In a roundabout way it's about the obsession, over a superstar, that every teenage girl goes through at some point...

female singer/songwriter/musician from East TN
I am a solo singer/songwriter/musician from an abyssmal black hole of a town called Morristown in East Tennessee. I have played the piano since I was 6 and took up the acoustic guitar in October 2003. I like covering songs but I also write a few myself. I've played on open mic nights in downtown Morristown, The Acoustic Battles at The DownTown, open mics in North Carolina at Blue Mountain Pizza and hopefully some others soon. I have been given alot of support by the other local musicians I am currently a music and Spanish double major at Mars Hill College near Asheville, NC, and am interested in meeting other musicians around the area and possibly playing some open mic nights. I'd like to venture out into the world of gigs but I am on a college student budget and do not own equipment other than my guitar. So for now I'm stuck with open mics and things of the nature unless I can get a gig where amplification and such is provided. I put a lot of time right now into my classical voice stuff and will have a recital coming up in the next 6 months, but hopefully I can get some new acoustic stuff together soon. The songs I have on this page aren't of great sound quality because I record with my mic onto my comp, but it works well enough I suppose. Hope you enjoy.

Story behind the song
I think this is the second song I wrote on guitar... I've had many obsessions over guys and still do on occassion, as bad as it may sound...but I'm not ashamed to admit it...Every teenage girl, and probably guy as well, at least once, obsesses over some rock star and despite how unrealistic the relationship is fantasizes about being close to that star...it's just a natural part of human development in my opinion...so this song is from the point of a teenager who is obsessing over some superstar and feels that their relationship is actually real, or a lot closer to being real than is ever going possible...if that makes sense...
Lyrics
I wish I could touch you The way your song touches me Your voice reaches down into The depths of my soul Am I just another Face in the crowd to you Just another heart That you stole Do you feel my gaze beating down on you? As you sing a sweet melody... Do you realize in that heart of yours? Everything that we could be... I wish I could tell you All that I feel inside But just words can't convey All I feel I wish I had one chance To bare my soul to you To let you know that this Love for you is real Do you feel my gaze beating down on you? As you sing a sweet melody... Do you realize in that heart of yours? Everything that we can be... Can you feel... Do you know... That you have captured... My heart and soul... Do you feel my gaze beating down on you? As you sing a sweet melody... Do you realize in that heart of yours? Everything that we can be...
