Red face Songs You Wish You'd Written
List a song that you wish you had written. Or a couple of songs...!

I never liked Hall and Oates all THAT much...but there is a beautiful song called "So Close" on their Behind the Music CD. I think it was an unplugged live performance. If I could write a song about a woman, or a girl that's been in my life, it would have been this one.

There's no "I" in Teamocil
At least not where you'd think
(autoharp strums)
So together let's make a choice
And for once we’ll be in sync
/ Teamocil /
I never thought I knew you well
/ Teamocil /
But now I think we really gel
/ Teamocil. /

Teamocil is no longer available. Please try either Groupug, Bondat or consult your own Wellness Guide.

That's the one I wish I'd written.
