Default Re: EYOTA

Thank you dj for the kind reply.
Yes I have thought of a Lyrical treatment, but unfortunately did not include that.
I think that lyrics are from the, heart and should convey your feelings and internal expressions. My thought pattern was “Not the one to tell”. As you may surmise, those lyrical ideas may not convey the spirit or pace of the song. Example:

I think you know.
Even Though
You said No
I’m sure it shows.

Your Squeezing me
Trying to compel.
I’m not the one,
The one to tell.

And it drones on. . . and on. . .and. . .
So, I did not include it. Maybe you have a better treatment for the melody. I’d be amiable to hear and include it as a supplement, if you care to try. Maybe, a co-authorship is in the future. I’m game!😎


PS: 'Eyota' is a Native Tribe of Minnesota. The Meaning of 'Mahk ee-weh' is "Great", taught to me by my 'Ohlone' Tribal friend, Joshua Treebear, a long time ago.

Humbly,
