Story Behind the Song
I recorded two versions of this song because I was unhappy with the overall sound the first time. So after I recorded it the second time I listened to them both and ended up liking the first one better. Oh well. Maybe the second version will end up on a rarities CD for Peter Squires aficionados 30 years from now.
Lyrics
I have a face that cannot hide what I'm feeling,
pain that's so real is hard to conceal,
I wonder if you meant that I was the one,
back when our time was further from done,
I'm trying not to come apart at the seams,
hard as it seems to let go of dreams,
Your change of heart is now but look at the future,
when you are done, I could be gone...
I don't want to be here
I don't want to waste time
and there's no time left so your
best bet is to get while the gettin's good
Mine is a heart that's simply here for the breaking,
what did I do to deserve this from you?
Mine is a love that can be larger than life,
in brightness of day in darkness of night,
There are so many things that I have to offer,
take them from me take them for free,
Your back is turned your bags are packed and you're leaving,
so I will leave too and make my life better.
