A simple little song.
She's been around the world
In a fortnight and a day
Airports and hotel lobbies
And another show to play
She's a mother in the making
She leads a double life
Too wilful and too headstrong
To be somebody's wife
Better carry that load
Carry that load with care
As you carry that load on the road

Some great chords here. Very nice. A little character study in only 11 lines. Feels like someone you might have plucked out of your own life.

Love that picking intro. I love how it really give no clue as to the melody - so that was a nice surprise. I really like the sparse lyrics and the space in between - letting us digest what you have sung and also a chance to hear that gorgeous guitar. Really well done!

This his just wonderful. Vulnerable in the presentation and in the playing and a beautiful story. I've met a couple of women who would easily recognize themselves here.
Great work Thomas.
Peace

A great addition to the "artist on the road" genre. I love your voice on this. Nice picking too!
