Story behind the song
I'm pretty sure we all do things we regret. What is especially tragic is when we don't get to correct a bad situation we've created. I just took it to another level and added a little imagination to where my character experiences redemption as well.
Lyrics
Me and Deb were in our prime Everything looked good I never stopped to think about What I never understood A moment’s hesitation is a lifetime’s long regret The strength of her compassion could not match my cruelty The first time that I made her cry was The first time that I lied The pain of that broken trust was Too Much To Deny Too Much To Deny Like the ones I knew before She never had a chance It wasn’t long before I’d broke Her spirit with my crazy dance I thought I’d buried deep inside what I tried to forget But what comes stealing back from there is so much more than that Every time that feeling comes Across my Bridge of Sighs What haunts me like a ghost I fear is Too Much To Deny Too Much To Deny Every man who does his time Knows wrong from right It’s not what you know but what you do That leads you to the light I don’t know when I knew but something’s not the same There’s something wrong, I can’t go on till I face my fears again because…. Everything I’ve tried denying comes Rushing back in spades It’s then that voice of conscience says it’s Too Much To Deny Too Much To Deny The rock that shields me from that mighty Rush of pain gone by is The One that brings my soul to bear… he’s Too Much To Deny, she’s Too Much To Deny
