This song’s inspired by the film “Crazy Heart” and Jeff Bridge’s voice. Till now, I couldn’t muster the courage to post this, for one thing I was worried about was how my audience would receive it, secondly – Is this really and really what I claim it is – a country song. I used to read and hum imagining myself as a blues or country music singer, singing in his whiskey tinged heavy baritone voice. People tell me that a country music artist sings a piece right from his heart. So, sing as if you are reading it with a guitar strumming softly inside your head. Let me know how you feel reading this – Good, Bad or Ugly. Your comments help me get better !
I Promise I won’t Wrong !
I was going back
Back to where I came from,
When she called me
Saying come back home.
I was feeling bad,
That I let her down,
She said,
Baby, that’s OK.
I was wrong,
I’ve been wrong, all this while,
I said,
Sorry I let you down.
She said,
Love your dear.
Forgive me,
And that always happens in love.
Forgive me too,
Love you so much,
I said,
With a whiskey in my hand.
She said,
Come back home now,
I’m waiting for you,
With your guitar and a lonely heart.
Turning around
I said,
Four hours and a few miles honey,
I will sing you a new song,
I promise I won’t wrong.
