Backstory:
Kate this idea of a song and her first line was "all my life I've had a heart like a weathervane". It was a little biographical and it flowed pretty easily from there.
Lyrics:
Everything But Kind
Kate Ettinger/Sam Gyllenhaal (BMI)/John Cirillo (ASCAP)
All my life I’ve had a heart like a weathervane
Like the wind I can always count on it to change
Now I'm rooftop sitting by the riverside
With the water flowing on by
All it took was that come on look
To leave the oak trees far behind
Love is everything but kind
That smile was like a slow soft summer breeze
Oh, but it rocked me to my soul and dropped me to my knees
Why do I always seem to find the right man at exactly the wrong time
Add a couple more drops to this trail of tears; in the end they’re always mine
Love is everything but kind
Oh love,
Why you gotta do me like this
Come on, love
You can keep your empty promises
All your highs and your lows
How you come and you go
I’ll be lucky just to get out alive
Love is everything but kind
All my life I’ve had a heart like a weathervane
You’re that restless wind always causing it to change
