about

The first of what I consider the "Simple" songs on the record. That being they only contain me singing over one instrument, piano or guitar. "Mine" was a simple song in an earlier version but I went back and added a few synths so it no longer qualifies.

This song revolves around only two suspended chords and only varies in the pre-chorus, and I guess the chorus too since it adds one more chord. "Million More Days" is just me singing over the piano and was recorded in one take. Though I did overdub one mess up on the piano and a couple times where I flubbed the words, which you really don't notice. I also didn't use a click track for this one like I did most others on the record, as a result I gradually speed up quite a bit through out and the end of the song is significantly faster than the start. I don't think it harms the song though.

lyrics

Million More Days
Written by: Martin Samuel Wells III

My world is feeling empty,
The birds have flown away.
Motivation’s gone for now,
The sky is turning grey.
I’m waiting at the window,
Leaning on the pane,
Yearning for your return
So you can tell me everything.

There is not a limit to the days that I will wait for you.

But I really miss you, and I just wanna see your face.
And I know every day my love for you will grow,
Cause I will wait a million more days
For you.

I know it won’t be long now,
I’m counting off the days.
The days will turn to hours,
And my heart will fly out into space.
Then when the time has come
To be with you again
I can’t help but see myself
Doing it again.

There is not a limit to the days that I will wait for you.

But I really miss you, and I just wanna see your face.
And I know every day my love for you will grow,
Cause I will wait a million more days...

And I really miss you, and I just wanna see your face.
And I know every day my love for you will grow,
Cause I will wait a million more days...
Oh, I will wait a million more days
For you.

A million more days

For you.
