We Can Find A Way (Acoustic Demo)
Andrew Russe
Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2022
Song number 2
Written Monday 7th February 2022
I wrote this one a couple of hours ago.
I set up for recording, and busted a string on the Martin… GAH!!!
I tried a big ole dreadnought thing that I restrung over Christmas, didn’t like that one bit.
So I dug out the Fender Paramount all Mahogany Parlour guitar.
WOW! That records well.
Restringing the Martin in a bit (it’s my songwriting geetar).
But I think I’ll be using the Paramount for recording again.
I can hear my nearly 59 year-old throat is getting a bit tired.
If I manage this 14 songs thing, I’ll either have a very fit voice or no voice by the end of it!! LOL
Once again, massive arrangement etc already in my head for this little thing.
We Can Find A Way - A A J Russe
We can find a way to do this
We can find a way I promise
We can find a way
You’re not alone
It won’t be long
Until you notice
That it’s time
For us to go
Then you’ll find
You cannot carry
All those things
You think you own
Well we waited for the sunshine
How you waited for the sun
And when it finally got here
It said run
Run
We can find a way to do this
We can find a way I promise
We can find a way
You’re not alone
You are all I ever wanted
Nothing else I’ve ever needed
We can find a way
Hey let’s go home
I know your dreams
Were somewhat wider
Than the space
In which you stand
And the toys
You thought we needed
Wore out sooner
Than you planned
How we tried to build a palace
In this valley that we love
But it seems we don’t belong here
It says run
Run
We can find a way to do this
We can find a way I promise
We can find a way
You’re not alone
You are all I ever wanted
Nothing else I’ve ever needed
We can find a way
Hey let’s go home

holy cow......I hadn't heard this one before! Gorgeous!!! That Fender did it's job well. Absolutely love this. I think this one is perfect as an acoustic version.
Great vocals! Raw and honest. I love nuances that cannot be replicated, it lends to a one-of-a-kind recording.
Liking unplugged Russe!
GEEZZZZZZZ! Your lyrics always just slay! Fun to imagine all your arrangements moving about in your head. It sounds like a major league anthem in the making!
