Instrumental version of an original song. This has not been mastered, and is my own mix, but it sounds pretty good to me.
The tune is a driven rock song, medium Aerosmith or hard Foreigner.
Singer/songwriter with many influences and a love of music
Story behind the song
It's about the search for Love and what you can learn about yourself along the way.

Searching
(V1)
I spent a long time searching
for the one who would be mine.
Spent many hours working
on ways to keep the Love I'd find
I travelled distant lands
Looking high and low
from snowy peaks to tropic sands
just to find the one who'd know
(C1)
But I Found...
far too many
interested in my gold.
And I found...
far too few
who knew Love's roots are in the soul.
So.....
I kept Searchin'
(V2)
I thought lonely days and nights
were never, ever gonna end
I climbed to lofty heights
to beg answers of wise men.
One man told me that
the answer I already knew
and like the Cheshire Cat he grinned,
and faded shades into the blue.
(C2)
And I Found...
my confusion
had taken all the best of me.
And I found...
self-delusion
had diverted me from sanity.
So...
I kept Searchin'...
I kept Searchin'.
(Br)
I must've used a thousand alibis,
and told a million lies.
I never knew it would be so easy
to see through that disguise.
When the only thing you are is you,
and they cut you down to size,
when all the cuttings through, my friend
You're closer to the prize...
I kept searchin',
I kept searchin'.
