He thought he could marry the song in his head
Yeah, doesn't work...
Well, I've tried getting the lyrics, but they're nowhere to be found. I've even tried writing them down from the three versions on line, but no luck.
All I get is partial lyrics (no surprise there, as I have ear problems).
Still, I wonder if this song would fetch more listeners if it were re-done with clearer vocals. This number has plenty of potential and shouldn't be gathering dust. The old equipment doesn't do Ellen justice.
I'm thinking of "Long Black Veil." If we could get those J&B lyrics easier to follow, you might have a real earner.
Now we know Ellen can sing lyrics that are clear as a bell; she does it all the time. So there must be a way to tweak these J&B lyrics/vocals. Maybe a small decrease in tempo...
Who wrote this ballad? If it was Ellen, she should write some more ballad lyrics.

True love bears all things
I retweeted this:
You owe some people your absence.
I must explain: Sometimes that's the best we can do for someone we love.
But I am always in favor of reconciliation.

Oh really?
Two windmills are standing on a wind farm.
One asks, “What’s your favorite type of music?”
The other says, “I’m a big metal fan.”

Renewing an old acquaintance: Doc Watson
These sound like the original lyrics with other versions sounding as though they've been cleaned up. But who knows?

The great thing about lyrics is that being corny rarely hurts them -- if they are coupled with a good melody. When I see you, I see the ...

Apologies to our friend. You just never know what will spark the lyricist. Even with a good melody, somehow we don't think these lyrics ...
