There's Naught to Do
The sun was bright, and the sky was blue.
When you loved me, just as I loved you.
But it's turned dark, and it's raining too.
As we grew old, and a rift grew wide
Between intentions and our daily slide,
We barred our hearts cause our love had dried.
If I'm to blame, then I'm unsure why;
Though, can't control all my feelings awry.
Sometimes I love, but I make you cry.
The sun's not bright, and the sky's not blue.
You loved me once, just as I loved you.
But now we don't; and there's naught to do.

Thank you. I'm also trying to learn Ukulele during covid19. Something to do besides waste away.
@Petter I'm trying to master the C major and A minor scales, and C major chords. My finger tips feel like a porcupine shot quills into them, and muscles in my hand feel like I shook hands with Hulk Hogan. Maybe one day I'll learn a song or two. When I bought it, I had no idea a Uke was an instrument of torture.
@EdEarl Ha ha ha...you forgot that our hands are not as flexible in old age! I am making mask with the sewing machine (that I have used for 60/70 yrs) and my hands are not the same today! You might try putting your hands on a heating pad before you practice. Or any thing to warm them up first. Have fun!
Deeply emotional! Excellent in my book!
