Wow, best track I've heard on the forum in a while: terrific vocal, outstanding song and very good production. Maybe I'm the only one, but I could use a lyric sheet. However, I've listened to it several times now and I think I've picked up on all the words. Probably my ears getting old. Anyway, once again, SUPER job!!
TuneMonger: Thank you so much for listening and sharing your encouraging words. The lyrics, if you are still interested in viewing. Na zdrowie!
I took pride in getting close while my feelings kept their distance
Got good at breaking hearts with skill and precision
Their tears were my trophies, their anger my joy
Thought a woman wasn't born who could tame this boy
Then all that karma came around
You lifted me up but slammed me down
CHORUS
The nights are longer than the days
I see their faces and my mistakes
The lesson you taught me has me down on my knees
Love wasn't what I wanted now it's what I need
What I need, yeah
I'd still be messing with their minds and affections
If you hadn't caught my eye and grabbed my attention
I finally was falling but you stuck to your game
Played me for a fool; put a link on your chain
REPEAT CHORUS
Seems I've got no place to turn, like water under the bridges I burned
REPEAT CHORUS
Ohh, oohh
REPEAT CHORUS
Love wasn't what I wanted now it's what I need
What I need, yeah
