Title: There Were Times (when you needed me)
Post by: The Gobi Desert Canoe Club on March 05, 2019, 09:27:51 AM
Hi all, had the treatment on the back, takes about a week to settle down so still a bit touchy. Good thing is I can take it easy recording so here it is.  Hope you enjoy.    Willie

I look into that mirror,
Not liking what I see
Just a shadow of the man I was
Just a shadow of me 

There were times when you needed me
There were times when I needed you
There were times we needed each other
But those times were so very few

See you staring in that looking glass
Just holding back the tears
Too scared to go, too frightened to stay 
Just too many wasted years

There were times when you needed me
There were times when I needed you
There were times we needed each other
But those times were so very few

Instrumental

There were times when you needed me
There were times when I needed you
There were times we needed each other
But those times were so very few

When love becomes a habit
It sneaks right up on you
But I would sooner have it
Than no love at all

There were times when you needed me
There were times when I needed you
There were times we needed each other
But those times were very few

Repeat chorus to fade

Beautiful ballad! Top class job with instrumentation (guitar and keys), sounds so good! Well written and sung as well!
