Solid original reggae love song
You can't know how good the vibe is unless you hear it. Im all about the music. Constructive criticism is welcomed. Im always down for making the sound better.
Started out playing rhythm guitar in New York for the reggae group Lion Force in the early 80s. Toured the US extensively for 7 years doing gigs in various cities and colleges.The band lasted until the beginning of the 90s. After the break up I turned to production which I continue to do now on a daily basis.
Story behind the song
a story expressing the importance of two lovers forgetting the past and moving towards the future
Lyrics
[Intro Ad Lib]
i'm home at last, oh baby
forget the past
[Verse 1]
i wasn't looking for a love this deep
just something simple i could keep
but you walked in, calm and sure
turned my half heart into something pure
[Chorus]
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching. i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
[Verse 2]
we move like waves upon the shore
no keeping score, no closing doors
just real love in a simple way
choosing each other every day
[Chorus]
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
[Verse 3]
no grand entrance, no loud display
just steady truth in what you say
and from that moment, clear as day
i knew this love was here to stay
[Chorus]
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
maybe heaven wrote your name in mine
long before we crossed that line
every step that led me through
was guiding me straight to you
[Chorus]
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
this is not a moment, this is life
you're my fire, you're my wife
no more searching, i'm home at last
future strong, forget the past
[Outro Ad Lib]
i'm home at last, oh baby
forget the past, oh honey
