Steemit Open Mic Week 100 - "Original Lover" (original song)

---

Hi! Here's my entry for Steemit Open Mic Week 100 - performing a little song I wrote called "Original Lover" on the ukulele :)

Thank you to @luzcypher for hosting & sponsoring Steemit Open Mic and to everyone participating & supporting this event!

LYRICS:
Met him back, was only sixteen
And I didn't think anything
Of it, who would have known
That there he was
Just a boy who was in my class
But he wasn't the type to come asking
If I'd be his own
But there he was

(Chorus)
Oh, oh, oh, original lover
I don't want another
You were always there for me
(Said) oh, oh, oh, original lover
Let's get under the covers
You know you give me what I need

I knew he was something else
When I left a month and no one else
Took my place, on his mind
There I was
And every night we’d be on the phone
Counting down the days ’til we’d be alone
In the center of his heart
There I was

(Chorus)
Oh, oh, oh, original lover
I don't want another
You were always there for me
(Said) oh, oh, oh, original lover
Let's get under the covers
You know you give me what I need

And when I start to question if it’s really right
I wonder, am I missing out? (out)
But then I see how much you love me, baby
And I know
We’re what it’s all about
Yeah…

(Chorus)
Oh, oh, oh, original lover
I don't want another
You were always there for me
(Said) oh, oh, oh, original lover
Take me under the covers
You know you give me what I need
