A Better World For All
I feel like I have been so lucky in my life because I have always had at least one close friend who I could turn to for help and support. Most of the time that friend has been my Mother. No matter what stupid situation I put myself in, she is always on my side and ready to bail me out.
As I have gone through my life I have found other wonderful people who will also help me at the drop of a hat and I would do the same for them. Having friends like this is such a privilege.
I know some people are not so lucky. There are those who live almost solitary lives and not because they chose it. In a better world we would all have at least one close friend who we could turn to in times of need and this is why I have chosen 'Count on Me' by Bruno Mars, because it's a song all about friendship.
I added a bit of reverb and some simple vocal harmony by multi-tracking it through Logic Pro. I hope you enjoy it.
lyrics
Uh ha hum
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you
We'll find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it, I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
If you tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Every day I will remind you, oh
We'll find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it, I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
You'll always have my shoulder when you cry
I'll never let go, never say goodbye
You know
You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
