about

This song is about two succesful but driven people. They both are interested in getting together but at the same time they are focused on themselves rather than the other person.

lyrics

Is she truthful, is she bold.
Is she excitable or is she cold.
Is she kind, is she funny.
Is she after him or just his money.

In reality
she's a cynic so is he.
Go after her if you dare.
You won't find love there.

He's not happy, he's depressed.
He's not good but he's well dressed.
He's quite selfish and he's vain.
He smokes cigars and drinks Champagne.

In reality
he's a cynic so is she.
Go after him if you dare.
You won't find love there.

She's successful, she wants more.
She's so clever, she's a bore.
She works hard has too much stress.
She well knows she should drink less.

In reality
she's a cynic so is he.
Go after her if you dare.
You won't find love there.

He's sure ruthless, he's not nice.
He likes to win at any price.
He's quite mean has power to wield.
He can't relate but he's well heeled.

In reality
he's a cynic so is she.
Go after him if you dare.
You won't find love there.
You won't find love there.

about

Markham Monk Leipzig, Germany

I like all types of music.
American and British music have been my main influences.
I was drawn to Country music when I lived and traveled in the USA during the early 1980s.
These days I am mainly drawn to writing music in a easy listening country pop style although I also like writing in a slightly more country rock or pop rock style. ... more

Nostalgia brings a beautiful peace. Annika's songwriting is melancholic but comforting as with her singing, delicate and angelic. The Cello is heart melting and the vocal harmonies and guitar playing are enchanting. That's why I love this album. Angie Blue
