Losing Rittmo is hitting me really hard. I was blessed to have done quite a bit with him and also very lucky to have him as a friend. The reason I'm posting this is because he let me know it was his favorite (he actually wanted to put it out on a CD at one point). Besides the lyrics the melody was pretty much his idea. Now I know I could redo this with much better production but this is a tribute to Ritt.RICHARD I'M REALLY GONNA' MISS YA'.
Is there a backlash
for loving someone too much?
can you in a flash
become out of touch?
You're my whole my everything
the only thing I think about
Can one keep ones mind?
Being so,so confined?
chorus
I need me some elbow room
to spread my wings
that camera angle and that zoom
has bitten me with it's sting
elbow room
give me some elbow room
elbow room yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah
yes I do love your smile
and your eyes are so true blue
but you're cramping my style
with those constant I love yous
now I'm not trying to be mean
and I don't want to play the field
come on don't make a scene
I didn't say stop ,I said yield
repeat chorus
no need to go crazy
it's just you and me baby
no if, buts or maybes
repeat first verse and chorus
