Hideaway cove (a new song)
Hi all,
When I'm done with my 9-5, I'll often go to my hideaway cove where I can relax, work on songs, paintings, poems, or watch movies. In short, it's my retreat and necessary to offset the daily grind. Some have accused me of being a bit of a hermit, but how else is anyone supposed to create? This song is all about that. Hope you enjoy it!
Signed,
PB from her HC
lyrics:
Hideaway hideaway hideaway cove
where she goes nobody knows
HHH cove
she's cloaked in a robe from her head to her toes
stand up and look around
she's nowhere to be found
she's gone to her hermitage, living large
Got an itch to go wander
in the labyrinth of her core
she'd rather dig for gold and so much more
she doesn't care what she looks like
lost in her own reverie
she's got her hair down
is wild and free
and when she makes it, she wakes up to her dream
she's a butterfly and carefree
HHH cove
where she goes nobody knows
HHH cove
she's there with the wind, there she blows
she slips into her favorite blue jeans
head to the record machine
she's got her favorite reruns on t.v.
and when she gets up
she's fired up, top of her game
solitude gives her no shame
silence is her music
cosmos her best friend
hermit keeps her focus 'til the end
HHH cove
her bed is her lair with all her tools around
she's got bright colors, word and sound
spinning them in a maelstrom
gelling an ecstatic mix
she's found her special brand of bliss
HHH cove
she's writing, singing, painting and a dancing (3x)
and she can be napping in her little room
HHH cove

Nice Paulina! I really liked these lines both lyrically and musically:
Got an itch to go wander
in the labyrinth of her core
When you get to this part, it felt like you could try a descending chord run with the changes on the italicized words
lost in her own reverie
Glad to hear you have somewhere to go when you want some creative alone time!

Thank you, RDM! I appreciate your comments. I will look into descending chord runs and try to employ them. This was such a simple song chord-wise. It will evolve over time, I hope!

Great song Paulina. I love the lyrics. Nice to see you with your acoustic guitar. We creative souls all need a retreat where we can can do what we do, or just spend some time to ourselves. Mines a shed where my pc and stuff lives. 😀

I really like your voice - I think I mentioned this before. This is a very sweet and melodic song. I really enjoyed your story of creative freedom and joy. It's a real 'cleanse your song' song. 👍️ I loved the joyful 'bum ba dum's'.
One small suggestion (and if you've seen my lyrics you may see it's best ignored 🤣)
"she's a butterfly and carefree"
Possibly try:
She's a butterfly - flying free
Just a thought. 🙂
Peace and love,
CCB

Many thanks for your comments, CCB. I'll incorporate that change. My website says Paulina Butterfly, Flying Free, so it is appropriate. Peace, love and joy, PB

Nice control over the guitar. Reminds me of good songs from the 70's or something like that. Very nice to listen. Keep rocking.
