hey Erin--i like the chorus allot, and i'll lay off the heart surgery, it's been said...i found the very first verse a bit awkward, especially the time/space thing, i didn't get it right off, and the word "recently" hit me hard the first listen, especially when you went to the dream... i'd rework that verse a bit IMHO to make it clearer.i agree with casey on the thank god idea, and the "gone" idea clashing some....thanks for posting a rough tune, i like where it's going, the structure/music IMHO is there! BTW, like the harmony!!all the best,warren

Erin, I'm trying to get back on this board more often but I've been swamped with family stuff. Great song Erin! The melody is very memorable. I agree with the "heart surgery" line...I do however, appreciate your originality there I can certainly relate to lines like that...but it's a little too harsh of a phrase. I like your setup of running into this person and the thoughts going through the protagonists head. As for genre, I think you could go different directions with this one. The melodies and words are not overtly country. great jobAndy

Hi Erin,Not much to add to everyone's comments, but that's an awesome chorus chord progression and vocal melody - it's definitely got potential with the right production and instrumentation.Best of luck!tt
