About
Written early in 2023, I created this song as a Mother's Day gift for my Mom.
I wanted to create a unique gift for her that would help convey how much she meant to me. The opening lyrics "She's got strands of gold and silver in her hair" was the first thing that came to mind when writing this song. It's the statement that launched the entire song. Trying to explain how blue her eyes are, was a challenge, but I felt satisfied when I finally thought of the words "oceans of diamonds". All of the lyrics are written by me, from my heart. We have such a close bond, one song really doesn't do our relationship justice. But she loved it. I am so thankful for my best friend, who is also "My Mother". The lyrics will be added to my songs and poems page soon. |
I wrote this song on May 24, 2017. Written to the music of Keane's song "Somewhere Only We Know".
It's a beautiful song, and I decided to use it as a platform for the story I wanted to tell. People started requesting I share my song, and that's what encouraged me to record it several years later. It was written about a secret, long distance relationship I had with a guy. Little did I know, it ended up being a toxic relationship. I didn't know what that was at 25, but I soon found out. I enjoyed our friendship/relationship until he was mean to me. I wrote this song before he showed his true colors. However, I love how the song turned out, that I went ahead and recorded it in 2022. Uploaded it in 2023. And re-recorded it in 2025, re-uploading it so it was more up to date with my voice. This song is about enjoying what you have until you realize it's time to let go. |
