Story Behind the Song
Artist Info:"I have dabbled in virtually every kind of music at one time or another. I'm a self-taught guitarist and I've played and/or sung in a variety of bands, both as a backing member and as a leader. I try to make my music full of contrast but not disjointed, complex but not overwhelming, catchy but not trite. I am currently working on my first solo album tentatively titled Mixed Messages."

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I haven't seen your face in a while
Suddenly here we stand
We ackwardly pause and fumble for words
Smiling the best that we can
You look down, avoiding my eyes
Asking me how I've been
[Chorus]
Well I'm ok, except for the heartache
I'm ok, except when I think of you
I'm ok, except for this hole in my life
So thanks for thinking 'bout me
But I'm ok
[Verse 2]
You say something 'bout your dreams coming true
I pocket my shaking hands
I watch your lips move and I smile and nod
Pretending I understand
It sounds like you're doing great these days
Well don't you know I am too
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm ok, except for the heartache
I'm ok, except when I think of you
I'm ok, except for this hole in my life
So don't you worry 'bout me
'Cause I'm ok
[Bridge]
I know I might seem unhappy
I know it might seem like I miss you
I know it might seem like I've got a broken heart
[Chorus]
But I'm ok, except for the heartache
I'm ok, except when I think of you
I'm ok, except for this hole in my life
So thanks for thinking 'bout me
But I'm ok, except for the heartache
I'm ok, except when I think of you
I'm ok, except for this whole in my life
So don't you worry 'bout me
'Cause I'm ok
