Tulips
This song title comes up just as I’m away from my lovely Ineke for a week.
Tulips is a mushy love song I wrote for her, inspired of course by her Dutch origins. That’s all you need to know really. (If you listen don’t be confused by the use of her birth name Catherina, which I don’t sing correctly anyway … I actually prefer my original lyric anyway which is similar to the one written below the song). I’ve written better songs for her since to be honest. Ok that’s the excuses out the way.
Love is lots of things. The most important ones don’t sound particularly romantic - commitment, loyalty, dedication, patience, accountability.
But you’ve still got to add a bit of mush sometimes. Mush oils the wheel of love. Give her some flowers now and then. Give HIM some flowers now and then.
Won’t find many tulips around now. I got the best one anyway :)
But other blossoms are available.
