Story behind the song
This song has a very old history. During a hiatus with "The Third Half" members I began to work with Rory Caponigro's band. I had just bought a Yamaha DX7 and liked this nice little Electric Piano patch it had so I wrote the melody with it. Rory and I worked on it but never finished it and the bones of the song got packed away in my memory. When I got back working with Dave Joyner I let him hear the melody and he liked it so he wrote lyrics but the song never got past the other band members. So it got packed away again until one day Dave Joyner who always liked the song asked to re-record it with new Lyrics written for his wife for their wedding day. Dave sang the song live at the wedding with the very same music that is heard here. Two side notes would be that the Electric keyboard sound is not the DX7 because that keyboard had fried a year earlier. The other note would be that this song almost was never archived because the only copy I had of the song was on a cassette. The tape broke right at the end of the song and it sat in a box for years until I finally opened up the cassette and spliced the tape back together so I could transfer it to the computer. I lost one go round of the ending choruses due to unsavable wrinkled tape but at least I was able to salvage the main part of the song. If you listen at the end you will hear the splice as a minimal blip.
Lyrics
All of my life I've dreamed of this day That you'd walk down that aisle and shed some light on my life Time after time Life's an uphill climb Every time I think of love I've never found my own kind I am a man Whose heart's been hurt before Until you came along I was always alone My heart was hard And in despair My world was cold And I was scared But you saved from A life of hell Chorus: Always in my heart And always in my dreams The feelings deep inside I used to try and hide Never try to hide your feelings Whoa…Whoa…Whoa Always try to figure out Why love’s all we need To feel the love in you That’s what gets me through Now I know what it’s all about Love’s the key there is no doubt That’s what it’s always been about Chorus
