Liner Notes

#girlwithguitar #lovesong

Another love song! This is my husband's and my story, starting off as friends and then just hanging out forever :) I have a few bits I may want to tweak here and there but overall I liked how it came out!

Lyrics

Back then, just friends But that's not where this story ends Study sessions, late nights Cheesy fries at midnight Cheesy fries at midnight

I'm miles away, skype calls Finally visit at St Pauls Long walks, long talks Distance long but we're still strong Distance long but we're still strong

(Cause we're) Hand in hand and heart to heart As each new adventures start (We'll be) Hanging out together Now until forever It's you and me And a cup of tea

Exchanging promises, exchanging rings Not sure what the future brings Bright eyes, new tries I should be scared but it's with you Should be scared but it's with you

(Cause we're) Hand in hand and heart to heart As each new adventures start (We'll be) Hanging out together Now until forever It's you and me And a cup of tea

Years later, we're still us As we wrestle the kiddos out to the bus Washing dishes, making wishes Whatever comes I'm with you Whatever comes I'm with you

(Cause we're) Hand in hand and heart to heart As each new adventures start (We'll be) Hanging out together Now until forever It's you and me And a cup of tea It's you and me And a cup of tea It's you and me You're my cup of tea

The title was engaging and brought me in. This such a sweet little love song that I'm sure people can relate to. I love the "cheesy fries" line! I love the idea of "love" being framed as an "adventure" and "hanging out". It just feels so accessible and down-to-earth. Also, this melody is so catchy! I love this little love song!

THIS is the best kind of love story. Especially since it begins with cheesy fries (really - I think that's all kinds of awesome). Overall it's the chorus that is so uplifting and I salute you and your husband for a love song that continues to play. Excellent tune!

I've been noticing how much you've grown in composition and branching out in melodies and lyrics, and this is a really great example. It's beautiful.

I LOVE this. My wife and I were also besties for a long time before we even started considering dating. So sweet a song. Lovely work my friend!
