New Collaboration between Stan Simons/Lyrics and Colleen Collins/Music. Colleen made this demo after composing the melody. We met online at www.Tunesmith.net .
Country Hits for ordinary people.
Monster Hits is my Soundclick.com page for my latest demos. I'm a regular poster to JustPlainFolks.org and Tunesmith.net on the lyric forums. My screen name at both sites is: LyricMosaics.
Story behind the song
Just a simple little song with a James Taylor flavor, except written from the feminine perspective!
Lyrics
Once We’re Together
Copyright 2003/Stan Simons ASCAP, Colleen Collins
[V1]
Sometimes he drags his cares around just like a semi trailer
When he finds her love’s a lie, he’ll be cryin' on my shoulder
I'll tell him that with time, pain can turn into pleasure
‘Cause life holds more for him than just stormy weather
And in time I’ll hold him in my arms, and there he’ll find shelter
Yes, ONCE WE'RE TOGETHER, …he’ll be fine
[V2]
I'll make him tea while he's with me and talk of things to savor
And then I'll put some music on, maybe some old James Taylor
And when he feels the evening breezes blowin' from the coast
Maybe it will dawn on him that, he can let her go
And in time I’ll hold him in my arms, as we dance together
Yes, ONCE WE'RE TOGETHER, …he’ll be fine
[V3]
Last week we drove while listening to “Carolina In My Mind”
Smokey mountain misty pines held perfume in the air
I'm almost feeling sorry for her ‘cause she lost one fine man
And when he's finally over her, he’ll wear my wedding band
And in time I'll hold him in my arms, I know he’s my shelter
Yes, ONCE WE'RE TOGETHER, …we’ll be fine
[Fade]
Yes, ONCE WE'RE TOGETHER, …we’ll be fine
...We'll be fi-ne
