Song information
Back in early 2006 I recorded my first love song to Diana. The original mix was rather cheesy and somewhat psychedelic. Recently as I was giving it a another listen it occurred to me that the song deserved better treatment than that!

I got rid of my piano work and my electric guitar, along with various psych-effects, and sent the files to my good friend Al Hughson.

In Al’s MAGIC hands the song has finally become what it was always intended to be!

The vocal, acoustic guitar, bass and drums are mine from 2006.

Al has added some fine ivory tickling, and some excellent lead guitar work. He also has done one hell of a job on the mix and final master.

Oh, and heartfelt thanks to Robert Zimmerman for the brief cameo.

Lyrics
BITTERSWEET

I
Sitting and sipping our morning coffee…
Me, I’m chattering like an ape;
‘bout all the stuff you can’t relate to.

And instead of making your escape
—You sit and smile so serenely.
You tolerate my verbal spree.
Makes me glad that you still love me dear.
Seems you’re always there for me!

II
This old life sure has its ups and downs.
It’s positively bittersweet.
Makes me glad we have each other!
Ain’t no better way to be…

Baby I know it sometimes seems that
the cure is worse than the disease;
but you know the doctors always in, honey
—when this life drives you to your knees!

III
Baby I know it often seems like
“the cure is worse than the disease… Yes it Is!”
But I got no problem making house calls, honey.
I’ll try to give you what you need!

Baby I love you!
You know I always will!
I’ll always be there for you darling;
when life hands you a bitter pill…

U2? What do THEY have to do with this? Lol ...
Sorry. Couldn't resist.
Anyway, thanks for listening and commenting Dyl; especially for giving Al his well deserved props for his piano work and lead soloing!

Thanks Omar! Al's a bigger talent than I, so I too consider it an upgrade.

Love the upbeat feel. Kind of a mood lifter, and I love when a song does that.
