[@ChrisCampbellSongs]

The fact that there are people like you who appreciate it is enough for me! Thanks for the kind words, means a lot.

[@sirTANKhunter]

Beautiful cover, just found it. Much respect folks, hope you're out there somewhere, still making music somehow.

[@saumyasharma7436]

She lifts her skirt up to her knees Walks through the garden rows With her bare feet laughing I never learned to count my blessings I choose instead to dwell In my disasters I walk on down the hill Through grass grown tall And brown and still It's hard somehow To let go of my pain On past the busted back Of that old and rusted Cadillac That sinks into this field Collecting rain Will I always feel this way So empty So estranged? And of these cut throat busted sunsets These cold and damp white mornings I have grown weary If through my cracked and dusty Dime store lips I spoke these words out loud Would no one hear me? Lay your blouse across the chair Let fall the flowers From your hair And kiss me With that country mouth So plain Outside the rain is tapping On the leaves To me it sounds like They're applauding us The quiet love We've made Will I always feel this way So empty So estranged? Well I looked my demons in the eyes Lay bare my chest Said do your best To destroy me See I've been to hell and back So many times I must admit You kinda bore me There's a lot of things That can kill a man There's a lot of ways To die Yes, and some already did And walk beside me There's a lot of things I don't understand Why so many people lie It's the hurt I hide that fuels The fire inside me Will I always feel this way So empty So estranged?

Good to know indian here in this room

[@chowlungborah95]

Mate we've great taste of music ☺️🎶

[@TheSamtortue]

I just went through a whole bunch of (incredibly horrible) covers of this song & finally found this so perfect one, and wonder WHY & HOW is it that it's been a year and ONLY 735 views??? o_O I don't get it, why do people watch gangnam style videos instead of talented musicians like you guys.. I don't get it.

[@anon44492]

It's hard for me to understand that after 28k views, how did it get just 700+ likes only.. maybe people just went to another dimension after listening to it..

[@lovelynothing5598]

I like that explanation, let's go with that. It's definitely a song to get lost in! If you'd like to hear things I've been working on lately, you can find me at 'Lovely Nothing' now! Instagram: @ohlovelynothing Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/4NIx5Ww7BssMYQKRoCns4F?si=Ut33iDMwTgu8os62XPu3XQ
