My final FAWM 2022 Song. 1 more than I've ever done. I always think I'm gonna do 14 no problem lol!
If you only knew
How hard that I’ve tried
What I’ve had to do
All that I’ve been through
The tears that I’ve cried
All over you
I’ve been working Twenty-four seven, under any weather, keeping it together, never saying never
Standing on my mark, shooting in the dark, looking for the spark, Twenty-four seven for you
I’ve been working Twenty-four seven for you
I knew it from the start
It would never be an easy thing
To win your heart
I put the horse before the cart
I’m paying the price
I guess I’m just not very smart
I’ve been working Twenty-four seven, under any weather, keeping it together, never saying never
Standing on my mark, shooting in the dark, looking for the spark, Twenty-four seven for you
I’ve been working Twenty-four seven for you
I’ve been waiting such a long time
For you to show me some kind of sign
So I’m still working Twenty four seven, under any weather, keeping it together, never saying never,
Standing on my mark, shooting in the dark, looking for the spark, Twenty-four seven for you
I am working Twenty-four seven for you
won’t you give me some credit
I am working Twenty-four seven for you
won’t you give me some credit

The single rhyme in the verses works so well—it really makes them go in and stick, and it's also very comforting, as we start anticipating what's going to happen. Goodness knows, we need all the comfort we can get these days...
And hey, seven songs is still a very decent showing, particularly when you've ended up with a gem like this one. For the first two years I did FAWM I ended up with a grand total of one posted song, and it was *awful*.
