I wrote and recorded this a couple of weeks ago. The wife and I watched this weird 6 Part TV Drama thing, called Alice & Jack, that was pretty rubbish but it was one of those where you're determined to follow it through to the end to try and fathom out what the hell is going on.
Anyway, after the last episode and the next day, I wrote this very simple song in a very short time, around 10 minutes, if that. Took about the same amount of time to record it as I thought I'd keep it simple. Afterwards, I can now kind of see that the Drama inspired the lyrics and it all fit quite well.
As always, thoughts and crits welcomed.
I know, it’s true, my love has been in vain
And I know, you do those things you do for gain
But I can see the sunshine through the rain
I know, it’s true, I won’t win any way
And I know, I’m just a pawn inside your game
But I still see the the sunshine through the rain
You don’t believe the things I tell you
And you won’t believe the words I say
And I know, it’s true you love to be in pain
And I know, the things you do drive me insane.
But I can still see sunshine through the rain
I know, it’s true that we can’t break this chain
And I know, when we are gone we’ll meet again
And I will still see sunshine through the rain
I know, it’s true
I know, it’s true
I Know, It's True.
I Know, It's True.

Thanks Bob. I think it was one of those times when everything was just right and it all came together so very easily. It doesn't happen often for me but I was very happy with this one.
Hope you're doing well.

Re: I Know, It's True.
That was pretty.
If I'm fishing for nits... maybe you could compress the vocals a little more? There are some transients that are jumping out as a little loud.

I forgot to comment here as I'd done so elsewhere.
LOVELY piece, a little touch of early Schmilsson in the melody & delivery.
Cool playing too.
