Just a Number

I cobbled this together from old bits and pieces of lyrics (and some new) from abandoned tunes long forgotten


Just a Number


Turn the page and walk away

Fragile chords played everyday

Fooled me once with all those lies

Hidden behind your fake disguise


Like a postcard from a stranger

I was just your entertainer

And on the sleepless edge of night

Empty feeling became defined


Love one day and leave another

I didn’t know I was just a number

Loved one day then found another

Like a postcard from a stranger


Sticks & stones broke my bones

Smiling eyes see through lies

Forget my name it’ll go away

Fragile chords played everyday


Party people dressed in gold

On their back a heavy load

Love one day and leave another

Didn’t know I was just a number


Love one day and leave another

I didn’t know I was just a number

Loved one day then found another

Like a postcard from a stranger

    Great tune @WelshSteve per the usual. Hooked me from the start. Your music, I can tell you really work hard on...and it pays. And yes, highly relatable in so many ways; Just A Number. I especially like the 'like a postcard from a stranger'...hits home. I love that you dug through your old parts/starts and were able to put them together into a great song. And now, your song comes on after one of mine on SoundCloud; LOVE THE BEAT! Very catchy tune!

    Write on,

    I agree with Barry, the groove is so good, and the 70s sounding production on the vocals just adds to the cool factor. Great tune to jam to!
  • Lovely groove, carried by the bassline. Got real mood and atmosphere too.

    Very well done, Steve!
