Happy new year. A gift for you.
Why this song?
I could have used a lot more love - The idea behind the lyric seems simple. At first listen, it appears it is a lament where I wish I had been loved better and more often throughout my life.
That is not the case.
What moved me to write this song was realizing that I could have loved better. I could have loved more.
So many times, I should have used love first.
I believe it a proper sentiment for the year we are facing. I offer it here to you. A small gesture of my
gratitude to you all.
I wish you the strength to love in the year to come. May tolerance and empathy always be your preemptive move.
Gratefully,
Andy Prieboy
A Lot More Love
I've been walking all night
I've been walking 'till dawn
I've been a fool all my life
I never fooled anyone
And my summers have gone
And my winter has come
And the one thing that I'm thinking of:
I could have used a lot more love.
Right to the heart
And a left to the jaw
Bright were the stars
They were the last thing I saw
And I tried to be strong
And I tried to be tough
But I'm never ever tough enough
I could have used a lot more love
And when the moon comes up
In a pool of blood
I could have used a lot more love
