Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2022
Song number 15
Written Wednesday 23rd February 2022


I wasn’t able to stop! I really meant to, but… Oh well.

It’s still February, so it can go with the others.

IT IS MY FIRM INTENTION TO STOP NOW.

But on the other hand, I always have tended to write every time I pick up a guitar…
And the FAWM sausage-factory mentality has got me into “finishing”…
It’s also got me into recording myself a demo…

So here’s today’s


Be Big - A A J Russe

While you were watching from the sidelines
I made this special thing for you
I wasn’t sure if I should send it
To you

We did not know if you were happy
Or if you needed someone’s help
While you were gone I fell in love
With someone else

We waited so long
To see you
To hear something new
Now that you’re here
We’re hoping
That what you’ll do
Is

Be big
Not small
Be big
For us all
We know
What it costs you
To be big

While you were hiding from the headlines
While you were trying to live a life
We were wondering what happened
To you

Did all your hair fall out
Did you lose your voice
Now that you’re back
We’re hoping
That what you’ll do
Is

Be big
Not small
Be big
For us all
We know
What it costs you
To be big

Love this song! Congratulations - what an accomplishment. I can imagine your fingers are a bit sore and your voice is craving a cold libation. But very glad you shared these with all of us.

Saved!
