New Song - "To Let" for Rachel Fuller
To Let - by yours truly
This song is dedicated to Rachel Fuller.
To Let
Words and Music by Gary Stockton
(1) I found a room to let
I'd like to fill it with song
There's time to come and take in the view
I smoke a cigarette
then crumple the pack
I'm gonna make up my mind down in Kew
(2) It's just a picture of you
a post and some words
not to be taken away
That's all that mattered
That's all that came
To my mind down in Kew today
(3) I found a room to let
with pictures and flowers
I come in here and get it all down
It's a kitchenette
With white sheet and shower
In the attic an old wedding gown
Within these words
is the mystery of a song
Within these walls
is a place where I belong
(4) Gonna wake up here
Don't you carry me home
Or send someone to take me away
I'll break a record
I'll be quite knackered
It's everything in heaven for art's sake
(5) I found a room to let
I'll never forget
How lucky I am to have you
Quit smoking cigarettes
Stub it out with a song
There's Ash in my mind down in Kew
Within these words
is the mystery of a song
Within these walls
is a place where I belong
This song is dedicated to Rachel Fuller.

Wow Gary!
What a sunny, fun song.
(and you sound SO British too!).
You've captured Rachel's spirit beautifully.
WELL DONE!!
(It is very catchy-and I love the bridge).
