One of the first songs I ever wrote. (circa 1999) Was intended to be a 'breakup' song, but the girl didn't hear it until long after. Music written by a friend of mine.
acoustic/vocal rock
Acoustic/Vocal Rock music with feeling, the way music should be...
Story behind the song
Written as a breakup song for a girl I was crazy over. However, she didn't hear it until long after we broke up. The song setup kind of looks at past, present, and future. Hard to describe, just listen...
Lyrics
V1: Baby I don't know how to say all the things I need to say. Me and you we've had our good times and lord knows we've had our bad. I still remember the day I met you, such a beautiful sight to see yeah, and now we're finally together. I wish to God it could stay this way.
C: But I've got my own life and you've got yours to live. There's no way that we can be together, we've already gone our separate ways.
V2: Now many years have passed us by, me and you we have grown old. So many things we've seen together - so many days we've spent apart. I'd give anything to hold you, but I guess some things never change. Yeah, I just want to hold you, but I've gotta move on now
C: Because I've got my own life, and you've got yours too live. And there's no way that we can be together, we've already gone our separate ways.
C2: I've got my own life (but I don't want to live without you) And you've got yours to live (you've got your own life now) And there's no way that we can be together (you know I wish there was) we've already gone our separate ways (our separate ways)
And I've got my own life (my own life) and you've got yours to live (live well) theres no way that we can be together, we've already gone our separate ways (so hard to say goodbye)
