Story Behind The Song
I asked someone who was before me as a "ghost", why
did you leave?, To which they replied ; "I had to",and of course from what they showed me, not a good reason.
The next morning I took my girlfriend to work still thinking about this dream (appx.6:00a.m.)and went home to play my guitar and sing; which I did ,still thinking about the dream; Like it or not, all I could do was observe ,in a sense,and wish them well.
At 3:00 p.m. I picked my girl up from work and played her the finished arrangement, proud of what I had done, but that I had also discovered My "sound".
Song Description
I dreamt one night a loved one I didnt even know was gone was at the top of a staircase; already on the other side...

Lyrics
"FIGURE IT OUT"
I SEE IT ON TV
AND HEAR IT IN THE STREET
AND NOT TO MUCH I LIKE ABOUT IT
ID JUST AS SOON FORGET
BUT HERE I AM AGAIN
I HAVE TO FIND A WAY AROUND IT
(CHORUS)
WHY SUCH A HURRY
OVER WHAT NOW
NOTHING TO WORRY
FIGURE IT OUT
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE
IF IM A LITTLE LATE
HOW MANY MINUTES HAVE YOU COUNTED
AND AS THE HOURS PASS
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THAT
AND DID YOU KNOW IT WHEN YOU FOUND IT
(CHORUS) ---SOLO---
(CHORUS)
IF NOTHING I HAVE SAID
IS MAKING ANY SENSE
I REALLY DONT KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU
WHAT DO YOU THINK I MEANT
AS I CAN ONLY GUESS
I NEEDED SOMEONE I COULD TALK TO
(BRIDGE)
WHY ARE YOU WAITING WHY AM I HERE
STAYING OR LEAVING TELL ME MY DEAR
(CHORUS)
(CHORUS)
