The Only One - Aka Peeping Through Your Eyelashes (New Song) Outside Ely Cathedral

http://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/

This was my first time busking in Ely. Really enjoyed it...beautiful surroundings, and the people were very friendly and interested in my home made instruments : -) Will definitely be going back.
I'm playing my 3 string Cohiba CBG. For more info about it check out this video http://www.cigarboxnation.com/video/cohiba-3-string-fretted-cigar-box-guitar-with-flatpup

LYRICS:

The Only One (aka Peeping Through Your Eyelashes)

Did you peep through your eyelashes
when told to pray at school?
Did you often find yourself
questioning the rules?
Please tell me,
yeah tell me,
I wasn't the only one.

Do you sometimes feel like
the string on a balloon?
Drifting aimlessly
wherever the wind takes you?
Please tell me,
yeah tell me,
I'm not the only one.

These days it always seems
I'm running out of time,
but I keep singing my song
louder every day.

In this ever changing world
I need you to be the same.
Your glass is not half empty
so talk to me again,
and tell me,
yeah tell me,
I'm the only one..

thanks a lot everyone for the lovely comments : -) Went for another long busk today. Didn't take a big coat as it was supposed to be pretty warm, but the sun didn't ever quite come out and I was in a  really breezy spot. Got frozen!! Warming up with a warm one of these https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=jack+daniels+punch&espv=210&a...
