Hi Lynn,

Thanks so much for your nice comments and good suggestions.

Ya know, I was hoping “safely” hinted at how he makes her feel….and counters the “crazy”….that’s what was in my mind anyway, as I wrote it…and yet I see how “baby” works too…kinda brings in a more sensual element to it….and maintains the rhyme. I appreciate knowing how it strikes you…

I structured V3 as a verse, but musically, it’s actually a lift there now, along with the “walk along the pier” section. I see what you’re saying with just including that part…getting to the chorus quicker…..I don’t know how that would effect it musically, but if needed, there’s always ways to experiment…

Thanks again for taking the time to take a look at this!
