Story Behind The Song
I had a lyric in my head triggered by a memory from over half a century ago. Yes I am that old! I had a vague notion for a melody but I was given a SUNO subscription as a birthday present so put the 2 together. After some experiments with the prompts the results were not bad. I cloned my voice (doesn't sound much like me though) and then added some real me and post production. A.I. is definitely here but, I suspect, like V.R. needs to evolve so just trying to use it constructively. OK I'll put the mirror down now. It didn't end well for Narcissus :-) Going to share this with the world on May 4th but previewing here because . . . Feel free to comment back. I'd love to hear your thoughts on my music and A.I. in general
Song Description
A casual juvenile encounter with a girl triggers those first crush feelings. They become over powering and the mood gets a little dark. Reality then strikes home and the realization that it was just a crush that will go nowhere.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't know you.
So why do I feel like I do?
I turned a corner in all innocence.
You were there was it coincidence?
You passed me, not a single mention.
How could you know you had demanded my attention?
[Chorus]
Perefect stranger.
A beauty deeper than your skin.
I'm in confusion.
How can I feel your hidden soul within?
[Verse 2]
I'd like to know you.
I hope your curious too.
For two days now, you have passed me by.
I don't think I even catch your eye.
Is there potential here? I need to know
inside of me a feelings starting to grow
[Chorus]
Perefect stranger.
A beauty deeper than your skin.
I'm in confusion.
How can I feel your hidden soul within?
[Verse 3]
I want to know you.
I think that it's starting to show.
This is more than mere distraction.
Don't want to miss the chance through my inaction.
How do I embrace my deepest fear?
and find a way to bring you near.
[Chorus]
Perefect stranger.
A beauty deeper than your skin.
I'm in delusion.
Must get to know your hidden soul within.
[Verse 4]
I need to know you.
Please tell me what I must do!
Things are starting to get out of hand.
I must confess to feelings I don't understand.
It was only days ago, I learnt you exist
but now these feelings I just can't resist!
[Bridge]
What started at that first impression, has turned into a real obsession.
I need to turn this thing around. Get my feet back on the ground.
If it is ever to be real, I must restrain the way I feel.
[Verse 5]
I don't know you.
So why do I feel like I do?
This is just a crazy flight of fancy!
And something that will never be!
I'll just pretend that it never occurred.
We didn't even trade a single word!
[Outro]
Perefect stranger.
A beauty deeper than your skin.
Such a sad resolution.
I'll never know your hidden soul within.
