Story behind the song
I remember writing this song on the day that I bought a new casio keyboard. I was feeling pretty low but for no real reason. However, the writing of this song purged me of all that and left me feeling hopeful. You'll see it in the lyrics!
Lyrics
Everybody Has Their Moments There it is the side of a man he wants to hide His very strength and competence is questioned and denied His tears are always private cause he can't be losing face An outlet for his sorrow seems to be a distant place! Chorus: Don't go thinking you are worthless Don't go thinking no one cares Everybody has their moments Everybody despairs Click your fingers, sense the rhythm Clap your hands and tap your feet Turn those blues into some sunshine Watch the sadness retreat. There it is the moment that a women tends to fear Perception of her partner like a fog which cannot clear She finds she's losing faith cause she cannot make him see The yearnings of a woman's inner sensibility Chorus There it is the friction and the giving of some ground A middle way or compromise, they knew it must be found Then people gather round them and the music starts to swing Lifting up their spirits it can take away the sting Chorus
