Steemit Open Mic Week 82- Thinkin' of You // Gentle Ben Atkins (Original Song)

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Hey Folks!! This is my first ever entry in the Steemit Open Mic contest!  I do hope everyone enjoys it.

I wrote this song for a girl back in Texas who stopped waiting for me a long time ago. I call it Thinkin' of You.

Lyrics:

Day breaks on the treetops

Tomorrow's just begun

Mamma said every new day

Brings something good to come

But I've been waiting all night

For these teardrops to dry

And you still aint come home

You still aint come home

You still aint come home

still aint come...


Sun sets on my garden

Darkens yesterday

My phone aint rang one time

Since you went away

No, you're gone

And I can't stop thinking of you


And the thought of sleep is just an empty sigh

My weary days turning into nights

And all I want is to hear your laughter one more time

I should move on but baby I just can't stop crying

Where you gone? Oh and with who?

Lord I've spent so long, yes so long, thinking of you

Thinking of you

Thinking of you...


I want to send a special thank you to @luisferchav for motivating me to enter the Open Mic.  Peace y'all.

Bravo! Hey, great song man! Love the voice. All the best for week 82. Hope to hear more from ya.

Wow.. what a performance. Damn. And if you may recall, although probably you might not, in your first post I commented that we should be friends. "We gotta be friends," I said. And I say it again now.
