Hello forum friends. Happy New Year to all!! Last fall, while listening to music from my favorite source (the forum), I heard an instrumental by Al David called Maybe Next Time. It had this sweet kind of country rock, Eagles vibe. I immediately was inspired by it and re-created "the band", using some of the chord changes and wrote a lyric, using Al's title as the hook. I emailed Al and told him and he was so gracious and encouraging. He helped with the arrangement and guitar solo and gave me some feedback on the mix. He was humble about his contribution but he wrote the title and created the vibe. The rest was easy. We'd love to hear your feedback on it. Hope you enjoy. Take care. Greg

MAYBE NEXT TIME

Well, I heard you were moving away
I heard you’d be traveling on
I guess there’s no more reason for you to stay
Now that everything that held you is gone
And when I think about you it breaks my heart
Guess there’s no going back to the start
Our road’s at the end, but I’ll miss you my friend
Will love ever try to be kind?
Maybe next time

I’m not sure quite how love got away
I don’t think anyone was to blame
A few careless steps and we lost our way
And somehow things were never the same
I wish I could go back and make it right
Cause I’m missing you like crazy tonite
Baby I can’t undo what’s between me and you
But I hope that what you need you will find
Maybe next time

Maybe next time we’ll see what’s beyond the bend
See that fork in the road before we come to the end
Maybe next time we’ll see when the hurt’s begun
And stop before the damage is done

Well, I guess I’ll leave the past in the past
Really nothing else I can do
But I swear to you whatever may come to pass
I’ll never find another like you
And when I think about how good my life could be
It’ll always be your face that I see
That’s when I knew love, what dreams are made of
When I look back from the end of the line
I’ll know this was my time
