Story Behind the Song
This song was recorded before Kevin joined the Sojen Audio Recordings team. Kevin's involvement on this song was strictly the mixdown. He somehow took my lame recordings and turned it into a decent production of the song. This is again a tune recorded on an 8-Track ADAT system. The song was originally written 13 years ago during the time in my life that my first wife and I seperated. So it is filled with pain and sorrow.
Lyrics
Tear In My Eye
(Jones)
I gave you my heart and I gave you my soul,
Still here I am out in the cold.
I gave you my love and you tossed it away,
Set it on a shelf for another day.
Devoted my life to our love,
But you left when push came to shove.
I gave you my love I devoted my life,
To your happiness when you became my wife.
Chorus
I promised myself that when you left,
I would not cry.
But now that you’re gone I’m standing here,
With a tear in my eye.
Some say love is meant to last,
That hard times will always pass,
That love will always prevail,
Those ideas are just fairytales.
But I am here and you are gone,
You stole my heart and ignored my song.
Hard times came and away you went,
Our love is gone like money spent.
(repeat chorus)
You left me once and destroyed me twice,
Should have listen to everyone’s advice.
I still remember the day we met,
From there our destiny was set.
To be my love to the day I died,
Was the vow you took when you were my bride.
But here we are many days have past,
Our love just couldn’t last.
(repeat chorus)
