[lyrics

I can't wait to sleep so I can dream
I can hardly wait 'til night time comes
And I don't know what all this means
I'm hoping I'm still your number one

And I can't tell if you're leading me on
Will I awake and find you gone
And in my dreams we're having so much fun
I'm hoping I'm still your number one

You say you'll always be true
And I always want to be with you

Instrumental

Repeat Verse One

Outro

I had a driver in another car tell me I was number 1 the other day... funny thing was he used the middle finger to do it....!!!

another lovely and really good song Will....and the guitar sounds great as always...almost a bit of southern rock guitar...to me...

oh yeah... I can't wait to sleep either...but mostly because i am working night shift these days...

Yeah this is awesome to produce this in a couple of hours. Really nice song, kind of Roy Orbison meets Tom petty. The guitars sound great as do your vocals, a really nice tone you have. Enjoyed listening.
Darren.

You're still number one for us Willie, this has all your usual classic hallmarks but I really like the tremolo guitar sound, that's very effective. Lovely lush guitars with great vocals and harmonies. Killer solo as well. What's not to like!

Nice song.   Sounds a bit like 90's country-rock, with a great lead tone. 


Any time you get a few hours to be creative and you make something, it feels like you Carpe the Hell out of that Diem, it's a good day.

Real quality on those shimmering, tremolo chords. And the lead guitar work is flawless. But it's the melodic songwriting that's so easy and pleasant on the ear. Radio-friendly pop that's impossible not to like.

Love the chord changes and it's true, impossible not to like. I love the bite you put in the lead tone.

You can knock this up in a couple of hours... not fair :)

Well done Willie totally recognisable as one of your tunes, but the guitar  break is magic, well done.
