TO THE LOVELY MISS GIBSON

about

This was a basic tune that I never fully fleshed out. It is very repetitive in structure but also a bit difficult to sing nearly exactly the same for about 2 minutes. This was one of the first of several songs I wrote about an ex-girlfriend of mine back in the 80's. I got the original idea for the song from the Looney Tunes cartoon "The Abominable Snow Rabbit" with Hugo The Abominable Snowman, when he says, "Oh, what a cute little pink bunny rabbit! Just what I always wanted. My own little bunny rabbit. I will name him George, and I will hug him and pet him and squeeze him and pat him and pet him and rub him and caress him and...so on and so forth. I always thought the skit was hilarious, whether as a child or an adult.

This is song #242.

Recorded at The CELL BLOCK Studio in Auburn, WA.

lyrics

TO THE LOVELY MISS GIBSON, I WISH YOU WERE MINE.
TO THE LOVELY MISS GIBSON, I LOVE ALL THE TIME.
IT'S THREE IN THE MORNING, IT'S TIME FOR BED.
IT'S THREE IN THE MORNING WITH YOU IN MY HEAD.
I THINK OF YOU ALWAYS AND ALWAYS IS TRUE.
I THINK OF YOU ALWAYS, OH HOW I LOVE YOU.
I CRY EACH MORNING WHEN YOU'RE NOT THERE.
I MISS YOUR SWEET TOUCH AND SMELLING YOUR HAIR.
IT'S TIME TO GET GOING, A TIME TO MOVE ON,
A TIME TO GET GOING, A TIME FOR SOME FUN.
I PRAY EACH NIGHT FOR WHAT I HAVE DONE.
I AM IN LOVE AND YOU ARE THE ONE.
WE HAD A LOVE, A LOVE TO BE SHARED.
WE HAD A LOVE, A LOVE TO BE CARED.
DON'T EVER LEAVE ME, DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE!
IF YOU SHOULD LEAVE ME, I'LL WANDER AND ROAM.
I'LL BE A NOBODY. I'LL LAY DOWN AND CRY.
YOU HAVE LEFT ME, OH GOD, I HAVE DIED.
YOU ARE MY WORLD AND YOU ARE MY PRIDE.
I SHALL BE THANKFUL WHEN YOU'RE BY MY SIDE.
WE'LL BE TOGETHER, JUST YOU AND I.
WE'LL MAKE LOVE BENEATH THE BLUE SKIES.
TO THE LOVELY MISS GIBSON I LOVE ALL THE TIME,
TO THE LOVELY MISS GIBSON, OH WILL YOU BE MINE?
WILL YOU BE MINE? JUST BE MINE!

TO THE LOVELY MISS GIBSON, CAN'T YOU SEE
I LOVE YOU? PLEASE STAY WITH ME!

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
