lyrics

Way back in April two thousand and nineteen
I decided to write a new song every week
Yeah that was the challenge, I thought ‘could I manage?’
How could I maintain such an ambitions streak?
Would I fall at the hurdle?
Run out of ideas before mid-June? Way too soon

I then realised I couldn’t make it alone
I needed the help of some creative souls
I put out my plea - what sort of songs should I write?
In my heart was the hope it would be alright

Then the suggestions came in
A sigh of relief and a grin
Until I read them… things like

Write a thrash metal song about a unicorn
Write an homage to your three favourite cheese
In the style of Ariana Grande
Write a song about a cucumber called Terry
Who faces a dilemma
Who faces a dilemma
I’m facing a dilemma
I’m facing a dilemma

When I wanted to give up a voice deep inside me
Was telling me there was a reason to write
I had to keep going without ever knowing
If this tunnel ends with a glorious light
Now I look down the mountain
See how far I’ve travelled since the start
Can’t stop the music, it’s coming, I can’t refuse it
And here I am at week forty-three
I can’t believe it, improbable, but achieve it
You bet I will, it’s week forty-three
I’m on my way home
It’s week forty-three
Yeah,
It’s week forty-, week forty-, week forty-three
