NO TIME LIKE NOW


IF NOT FOR YOU
MY DAY WOULD BE AS EMPTY AS THE NIGHT
WITHOUT A GLOWING STAR TO MAKE IT BRIGHT
GLEAMING ON THE WATERS OF LIFE

AND IF YOU STAY
YOUR LOVE WOULD FILL MY HEART WITH LAUGHTER'S RING
MAKE ME WANT TO PLAY FOR YOU AND SING
I WISH I KNEW JUST HOW YOU'RE FELLING

I THINK WE NEED SOME TIME ALONE
TO SEE JUST WHAT WE NEED AND HOW WE FEEL
SO STICK AROUND 'CAUSE THERE AINT NO TIME LIKE NOW
TO START A LOVE AFFAIR THAT'S REAL

AND WITH YOU GIRL
THE STARS COULD BE A SINGLE STEP AWAY
OUR LOVE WOULD BE THE SUNSHINE OF THE DAY
A SPARKLING STAR WHEN SEEN FROM FAR AWAY

IF NOT FOR YOU
MY DAY WOULD BE AS EMPTY AS THE NIGHT
WITHOUT A GLOWIN' STAR TO MAKE IT BRIGHT
GLEAMING ON THE WATERS OF LIFE

I THINK WE NEED THIS TIME ALONE
TO SEE JUST WHAT WE NEED AND HOW WE FEEL
SO STICK AROUND 'CAUSE THERE AINT NO TIME LIKE NOW
TO START A LOVE AFFAIR THAT'S REAL

[Ferryman_1957]

Agree with Neil, this is a very nice track, nice guitar solo in the middle. Nice vocals, although I don't think they are the same as the lyrics you have in the comment above....

I just felt the backing instruments are a little low in the mix and could do with being spread wider in terms of the stereo image but it's still a very well put together and melodic song.

Cheers,

Nigel

+1 on what SwanSong and Ferryman say...

Lovely song (I'm slightly biased though: it's got one of my absolute favourite chord progression tricks - I've used it several times over the years myself, it's a joy to sing over, I have to stop myself using it too often ).

I completely agree with Ferryman on the backing instruments, but I can't figure out just what I'd want to change... I think I'd start by experimenting with the bass part, I kind of want more bottom-end from the recording, without losing the edge and the space that it has already.

But what a lovely song

[Bluesberry]

its very tender and sweet.  Yes.

[Gritter]

This is totally sweet...when that solo kicked in a turned to jelly. I get a Burton Cummings vibe here.

BUMP!
