This weeks song is a transatlantic affair. When I used to run Acoustic Engine gigs, one of the great bits of it was having songwriters from all over the world come along and play for us. Doug Hoekstra from Chicago via Nashville was one of the first. Doug’s songs are quiet (live anyway) and intelligent pieces so I just had to make a racket when writing this one to Doug’s lyric.
I’ve slightly altered the odd word and added one or two of my own. I think this song may be about keeping hold of our child like qualities, but I could be wrong.
I wrote it on my ukelele - you have been warned.
