Ukulele layered over the same ukulele! Brilliant!

And with this, the album comes to a close. It's kind of themey, but it replaced the old track 10 on the "concept album" idea.

I accidentally used the word "history" more times than I'd planned to in this song. Oh well!

lyrics

i spent all morning trying to learn
the perfect song for you,
but i couldn't play or sing the tune
to anything you knew.
so i started taking note of all
the things that i'd done wrong,
and i thought i could apologize
and you could sing along.

and i sang of ancient history
and things left in the past,
the actions of a desperate man,
of things that didn't last.
and i told you all my motivations,
told you all my fears,
i told you all the stupid things
that bothered me for years.

so i sang you my life story
through catchy words and scores;
truths and untold history
among these major chords.
and i told you what was real,
and what was just what i made up,
and i told you what it meant,
and how i thought i'd be in love

by now.
