Liner Notes

Some heartfelt words from Julie about her son, I identify with these words as my darling wife has undergone heart surgery in the past year and I am helping her though it.

Big EDM anthem with falsetto vocals, not really my natural range, that really stretched me a bit but with some electronic help I think it's OK.

The three part harmonies in the chorus were created from my vocal using Audimee AI vocal generation.

He's in it for the fight Julie, I hope he wins.

Love to you both.

Lyrics

A Literal Heartache

By Julie Arthur

It’s the middle again
Of the night so long
She’s wide awake again
Writing another song

About love and heartbreak,
This of another kind,
When her child is hurting,
It drives her out of her mind

CHORUS
There’s a hole that’s been fixed
In his heart from before,
More surgeries await,
There’s more heartache in store.

She tries to protect
His eight year old self
But wants him to build up
Self confidence, true wealth.

A literal heartache,
He’s had since birth
She shares it too,
Stealing much of her mirth.

CHORUS
There’s a hole that’s been fixed
In his heart from before,
More surgeries await,
There’s more heartache in store.

She would take his spot
For all he stands to face,
In this lifetime of his,
It should be her in his place.

But funny thing about life,
It doesn’t work out that way,
So this sleepless mother.
Will have to cry this night until day

CHORUS
There’s a hole that’s been fixed
In his heart from before,
More surgeries await,
There’s more heartache in store.

While more awaits this young boy
In his upcoming life,
He’s a strong warrior already,
His heart shines with a strong light.

Yes, he’s a strong warrior already,
He’s in this for the fight.

@billwhite51 Thanks Bill, I know things have not been easy for you either but for me music is very cathartic.
