A Simple Melody SOTW #34
May 17, 2009 | Song of the Week
This weekend my wife and daughter were out of town so I pulled an all nighter and spit out two songs. Yep, we went from not having a song on Friday evening to having two! Lindsey wasn’t gone for even an hour and I was already missin’ her. This is the kind of song you get when that happens… enjoy.
Note from Tim: Patrick sent me the first draft of this at 1am. He sent me the second draft at 6am. Now that’s commitment to your craft!
Thanks again to Jeff of Jeff Moore Photography for another awesome picture made especially for New Music Monday! And thanks to Joe for being his model!
Lyrics are below…
A Simple Melody
lyrics by Patrick Largen
I’ll write a simple melody
And I’ll sing nice things and strum these strings
To try to tell you what you mean to me
But it will never do
And I’ll think of moments back in time
And I’ll try to write a witty line
But words are never kind to me
And they will never be
All I really want to say
Has been said before but I’ll say it more
That you mean the world to me
And I love you

You, sir, are quite the wordsmith. Beautiful song Pack (and Tim!).
Love it! Of course Lindsey inspires beautiful music!
My favorite song yet. Not sure if I like that you named me, I would prefer “a model to be named.” But that’s ok I guess.
@Joe- maybe this will be the start of a new career for you… professional male model. If you’ve got it, flaunt it!
Yeah well I think the issue lies in the if you’ve got it part but thanks anyways Tim.
is this song in any cd??
