Simplistic
I just released my first solo album after two years of working on it. Also, I'm currently playing in the band National Road which is a four-piece acoustic outfit based in Frostburg, Maryland. Several members of the band contributed to the album.
Story behind the song
Written for a girl who thinks she's a "plain Jane."
Lyrics
“Jane”
Music & Lyrics by Eric J. Baker (2010)
Shall I compare you to a blithe breeze blowin’ in the spring?
No, that’s too narrow of a song to sing
‘Cause in my eyes you’re so much more; you’re the evening, morning, dusk, and dawn
The melody, the muse for my songs
CHORUS
Jane; sunshine, clouds, wind, and rain
Jane; you are my all; my everything
Darling companion, lover, best friend, and keeper of my secrets
Your loving me has made me feel I’ve been blessed
‘Cause you are my Juliet, my Cleopatra, my Viola
Oh my love, forever wanna hold ya
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Destiny, fate, circumstance; you hum the tune to which I dance
Inspire the words I write; I am the darkness, you’re the light
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
TAG: Jane; you are the pleasure and the pain
Ah Jane, you are the autumn and the spring
