Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich?
Here's what she said to me
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
When I was just a child in school
I asked my teacher what should I try
Should I paint pictures, should I sing songs?
This was her wise reply
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will there be rainbows day after day?
Here's what my sweetheart said
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be
Que sera, sera
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich?
Here's what she said to me
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
When I was just a child in school
I asked my teacher what should I try
Should I paint pictures, should I sing songs?
This was her wise reply
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will there be rainbows day after day?
Here's what my sweetheart said
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be
Que sera, sera

Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.
Fortnight

The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Am I not the only one who heard this song first from Heathers?
Wonderful, song. The innocence is haunting in a way, and it feels like something is lurking just behind each lyric.
