What a great concept in the lyrics. The music also has a really nice feel to it. Really enjoyed this.

Hearing a Marshal Crenshaw vibe maybe? It really works.

I love collaborating with my younger self, too. The "black ad blue: verse was my favorite lyric. Nice lead guitar too.
