Story Behind The Song

THE IDEA CAME TO ME WHILE ATTENDING A NASHVILLE SONGWRITERS WORKSHOP IN NASHVILLE. THE WORKSHOP WAS ON NETWORKING AND THE PRESENTER GAVE THE SUGGESTION "DON'T HIT SEND" WHEN THINKING ABOUT USING EMAIL AS A NETWORKING DEVICE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE 'WORKE

Song Description

WE'VE ALL BEEN HERE. MAD ABOUT SOMETHING A TYPED OFF A LONG EMAIL ONLY TO REGRET HITTING THE SEND BUTTON.

Lyrics

DON?T HIT SEND
Words and music by Stephen Amos

WELL I?M WRITING YOU THIS EMAIL CHECKING IT LINE BY LINE,
BECAUSE I SAW YOU OUT LAST NIGHT,
HUGGIN?ON A FRIEND OF MINE,
AND I KNOW I?VE BEEN WRONG IN THE PAST,
AND SOMETHINGS WE SAY WE CAN?T TAKE BACK,

YEAH BUT,
THIS TIME I BELIEVE I?M RIGHT,
I?M MAD AS HELL AND I?M JUSTIFIED,
I THINK I?LL JUST TAKE YOUR ADVICE,
AND TELL YOU HOW I FEEL INSIDE,
BUT THERE?S THIS VOICE INSIDE MY HEAD,
TELLING ME TIME AND AGAIN,
THAT UNLESS I WANT TO SEE IT END,
DON?T HIT SEND OH NO,
(OPTIONAL ADD IN 2ND/3RD CHORUS: ?I BETTER NOT?)
DON?T HIT SEND,

I?VE BEEN POUNDING ON THIS KEYBOARD SEEMS LIKE ALL NIGHT LONG,
YEAH I?VE HAD A DRINK OR TWO,
BUT THAT DON?T MAKE MY FEELINGS WRONG,
YOU?VE TOLD ME I JUST MAKE THINGS UP,
AND THIS LIFE?S ALREADY HARD ENOUGH,

CHORUS

I?VE BEEN SITTING HERE ALONE,
TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO FINALLY LET IT GO,

CHORUS
