I wrote this quite a while ago but was never completely satisfied with the recordings. It never made it to my other "albums" but I did make a video to showcase it on Youtube.
In the beginning the song featured a guitar solo, but I never liked its so I junked that track and added the Hammond organ part. I still can’t believe I played that solo myself, although it was definitely not recorded in one take. The beauty of recording using digital audio workstation software is that you get to fix your mistakes
lyrics
All my life I been waiting just to love you
Hangin’ ‘round and wastin’ time for sure
I never knew a time when I was happy
but I never knew ‘til I walked in your door.
You opened up my eyes to the future,
You gave me all that I’d been searching for.
You showed me that my past was truly over
and now I can’t see wastin’ time no more.
The time has come for You and Me
I ain’t wastin’ time no more. (x2)
You pulled me out of darkness into sunshine
I was very nearly blinded that’s for sure.
You held me in your arms and loved me sweetly.
Even when I left you cryin’ at the door
You opened up my eyes to the future,
You gave me all that I been searching for.
You showed me that my past was truly over
and now I can’t see wastin’ time no more.
The time has come for You and Me
I ain’t wastin’ time no more. (x2)
SOLO)
My life was like a ship lost on the ocean
Your love a guiding lighthouse on the shore.
Your arms became my sweet and gentle harbor
The calm amidst the vi’lence of the storm.
That’s when I knew I could be with you forever
‘cause you’re the girl that I been searching for.
That’s when I knew my past was truly over
and I can’t imagine wastin’ time no more.
The time has come for You and Me I ain’t wastin’ time no more.
The time has come for You and Me I ain’t wastin’ time no more.
