about

My home recordings are coming to life in Bandcamp! I'm going to start releasing them one by one until they pile up to EP/LP size which I'll be calling "Quarantine Dreams" for now and it's all starting with this song. I'm in love with the old sounds of 60's girl groups and that amazing Phil Spector 'wall of sound' vibe. This is a fun spin on a great old tune by The Smoking Popes. I also am so thrilled to have had the help of two of my favorite musician/songwriters~Monica LaPlante and Little Dave Merrimen of Chicago's The Arrivals on this track. So Voila!

lyrics

If I could see into your heart. Then I would know just where to start. Because I'm lost and I need to be found. Crazy as it sounds, I need you around.
If I could stand to be on my own then I would probably just leave you alone. But I'm gonna feel this way til I'm six feet underground. Crazy as it sounds, I need you around.
Turning, tossing and turning, my love is burning me down.
If I could change one thing in this world. I'd change your mind. And I'd be your girl.
Because I'm lost and I need to be found. Crazy as it sounds. I need you around.
I'm gonna feel this way till I'm six feet underground. Crazy as it sounds, I need you around.
