So grateful that TC added some wonderful music! He turned these lyrics into a gorgeous song!!!

Lyrics: 

V1
we sat in your pick-up
on a Saturday night
talking about new songs
that we both really liked

listening to the radio
and singing right along
like we had been doing
the whole summer long

V2
I reached on over
to find a new station
when my hand brushed your arm
I found new sensations

when you looked at me
I felt anticipation
then your lips kissed mine
brining sweet elation

C
I never saw it coming
but I’m glad it did
I never knew one kiss
could feel so good

I never saw it coming
I hope it comes again
and takes us down the path
to lovers from friends

V3
now I wait by the door
for your pick-up truck
my heart is racing fast
as I’m feeling love struck

I try to think of what I’ll say
but my mind is really stuck
I just want another kiss
and I hope I’m in luck

C
I never saw it coming
but I’m glad it did
I never knew one kiss
could feel so good

I never saw it coming
I hope it comes again
and takes us down the path
to lovers from friends

B
the best things in life
can take us by surprise
with one brush of a hand
or a look in one’s eyes

C
I never saw it coming
but I’m glad it did
I never knew one kiss
could feel so good

I never saw it coming
I hope it comes again
and take us down the path
to lovers from friends



Please keep your comments respectful, honest, and constructive. Please focus on the song and not the demo.

Awww, this is so sweet! I went in a similar direction.nim so glad we both took happy and hopeful takes on the prompt. You included string details and I can envision this scenario so clearly.

So good. It's a perfect pop/country song. Such a positive sentiment. Great work in such a short time.

I really like this lyric. Do you mind if I attempt to muscify it?
edit to add: Also, I sent you an email to the address I had from a couple of years ago.

Have just listened to the music version of this song. The guitar is very good indeed and the melody is strong. Very good vocal. A true country love song.
