Thief by Shani
This is a pure fictional ditty I wrote, in which I imagined a rustic jazz trumpet 🎺 solo… & as luck would have it, my hubby plays that, so we got to collab! This is storytelling of bygone days, reminiscent of old time saloon style music, with keys & brass. Take your hat off, kick your feet up & enjoy! & Thanks for appreciating original music & rhythm! 🎶

Lyrics
Gave my money 💰 to a Thief…
Then you walked right in.
You cannot cherry 🍒 pick your grief
It is baked right in… with other intricacies
like your winsome grin.
When one door 🚪 closes, one opens…
And you walked right in.
(Trumpet 🎺 solo)
If I had to do it all again…
well, you know I would.
The loss is less than the reward…
which is oh so good!
The irony in life is great, just as it should.
We cannot always choose our fate…
just try to do good.
(Trumpet 🎺 solo)
Karma takes care of the rest…
so we don’t have spite.
If we aim to our best, which is clearly right.
I lost all of my cash 💵!
Can you feel my grief?
But you’re the one who stole my heart♥️
….So who’s the real Thief?
🎺
