I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...
... in the third chorus:
he's leaving traces
o'r many places
the ancestry clearly showing in the faces
he's leaving traces
instead of:
he will leave traces
o'r many places
the ancestry clearly showing in their faces
he will leave traces
It's not exactly clear who 'he' is. I was thinking of the old guy, yet it might just as well be the baby. I believe that the new version is more 'generic', i.e. leaving that decision open.
