This is a blues song with full band accompaniment. Sometimes I like to get away from the gentle stuff and deliver a gutsier, more soulful vocal!

Story behind the song
If you listen to the lyrics of this song I think it's fairly obvious what inspired the writing of it. It's in the title, and something most people, especially men, can relate to as a result of having gone through such an experience at some point in their lives.
Lyrics
Can't Show My Heart
I can't show my heart
I can't sell my pride
I can't bring myself to tell you
What I think of you.
It's a life apart,
Oh, this world inside
A private place I only wish
That I could show to you.
Chorus:
You look so good
You seem so kind
And if I could
I'd speak of what's on my mind
Can you tell me now
If you think of me
As more than just a tiny footnote
In the life you lead?
Does it show somehow
Or is it hard to see
The way I feel you have a presence
Which is rare indeed?
Chorus
Instrumental break and chorus
Repeat of verse one and chorus
