Mid-tempo seventies Americana song mourning love lost.
Story behind the song
"I wrote this about a dear friend of mine and his relationship with a woman with whom he fell in love and had a child with."-DAVE YADEN
Lyrics
I still remember that cold December
though she won't recall nothin' at all
Love letters and flowers, we made love for hours
she'll never forgive me for how we came down.
CHORUS:
You don't say you love me, now
You don't say you need me, now
My love, please came home, you can't cary this alone
But I will lay down my life to be with you
They'll tell you I'll leave you, that I will deceive you
never to trust me , that surely I'll grieve you
what's done is done and I'm still standin' here
give me a chance
I'll be your hero, your cover, your rock,
I'll be your shoulder to cry on
I want to be a family
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I'll be a father to my son, a husband to my wife,
and a man before my God
but you bought into their lies, you closed your eyes
you bought their lies.
