Girls Make Life Worth Living
Robert Baitinger, a songwriter from Germany
For songwriters who dont sing or perform it is extremely hard to make ones mark in the music business because they dont have a platform to present and promote their work. This is more or less the situation that I, Robert Baitinger, a songwriter from Germany, have been confronted with since I started writing songs in 1978.
My idea is to complement my songwriting capabilities with the "helping hands" of excellent artists, musicians and innovative producers. In the age of the internet it has become easier to communicate and collaborate with musicians and producers all over the world. I am utilizing the internet and pursuing the idea of a conceptual studio band with a frequently changing lineup of artists. I call this project the "Rob B. Project" since I supply the melodies and/or lyrics of a song and other musicians/producers/songwriters contribute their talents and skills to make it come to life.
Story behind the song
I didn't grow up with country music but since living in Florida I've become very fond of that genre. I love the title of the song. So true.
Lyrics
Girls Make Life Worth Living
[Verse]
Woke up this morning, sun's shining bright
But it ain't the sun that feels just right
The way she walks in, lights up the room
I thank the Lord for the love that blooms
[Pre-chorus]
From the moment we met, I knew I'd found
A love so strong it shakes the ground
[Chorus]
Girls make life worth living, it's true
With their sweet laugh and eyes so blue
They turn hard days into something bright
Like a summer sunset on a country night
When they're near, all the stars align
Girls make life worth living, above all mine
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, above all mine
[Verse]
Down by the river, the wildflowers grow
She picks one for her hair, makes it glow
With a heart full of dreams, a spirit so kind
She's the peace I've been searching for all my life
[Pre-chorus]
From the moment we met, I knew I'd found
A love so strong it shakes the ground
[Chorus]
Girls make life worth living, it's true
With their sweet laugh and eyes so blue
They turn hard days into something bright
Like a summer sunset on a country night
When they're near, all the stars align
Girls make life worth living, above all mine
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, above all mine
[Bridge]
Here's to the girls, in their boots and jeans
The ones who make life feel like a dream
With every kiss, with every touch
They remind us why we love so much
[Chorus]
Girls make life worth living, it's true
With their sweet laugh and eyes so blue
They turn hard days into something bright
Like a summer sunset on a country night
When they're near, all the stars align
Girls make life worth living, above all mine
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, above all mine
[Outro]
Girls make life worth living, above all mine
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, above all mine
