about

I wrote this song for my husband who sings the 'bass' line in the song. He is my true companion of almost 30 years and has stood by me through thick and thin.

lyrics

The models in the magazines don’t make me weep.
Don’t need the botox, don’t need the lipo,
‘cause my lover, well, he goes by feel.

He’s my tall slender biking guy
And the wind won’t hold him but he stays with me
So when you see us rollin’ by
If you’re wondering what I’m about
Well check out the company I keep
And you’ll ask yourself how any girl can be this lucky.

The models, you know they don’t make me cry.
Don’t need the makeup, don’t need the hairdo,
Just need my man to hold at night.

He’s my fast striding running guy
And the road don’t hold him but he stays with me
When the hills are long and high
When I’m fading fast, when I’m losing speed
When I know he’ll match the pace I keep
But I don’t know how I ever came to be this lucky.

These models in the magazines they make me weep.
Baby, lose the air brush and lose the lip gloss,
Go find a lover who goes by feel.

He’s my soul soothing talking guy
And my whole heart listens when he speaks to me,
When the wind is at my door
When I pace the floor when I’m losing sleep
When I am the company he keeps
And he tells me all the reasons
He tells me all the reasons
He tells me all the reasons
I should be this lucky.
