Lyrics
I've been away for the longest time
It won't take much for me to change my mind
If you decided you were born to love,
Well I'd be waiting on the other side.

Mary said that he was hard to love
It took her years to get inside his mind
And when she found that he was not for love
She climbed a bottle on the other side
She climbed a bottle on the other side
And then she'd fly, so high
She heard Journey on the radio
Then she'd try, try not to cry
Because of Journey on the radio

You've been gone for a long long time honey
Hope it don't take much to change your mind
If I decided I was born for love
Would you be waiting on the other side?
Would you be waiting on the other side?
Cuz when I die, one day
I want Journey on the radio
When I die, try not to cry
Just put Journey on a radio
I want to journey on a radio
I want to journey on a radio

WOW!
It talks about stunning in the vote window, and that is exactly how I feel about this piece, production, and all around sound. It is stunning and takes my breath away for the talent, skill and feeling put into this. Very well done and thank you for the outstanding listen, and sharing it with us here.

Simple songs
Sometimes you don't need an elaborate arrangement to get a story across. This sounds fine to me. Eh, you need to redo a couple of vocal phrases that are out of tune. Great song otherwise.

Love this!
Simple and solid post.No need to add to what you have here.Stands on it's own as is.Only suggestion would be a little tightening up in the second voice work.Thanks for the sharing.

Blessings

Another fantastic song from you Christian
Another very cool tune from you. You have a very easy voice to listen to, and write such good lyrics. Some looseness in the harmonies and the guitar only add to the excellence of the track.
Always keen to hear new tunes from you.

Great lyrics! It's very quiet, probably just my very bad speakers at work :(
Love the writing though, very good tune!

you're so right
I do my best with the guitar, but I definitely know I need some sit downs on that one.

Thanks for getting the tune man, your comments are very much appreciated.
