My brother in Seattle sent me the piano track and I added the vocals. No other instrumentation needed. It is his arrangement of my song. I truly love this collaboration as David has been one of my strongest supporters and critics thru the years. He's amazing
Lyrics
Smitten and Resigned
Been smokin too much, sleepin on a bench
Doin lots of things lately that don’t make any sense
How can it be so insidious and sublime and i can’t keep you off my mind
Been dancin with demons it seems I’ve been livin the blues
Nothin seems right lately no matter which way I choose
I’m so off center now I could fall anytime and I can’t keep you off my mind
Well you’ve heard it before I was doing just fine
Then the last thing I needed was the first thing in line
And now no matter what there’s a pain and pine
And I can’t keep you off my mind
I’ll acquiesce throw in my hand
I fight it no more gonna take it like a man
Now you can see me on the corner of Smitten and Resigned
And I can’t keep you off my mind
Well you’ve heard it before I was doing just fine
Then the last thing I needed was the first thing in line
Now no matter what there’s a pain and pine
And I can’t keep you off my mind
I can’t keep you off of I can’t keep you off of
No I can’t keep you off my mind
I’m smitten and resigned
And I can’t keep you off my mind
