I'm posting my second song here, loved and appreciated the warm welcome I got from the first. This is a country type ballad "I wanna get you back" song. Thanks for listening and commenting. Kenny https://soundcloud.com/kfl44/chasing-down-a-sparkChasing Down A Spark Kenny Leverett © 2015 We were talking on the phone On a lazy summer night I could taste your velvet kiss Watched the lightning strike In the distance from my room Me and that lonely old moon Chasing down a spark Where once there was a fire Trying to get you back I’m walking on a wire Pray that in the ashes Something still burns Maybe some redemption From the point of no return And stumbling in the dark Chasing down a spark Held onto every word Listening to you breathe You seemed so far away Are you missing me We could find a way To make it last Forget the past Chasing down a spark Where once there was a fire Trying to get you back I’m walking on wire Pray that in the ashes Something still burns Maybe some redemption From the point of no return And stumbling in the dark Chasing down a spark Guitar: 362 Acoustic, Strumming Guitar: 542 Electric, Rhythm Dreamy Guitar: 1762 Electric, Pop16ths Arp

Kenny,
Nice one. A lot of nice phrases throughout the lyric.
I especially like the melody line on the first line.
Cool vocal.
I did keep thinking a bass (simple) should join in at some point...
Enjoyed listening.

Really, Really nice!! There is such a tangible, natural quality to your lyrics and your vocals. It is just really easy to listen to. Love the chord change with "walking on a wire". Cool title, cool concept, and excellent delivery in every sense! I do agree with Floyd that a bass would be a nice addition. I have a feeling you've been writing songs for a while. Much enjoyed! Take care. Greg

A good track, but like the others have said, I would have liked to see it build a little as it progressed.
Clever lyrics and well delivered vocal track.

Nice composition. Great lyrics and melody. I could imagine this song with an Alison Krauss/Union Station treatment based on the theme and your delivery here.

Hi Kenny, I enjoyed the listen. "Chasing down a spark" is such a great hook and you developed it very well through your lyrics. Regards, Noel

Nice hook and all around write delivered with a fine vocal. The mix sounded great on my monitors. OK, I'm a bass player so I gotta say "where's the bass man/lady?"  We enjoyed it! J&B

Kenny,
A wonderfully relaxing song, thoroughly enjoyed the listen.
I agree about the inclusion at some point of a bass line.
But still a beautiful song
keep 'em coming
