Songwriting is a very curious thing. Each time I finish a song I’m amazed, relieved and secretly scared that I’ll never be able to do it again.
Some songs are like a gift that I unwrap and there is the song. That’s all the effort it takes.
Some songs are like a massive lump of rock which I’ve had to carve the song out of, very carefully, making sure not to ruin it.
This song came the hard way. It was a bit of a fight at times, but I think it was worth the effort.
This year I’m aiming to write and record a song a month. This is March’s effort. (The video needed some April time.)

This is a beautiful sang and I love it. Mournful and haunting-my 2 favourite adjectives. I love this blog. Why didn’t you show me earlier?
keep up the singing it is lovely. xx
Gosh I’m just in awe of people who write there own music – very beautiful!
Hi Naomi – I have come to you via Our Creative Spaces as I was so delighted to find you adding music into what it otherwise a crafty oriented creative space each week.
What a hauntingly beautiful song – and your voice has a lovely timbre (sorry if I have used a totally wrong term there, but I hope you know what I mean).
I also am encouraged by your ethos “Creativity is the Creator’s will for me” – what a simple but effective phrase around which to create an abundant life. xo
Timbre is totally the right term! Very impressed 😉
the song is gorgeous of course and I know there are many more in there to come!
Beautiful. Are you the pianist? Or is loverman?
That’s Alex’s skill there. He wrote the music and played all the instruments. I’m responsible for the melody and lyrics and some creative suggestions along the way!
Absolutely beautiful – both your words and your voice. Such a treat. x
This is a wonderful song, both the lyrics and your voice are hauntingly beautiful. I’m glad I found you on Our Creative Spaces 🙂
This is so lovely, sweet, and yes haunting.
