Description

This is the timeless story, that I would re-live many times during my younger years, of a boy in love but lacking the courage, fortitude to let the girl know how he feels.

Bio

I have always enjoyed music and finally in my 50s I have taken steps to put my words and music into the universe. I find it a very personal thing to record one’s thoughts, emotions and put it out for feedback, critique, judgement, but I have found the process so cathartic and uplifting. I have released 5 pieces of music so far – 4 instrumental pieces and 1 with lyrics. All have been written, played, recorded, mixed and mastered by me at home. I have a page on Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and other platforms. Cheers to all you musicians, singers, writers and listeners out there :) Robs Music

Lyrics

Come on shock me Blue
Hold me close to you
in all the things we do
stick to me like glue.

And I’ll always treat you right
dream of you at night
just fly me like a kite
from dawn to dusk and candle light.

Press me with those lips.
From your neck down to your hips
I’ll follow your peaks and dips
from the whorls of my finger tips

We’ll prune up in the bath
cry and sulk and laugh
Break troubles in to half
Blue, you punt my raft.

You’re my anchor and you stay me
drive each other crazy
spend our days lazy
between sheets making baby.

So come on shock me Blue
I’m so in love with you
There’s nothing that I won’t do
For us to see this through.

But there’s just a little twist
a minor thing I missed
No matter how I insist
outside my head, to you, I just don’t exist.
