	This is a song of starlight and desert moons, and wishing somehow I could turn back the clock. This is a ballad that Diana Ross wanted to do... but I ran away from Motown!(g) (Run run run run runaway...)

	Story Behind the Song If Time Were to Bend I remember the nights with you The silken delight of your skin And how close we really came To sharing our lives and even our names And maybe it's my imagination I've told myself things I want so bad to see But I would make you mine this time If Time were to bend And come 'round again 'Cos I remember the desert moon And starlight filling your hair Nighttime doesn't strike me now As being as lovely as when you were there And maybe it's my imagination I've told myself things I want so bad to see But I would make you mine this time If Time were to bendAnd come 'round again Words and Music by Stephen Paul © 1984 Built On Dreams Music (BMI) Lyrics This song pretty much tells its own story. I wrote this one while sittig on the edge of my bed at about 3 a.m. one morning. A friend had given me some mescaline and I wrote three songs that night! The year was 1976. I was 25, and this was originally an acoustic piece... My co-producer Rand, however, suggested that I give it a try on electric for a change, and so I did. That's my '65 Fender Jag with a special bridge I milled outta 303 stainless... tough track to cut. Enjoy it!
