I’m tryin’ to get you off my mind, again. They tell me I’m a dreamer, that this love could never be. And now somethin’s tellin me they could be right, again. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. I put out the cigarette that I’m holding in my fingers, And now like the love between us, it’s crushed just out of sight. I know I’ll never hear your sweet voice again. I know we’ll never ever share another warm and tender night. Oh this café feels so cold, and I’m sitting all alone, I’m waiting for you, but you’re not gonna show. And the people who come and go, they could never really know How I’m breaking up inside. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. Everywhere I go I can see lovers walking hand in hand. Makin’ plans to be together, and sharin’ all they have. I look at what I’m left with, try to get my head around the emptiness. Is it all my fault? Am I the one to blame? Tell me it’s all a dream… a dream. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. Please don’t do this to me now, I’ve given everything, I did it all just to be with you. And now you’re not around, they say you’re leaving town. I’m waiting to hear it from you, I’m needing to hear the truth. Needing to hear the truth.

Is that you playing, or was that a BIAB part? Either way it is great. This is a radio song, I think. Sounds like a hit to me. Love the lyrics too. Very, very "real." Great work sir.

OP Mark Money Enthusiast Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 16 UK	Thank you for your comments Gianfranco - yes it reminds me of With or without you as well lol - it certainly didn't start out that way, it was much more of a slow ballad but I just love the "chugging style" and wanted to beef it up a bit, so just went from there. I think it still needs the the electric guitars boosting a bit and maybe a guitar solo but don't have any time to give before the contest end date.

To my ears, this composition is a very strong presentation on all fronts.... quality music! Regards, Noel MY SONGS... Audiophile BIAB 2025 audios on Soundcloud

OP Mark Money Enthusiast Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 16 UK	Thank you so much for the comments Rec, Alyn, Robert, John, Noel -at times I get deflated when mixing and arranging a song and hearing it so many times it's lovely to have opinions from "fresh" listeners. ------------- Alyn, not being a "musician" in the typical sense BIAB is my dream software come true - I always wanted to "create" songs from being a teenager but lacked the playing skills. Noel, I love to mix and match BIAB instruments with styles as there is so much variety and I can pick what I think suits the song I am trying to make. It's beautiful to hear so many different variations and how it can change a song (think studio album, highly produced and then doing a "live" acoustic/unplugged version. BAB has helped me take my songs to a totally new level that I have wanted to achieve since the early 90s :-O It makes all the difference with realtracks! I hope to have more songs uploaded in the not too distant future - dying to get them finished. Thanks again guys!
