Love the imagery. Unpredictable rhymes, too. Nice job.

Paul,
Nice guitar tone and great vocals but you need a guitar solo or at the least some guitar noodling. smile The first Verse is good but it would make more sense if you used “from the shore” on the “But I sailed a one man crew on the shore” line. This song would be great for singer-songwriter or an epic string arrangement, too.  My favorite line is “But I’ve crawled on my belly in the heat of a storm Trying to be the last to come first” … That’s deep.  Keep swinging!  Thanks, Brent

Anyone but you

Written by Paul deMarco

Anyone but you by Paul deMarco ©2031

Well I never lived by the ocean before
And woke up to the sound of the waves
But i sailed a one man crew on the shore
Set adrift and stranded for days

If I could be anywhere in the world
Under the midday sun
I wouldn't be with anyone else but you… yeah you

Well I never spent much time in the woods
Surrounded by soft earth and pine
But I been lost in a forest of steel
Looking for a home to call mine

Chorus

No I've never wandered through hot desert sand
Wanting to quench my thirst
But I've crawled on my belly in the heat of a storm
Trying to be the last to come first

Chorus
