Challenged myself today (14 Dec 2018) to write one song a day until my next semester classes start in late January. Also, I just joined tonight the West Coast Songwriters organization and want something for their monthly meeting ned week. I was walking home from work this afternoon, talking into my cellphone recorder, trying to put a different spin on wanting someone, and came up with the lines "He's leaving her, or she's leaving him" and thought of the opportunity and the risk involved because the lady might be hurting or mad at men etc. That's what inspired the song, but don't have clear music yet in mind oher than that is sounds more like a country song than anything else.
15 Dec Reworded it a bit for song flow and combined the two chorus endings. I usually make musical chord progressions for guitar, but I can here this song with more of a Floyd Cramer style country piano, like a Patsy Kline song.
