Midnight Rescue » by
lulupickles
I wrote a song, which I haven't done in a over a year. Without having my daughter's electric keyboard, I can't harmonize the music. I could record several renditions by playing my flute and merging them in a program, but it's easier to hear the mistakes on the keyboard. The lyrics to Midnight Rescue is mine. I modified them slightly to fit my story.
