This is a sweet love song with a nice melody. I really like the soft guitar, the harmonies, and of course the instrumental brass part in the middle, which I wrote when I finally got around to recording it years later.
lyrics
Been sitting down home with my friends.
Been singing those sad songs again.
About lovers who gave up too soon.
Lovers who gave up. Lovers who gave up the moon.
It's a lover's moon.
I lie down with you on my mind.
The sweetest girl I'll ever find.
I'm reason and you are my rhyme,
Love of my life. You're the love of my lifetime. I love you.
**It's our time to make it happen. Close your eyes.
I'll catch you if you stumble, trip or fall.
Our time, let's keep on laughing.
One more dance, doesn't matter if the music's on or off.
Been sitting down home with my friends.
Been singing those sad songs again.
About lovers who gave up too soon.
Lovers who gave up. Lovers who gave up the moon.
It's a lovers moon.
