about

is it just me who finds decision making really hard? I don't think so.... I had just learned to play the guitar part for My Funny Valentine, a song I sing in the jazz duo I'm in and really loved some of the descending chords, so wrote my own song using some of these chords to try to incorporate some more skilled playing in my repertoire. There is also a more profound level to this song, as I'd had a sudden realisation that we often hide our feelings towards our nearest and dearest, so only react superficially much of the time instead of connecting with deeper feelings.

lyrics

should have told you what was in my heart
instead of what was on my tongue
should have said it from the very start
now it's a song, unsung

it's really strange how we can only make changes when we understand what's gone before
but in that moment, that fleeting moment
we usually do what we've been programmed for

choices that we make
turnings that we take
choices
choices

if you make a mistake it might not be too late to choose a different path
oh I've got this feeling, I need to believe it doesn't have to be this way

it's oh so strange how we only change when we understand what's gone before
but in that fleeting moment
we usually do what we've been programmed for

choices etc

it can be so hard, it can be so hard to choose, it can be hard to choose
do you believe it? So hard to choose
