A fool who’s chasing the wind.

Verse

I’m two thousand miles from Brooklynn

Day dreaming of L.A.

I’m just outside of St. Louis

Stuck in the pouring rain.

Chorus

I’m in between, I’m in between.

Where I’m going and where I’ve been.

I’m nobody, I’m somebody

I’m a fool who’s chasing the wind.

Verse

I’m one sun set from disaster

Awaiting the sunrise.

In the eye of a hurricane.

Looking up at blue skies.

Chorus

I’m in between, I’m in between.

Where I’m going and where I’ve been.

I’m nobody, I’m somebody

I’m a fool who’s chasing the wind.

Bridge

I’m one song from a cup of coffee.

A long way from center stage.

I’m one night from a gig in Reno

Where I’ll blow the crowd away.

Verse

I’m a rainbow in the desert

 

A mirage nothing more.

I’m a river in an ocean.

A dream behind closed doors.

Chorus

I’m in between, I’m in between.

Where I’m going and where I’ve been.

I’m nobody, I’m somebody

I’m a fool who’s chasing the wind.

Tag

A fool, a fool

 A fool who’s chasing the wind.

Enjoyed Da Read.I think a simple title Chasing The Wind would be better.

I didn't use it because Donovan had a song chasing the wind

Suggestion for the tag:

”I’m a fool, a fool,

But I’ll keep chasing the wind.”

Moves things forward a bit.

Sorry for the bad vocals. I'm not too sure about this one.

All the best
Robert

I like the music but your vocals seem out of time with it.

I think it's the 16th notes in the drum track that make it seem a little choppy, quantize to 8ths and simplify the rhythm a bit 🙂

Thanks Tony. I did what you suggested. It does sound a bit smoother now. I uploaded the new version to Soundclick. It's at the existing URL I previously posted.

All the best
Robert

Much better this time. Want to get someone to sing the vocals on finished song?

I'm not sold on this to be honest. The melody doesn't grab me. It seems all over the place and never really gets going. Sorry if that comes across as negative. I only say it because I've heard such great things from you.
