Description:
This song is part of the FAWM.org challenge - 14 songs in 28 days!
This is a strange tune for me! But I'll take it... especially since I'm way behind. I had some ideas for the arrangement - mainly guitar riffs - but I'm not very skilled on the guitar and it was taking me too long to figure the riffs out. My wife kindly reminded me that FAWM is not about the arrangements so I dumbed it down to something I could play and ran with it.

The idea for the tune came from something a friend of mine said... and it just grew from there.

The guitar solo is a loop... and perhaps a little out of place but makes a good place holder for when I can come back to this one. Of course I couldn't play anything even in the ball park!

Lyrics:
I want to know where you were today
but my lips aren't movin'
I think I know exactly what you'd say
but it's not proven

I'm holding back my intuition
flushing all my superstition
trying hard to stop suspicion

I don't trust what you say
But I really really want to
I can't look the other way
But i really really want to

I don't know what you did last week
But I don't have a fuzzy feeling
Take a moment before you speak
Is there something you're concealing

There's no need for grand illusions
gotta dry up all delusions
gonna block out my confusions

I don't trust what you say
But I really really want to
I can't look the other way
But i really really want to

It doesn't matter - I'm not breaking the code
I'll keep smiling and you'll think it's all fine
But when I kiss you I just want to explode
cause I can taste that you're not all mine

Where'd you go today for lunch
I heard it was the diner
Who were you with, I have a hunch
I bet the flirting wasn't minor

It's not me who needs adjusting
When it's obvious you're busting
Anything that's left worth trusting

This reminds me a lot of Deep Purple especially "Woman From Tokyo". Even though the solo is a loop it is a great "holding part". FAWM is also like one huge songwriter's lodge. For more info check out the book "The Frustrated Songwriter's Handbook" by Karl Coryat and Nicholas Dobson.
Thanks for sharing!
