This Song for You

by @bethkille

Liner Notes

Well I totally biffed it yesterday and posted a breakup song on Valentine's Day, so I'm redeeming myself a day late :) I write a love song for my hubby every year on Valentine's Day so had to keep with tradition!

Lyrics

VERSE 1 A If you don’t know by now that I love when we’re together That you’re my best friend and soulmate That you’re stuck with me forever Bm E A
Then I guess I’ll have to ….Sing this song for you VERSE 2 A If you don’t know by now that I love to go exploring with you Or sit on the couch beside you with nothing at all to do Bm E A
I guess I’ll have to ….Sing this song for you

CHORUS 1 D And I don’t need romance…Or fancy bling A I don’t want flowers…Or chocolate covered anything Bm E Oh wait, maybe I do…. Bm E But all I really need is you -ooh -ooh -oo-oo ooh

VERSE 3 A If you don’t know by now you’re the peanut butter to my jelly The cream and sugar in my coffee, you’re the only one for me Bm E A
I guess I’ll have to ….Sing this song for you

CHORUS 2 D I don’t need 5-star hotels or a 12-course meal A I don’t want candy hearts…No, I just want to feel Bm E Your arms wrapped around me Bm E Cause that’s really all I nee e ee ee ee ee ee eed

VERSE 4 A If you don’t know by now that growing older with you On this crazy ride called life is my wildest dream come true Bm E A
Then I guess I’ll have to ….Sing this song for you

I love the FAWM valentine's songs for our ignored yet very loved partners. I do one every year, too, and even hit another cheesy love song for the wife last night on a skirmish to close things out. This is charming lyrically but especially in the performance. I always adore a sly wink of naughtiness, too. Maybe we've got some chocolate syrup around here somewhere...

Quite a contrast to your rick chock track. Love it, very oom pap pah German feel.

I think you redeemed yourself! What a fun little love song!

I LOVE this LOVE song! It's so upbeat and happy. :). I wanted to dance the minute it started.

Wow is that fun and sweet and happy! You're the best at matching music to lyrics. I shouldn't be surprised, but soooo great!

I feel a lot of Tony's personality in this one! Super fun listen. The chocolate line was my favorite :-)

What a sweet, fun, swingy tune for your beloved. Well done!

I love how this bounces along with so much joy! The jaunty piano, horn riffs, sticks, and the little vocal ooo ooo noodles are perfectly placed! Love the melody and your vocal delivery. And the lyrics make me smile - all of those delightfully fun sensory images!
