"Always" a Hook original

[Hook]

So what I like about this tune is this..the uke is only one, 3 chord progression (G  Em   C) in 6/8 time in a group of three but the lyric was written in a standard 4 pattern. The melody is also in a 4 pattern and gives the 3 chord progression the illusion of changing the chord progression which never actually happens. I don't know, I thought it was cool! Written this afternoon in a flash, recorded tonight on the MBR.
1 uke/vocal (stereo)
1 pan/delay uke(stereo)

Always

written & performed by Hook

I've always wanted direction
As long as I could do it my way
Ive always wanted a path
signs to show the way
Here we go again
and here we are my friend
and every way we turn
is the end

I've  always wanted a moment
One that would define
I've always wanted access to a world I've been denied
And here we go again
and here we are my friend
I wish I could see ahead
And know what's just around the bend

Exciting inviting
But I'm overwhelmed with sites and with smells

I've always wanted contentment
to be comfortable and be satisfied
I've always wanted success
I hope not just for reasons of pride
And here we go again
and here we are my friend
The world will spin and I'm sure the wind
Will try to knock us down again

This is one for the piepod .
A brilliant song recorded so well and crystal clear,I'm loving the panned echo uke.
A nice relaxing cool song hook.

Very nice Hook !

And the 3 vs 4 grouping works so well and makes it very cool.

Well done bro !

[Redler]

I just admire your creativity, again! Peaceful and enjoable music! Pan/Delay uke sounds fine!

[Farrell Jackson]

Well written song and lyric Hook. If you hadn't mentioned the 6/8 Uke with the 4/4 melody combination I wouldn't have noticed it at all because the song just flows along so easily. Well done brother!

Nicely done.

Yeah wouldn't it be great to know what's just ahead, around the bend, sometimes.

Quality sound recording and soulful vocals.

Love the mixing of the uke.

Just finding this one.  Thats a fine, fantastic song Hook.  I love your lyrics, I can relate for sure, and that uke sounds so fine.  Just about the perfect uke song.
