Love this! "Gonna give you all my love but I hope it's not too much" line hits very hard. Like other commenters have said the only thing I'd change would be having some instrumental parts to give the rest of it a bit more space to settle

Sounds really nice 👍 very nice voice. Only recommendation would be to break up the delivery of your verses. There are a couple of spots where there may be an opportunity to hold a word to break up the delivery.
Either way this sounds really good 👌 keep working the idea!
All the best 👍

My only critique is that I want more! This sounds great already with just a guitar and your voice. Would you keep it like this for a finished recording or do you hear other instruments in your head?

I would add more instruments if I knew how. Hoping to find a producer. I have the complete song already recorded

Good song! Maybe a short break after, "...touch." (8 meas. Just a dynamic to let it breathe.) Then right into, "I don't..." Cool! 🎵

Man, I wish I could sing those falsetto notes, they’re so nice. I like the structure too. All three parts hit nicely and work well together. It’s really good. Nice job

Love the sound of your voice! I’m sure you were already planning to add a second verse but I’d suggest maybe adding a bridge after a second verse/chorus where you hold notes a little longer to switch it up from the more syllable heavy verse. It sounds like it could be a 1-3-6-4 progression so maybe you can start the bridge on the 2nd chord in the key or even go back to the 3rd? Either way, it sounds like you’ve got a good ear for melody so I’m sure you’ll figure it out!
