I got the idea for this song when I took a selfie of my wife and I one morning before heading off to work in a snowstorm. I started thinking, suppose we took a selfie every morning. Wouldn't that be a lot of pictures of us on my phone? Many thanks to Brent and songwriting pro members for critiquing the song and making suggestions to improve it. I hope this version is a keeper.

We have always lived in rural areas, as a result we never had trash pickup service.
So every Saturday morning, as my song says, “I headed to the local junk yard,
I had some rusty things to discard “.
But before I left the house, my wife would always ask me, “ if you find any good, bring it home” and honestly, folks did quite often leave something of value that we could use and so, I did bring some things home.
But one Saturday morning, while at the junkyard, I got to thinkin, what if while I’m here some fella drives in and while there, he gets into an argument with his girlfriend, then he just leaves her there standing all alone. When I noticed the girl standing there I thought,
Well, “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure “
And that is where the idea for my song came from.

"Throw A Heart Around Us" is a song about first love. It is a heartfelt ballad for anyone who has ever fallen in love and felt everything at once. I'm thinking it could make a great wedding song. I had posted this song previously, but made some much needed changes hopefully for the better. I thank everyone on songwriter pro who commented on the previous version and encouraged me to improve it.
