Funny Man
I had a male best friend in high school who was a year younger than me. We had a mutual fondness that really was a romantic relationship, but I could not commit for one reason or another. We did love each other and we made each other laugh. He actually went on to become a clown. Our touch and go relationship went on for years and years until I met my husband. There were times in our mid-twenties that the tables turned and I was the one presenting myself to him. He’d been hurt by me though and maybe had begun to prefer me being in the vulnerable role for a change. He was always traveling for work and I couldn’t follow him around. There was no way it could work, but he wasn’t happy when I decided to get married. We’ve settled into where we belong now, we’re both content. He has an incredible wife and he’ll always be my friend. This song was the only one I played and sang at the same time in the studio, and it’s my favorite track on this album.
