Story Behind The Song
I wrote this for a girl . Oh well, that didn't last, but the song did.
Song Description
Another early 4-track, recorded in my studio/apartment in Fullerton CAL.
Tascam 244 with a midiverb, EV PE76 condenser mike, Roland drum machine, 71Strat, G&L SB2 Bass, and my Ovation electric legend {miked], I remember recording the basic rhythm tracks, and then taking the 55 down to Newport Beach for Thanksgiving with my friends. I

Lyrics
Once there was a time when I was just too young and free
I did not understand love, that is true
Falling in and out of love with every pretty face i'd see
Hurt some times but seemed the thing to do
Yes i'm older now, I'm wiser, hopefully
I'm finding myself lonely without you
So, tell me that you love me, I'll tell you I am yours
And forever faitfully
Cherish You
Lovers I have known have played such games of hide and seek
Clowns and Jugglers laughing, spinning dreams
With forever lasting promises
and incenceritys,
To leave my lonely sadness
Mutch too real
To have and hold, but wish not to believe, is tragic logic
For the happy fool
So, tell me that you love me, I'll tell you I am yours
And forever faithfully,
Cherish You
