“Know any… do I?” Shara let out a long-suffering sigh and starting playing arpeggios until she rolled her notes into a bouncing sort of beat that mimicked the way the band played. And then she began to sing, heartfelt and openly, though it probably helped that she was in a different room and no one was actively watching her play and sing.
Like a long lonely stream
I keep runnin’ towards a dream
Movin’ on, movin’ on
Like a branch on a tree
I keep reachin’ to be free
Movin’ on, movin’ on‘Cause there’s a place in the sun
Where there’s hope for everyone
Where my poor restless heart’s gotta run
There’s a place in the sun
And before my life is done
Got to find me a place in the sunLike an old dusty road
I get weary from the load
Movin’ on, movin’ on
Like this tired troubled earth
I’ve been rollin’ since my birth
Movin’ on, movin’ on‘Cause there’s a place in the sun
Where there’s hope for everyone
Where my poor restless heart’s gotta run
I know there’s a place in the sun
And before my life is done
Got to find me a place in the sunYou know when times are bad
And you’re feeling sad
I want you to always rememberYes, there’s a place in the sun
Where there’s hope for everyone
Where my poor restless heart’s gotta run
I know there’s a place in the sunOOC: https://youtu.be/0qe7U0mesoM
Nadine looked at Micah with a hint of awe as she tore the greens up into the bowl. Yes Shara played very well, but it was her voice. There was honesty in that voice.

Micah nodded in time to the music and smiled slightly as his wife sang in their living room. When she was done, he said without looking up “That. That right there. That’s why I married ya. You got a voice like Joni Mitchell, you know that?” and he looked at Nadine. “Joni Mitchell… you know her?”
Micah
Nadine slowly shook her head. “No, I don’t think so?” But definitely now she’d be looking her singer up.
From the great room, Shara called out, “And here I thought you married me for my rockin’ bod and high proficiency with weapons…” And she began to play something made up, just riffing on chord progressions.
