something new

hey apples.

sorry I've been so not-posty, not-writey, and not-appley lately. My brother got married earlier in the year, and I was working on a book, and then I had surgery.... blah blah uninteresting junk.

What is interesting is that I unexpectedly wrote a song last week. Now that Dan (the bro) has moved out and taken his recording devices with him, I thought I was up a creek- until I remembered my dad's digital camera can do short film captures. viola. there is no mp3 recording, but it's youtubey.... so I present my latest apple pie, to the tune of "It's You" (lyrics below video).



It's You
words and music by Liza Swart

Whoa oh ho
Whoa oh ho
Summertime songs and summertime fears
I've got you on my mind
Things are much as they were last year
I guess I'm doing fine
But there's still one thing I don't know how to do
It's you
Whoa oh ho
It's you
Whoa oh ho

Looking at pictures to catch your smile
Look at you, laugh at me
Things were good, if just for a while
That's where I wanna be
But I know the truth, love, you know it too-
It's you
Whoa oh ho
It's you
Whoa oh ho

Here I am, I stand alone
Here I am, my heart, my home
It's only
It's only
It's you
Whoa oh ho
It's you
Whoa oh ho
