    I wanted to write a love song. This song is really more about longing, though.

    Story Behind the Song
    This song represents the debut of my new recording hardware and software. I now have a more powerful PC, a better sound card, a pre-amp, a multi-effects pedal, and Sonar by Cakewalk. This song is also the first one in many years in which I attempt to play an actual guitar solo. I actually played 3 solos on top of each other, which sounded better. I'm not exactly Hendrix reincarnated, but I tried to make interesting mistakes, at least.

    I remastered it once to correct some tiny audio problems, but I can't tell whether it sounds any different, since the problems never were audible on my system.

    Lyrics
    Love is the sun which lights our world
    I've been stumbling in the darkness
    Waiting for the dawn
    Why is the night so long?
    I've been shivering since the twilight

    Alone now with the stars
    I don't know who you are
    But I'm thinking of you just the same
    In lonely times like these
    I'm hoping that the breeze
    Will whisper to me your name

    It's all the same
    When I'm losing the game
    I need a name
    Then I'll be winning again

    Love is the sun
    Love is the moon
    I'm looking at the stars
    And I'm hoping that you are looking, too

    Love is the moon which moves the tides
    I've been stranded in the shallows
    Waiting for the sea
    When will it come to me?
    I'm so tired of being stuck here
