A beautiful, yet heartbreaking power ballad, about a woman making an impassioned plea to her love not to leave her for another. This is another one of my "Reverse Karaoke" experiments, using a Celine Dion acapella vocal track.

Story behind the song
Recorded back in early 2015, this was one of the first songs out of Cygnus Studios.
I've been meaning to remix this for a while, since the original version was mixed down using only my low-end Tascam DP-008EX recorder that was here at the time, and long before I was using a DAW. Going back to do the remix, there wasn't much to work with... The drums were recorded using only two microphones (instead of my usual 8 nowadays), and the only other instrument tracks involved are a Fender Jazz bass, an Ovation acoustic, and a Gibson Les Paul. Remixed and edited using REAPER, I think it's orders of magnitude better than the original recorder mix.
Arrangements, all instruments by Craig Guerrieri.
Recorded, mixed and mastered by Craig Guerrieri at Cygnus Studios, Florida, USA. 2019.
Lyrics
Take me back into the arms I love
Need me like you did before
Touch me once again
And remember when
There was no one that you wanted more
Don't go, you know you'll break my heart
She won't love you like I will
I'm the one who'll stay
When she walks away
And you know I'll be standing here still
I'll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I'm the one who wants to love you more
Can't you see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
See me as if you never knew
Hold me so you can't let go
Just believe in me
I will make you see
All the things that your heart needs to know
I'll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I'm the one who wants to love you more
Can't you see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
And some way, all the love that we had can be saved
Whatever it takes, we'll find a way
Believe me
I will make you see
All the things that your heart needs to know
I'll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I'm the one who wants to love you more
Don't you see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
