Howdy Hobes,

Thanks so much for checking this out. I sort of agree on that second half of the first verse. Originally, I had it written as:
IF all I get's icy indifference
THEN I'd rather live without. Minor word change, but the guys wanted it this way..so I let it go even though it changes the meaning quite a bit. As far as putting something about cold/ice, etc in that last line..it is already in the line above it (icy indifference), so not sure it is needed in the last line also. It follows the first half of that verse that has the fire part in the 3rd line also.

This was the first time I have ever tried to write music and lyrics at the same time. It was an interesting experience for me, not being an accomplished musician. Some things that seem weird lyrically sound just fine with the music...and I learned how to let go and let the music make things work. You are so right about the stretching part. It did feel good. Was really fun to have input into the music part also. Just wish I was more trained in that area. Guess I will have to get going with my music lessons too. <G>

To be honest, I have no clue if this Matt is the one you were talking about or not. He was a darn good guitar picker, that is all I know...but quite young, probably no more than 21 at most.

Thanks once again for the read and remarks.
Bobbie
