Top Of The Tree - Demo - with home made vintage chocolate tin three string strummer

http://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/
Bit of a mid life crisis song, about getting older and stuff : -/...the music's quite upbeat though!.
I'm playing my vintage chocolate tin strummer, which can be seen better on this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=-TgxtJ5yWK0

LYRICS

The sun comes UP, the sun goes DOWN,
and everything is changing all the time.

I breath IN, I breath OUT.
Now you're not here and nothing is the same.

I FILL my glass. I EMPTY it.
We all drink more since you are not around.

You were HERE, then you were GONE,
and I'm still trying hard to understand.

I was YOUNG, now I'm OLD,
and I am at the top of the tree.
Don't wannna be on top of the tree.
Not ready for the top of the tree!!

really just very lovely. Some days old feels pretty good and some days it just feels dirt old. Love your spin on it. Very nice sound all the way around

Thank you, my granddaughter and I just watched together. We made some music together today... "Away in a Manger" for this Christmas, you don't get to do special things like that till you reach the "top of the Tree"!

Everyone I share your music with has really liked it, thanks for sharing.
