(Never Treat Me Like) Stranger

(never treat me like) stranger is a tiny tune at just 2:09. i used a handheld mp3 recorder to capture the ideas before i forgot them. for those curious, i use a microtrack 24/96 from m-audio. it was a long day and this was the perfect lazy jam to ride into the wee hours of the morning. it’s inspired by a few conversations of late – mostly about how easily people get bored with their relationships (and their lives in general). the last section speaks directly to that. the rest plays off the whims people chase to keep life feeling fresh. this song will be recorded professionally in my studio for the forthcoming record.

never treat me like stranger

if you should ever
tire of the floating world
if you should ever
want to see your hair in curls
if you should ever
doubt that you’re my only girl

no matter the present danger
hope you never treat me like
treat me like stranger

if you should ever
wanna drive a different car
if you should ever
wanna take a trip to mars
if you should ever
feel our love is drifting apart

no matter the present danger
or forces out to derange ya
hope you never feel you gotta change
or treat me like
treat me like stranger

minds race
the days grow long
too easy to be bored
we could right
a thousand wrongs
that long for the sword
that cuts down falling souls
that keeps us feeling whole

you should…
