This song tells the story of a lifelong drifter who once avoided commitment but now, with age, longs for love and stability. It’s a reflective, country/folk-style ballad about changing priorities and the desire to settle down.
lyrics and melody by Harriet Barbir
Many thanks to Sebastian Stone who played all the instruments on this track and who recorded and mastered it at SKP Recording Studios
And special thanks to @jon@jonthomassings5003o gave me the wonderful lyric “if they asked me to stay, I’d draw a picture of me walking out the door.” That line just encapsulated for me a certain kind of character to incorporate into and inspire this song. Please check out his channel and enjoy his wonderful, laid back, happy hour performances from sunny California. You can also
find Jon’s great performance of the song here
