| Description: |
Written in 2000 for someone.
|
| Notes: |
Written by David, not Anne-Marie. Yet.
That was a long time ago. Good Lord.
Written entirely using a Roland VG-8 and Yamaha Clavinova on a particularly dark night. One of my better completely improvised guitar solos at the end. Recorded in Cool Edit Pro.
This song, up until now, was heard by no-one except me and its intended subject.

| Lyrics: |
Are you drifting, or are you only sleeping
Is the flutter of your eyes a signal of faith
Or an unremembered dream
Never knew you felt this strongly
But I'd hoped you'd feel this way
If I could only ask you to remain
But I won't make you stay
I know it scares you just as much as I
Don't know what to do with what you feel inside
I only hope that you won't run away and hide
And you are so close but only out of reach
So I'll stand alone and ask tidings of the sea
And next time I'll make the same mistake
It's no crime to feel this strongly
It's not wrong to feel this way
I won't hurt you if you try to remain
But I won't make you
It's no crime to feel this strongly
It's not wrong to feel this way
And I won't hurt you if you want to remain
It's no crime to feel this strongly
It's not wrong to feel this way
I won't hurt you if you try to remain
But I won't make you stay
No, I won't make you stay
I won't make you stay
