About the song
This song started way back in 2000 on the RMMS (rec.music.makers.songwriting)newsgroup as a collaboration with Joe Williams but has only just been completed after finding the talented Linda Moore who has breathed life and soul into the song with her expressive vocals.
Great job guys!

Lyrics
Vocals by Linda Moore
I've won a battle, but I'm losing a war
The shots that you fire, I can't take any more
It's not bombs or bullets that I fear
Cold eyes are killing me when you're near
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
This pain I've hidden, burns deeper with time
The taste of my tears, is the bitterest wine
When your 'phone is busy can't bear the sound
Oh where's the lover I thought I'd found
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
You say I've changed, but I've loved you from the start
I'd change my whole life, to recapture your heart
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
[guitar solo]
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
I've won a battle, but I'm losing a war
The shots that you fire, I can't take any more
It's not bombs or bullets that I fear
Cold eyes are killing me when you're near
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
This pain I've hidden, burns deeper with time
The taste of my tears, is the bitterest wine
When your 'phone is busy can't bear the sound
Oh where's the lover I thought I'd found
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
You say I've changed, but I've loved you from the start
I'd change my whole life, to recapture your heart
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
[guitar solo]
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
And it wouldn't take much to make my day
A touch or a smile goes a long long way
I feel so lonely when you're not around
Why can't we find some common ground?
