Just thinking today- have all the classic love songs been written already- as a composer/lyricist where do you go, especially if you like the older style of words and music?

I like a song that sounds good with just a guitar or piano accompanying. Is this good? Maybe yes, maybe no, but fun all the same, and a cool drain off for my emotion.

Still, this is a freebie number, attrib only, have fun.

vocal plus guide guitar included.

I’ve included an electric version and instrumental, the vocal line on that has some cool harmonies.

lyrics

i remember long ago
when i walked out on you
and said
we’ll never get together
always wasn’t meant forever

but turning it round made a man of me
twice the man i used to be

our love is for the long haul
are souls intertwined
on the roads of reality
the flame still burns
and the world still turns
true love is a specialty

walking out the cowards way
it takes commitment
for love to stay
you take your vows
for rich or poor
through life and death
and peace and war
but I’m coming back on bended knee
to stay for all eternity
