A rock ballad; also what one might expect after Don Henley tunes have been the musical selection for an entire week of the daily commute to work. Copyright (c) 2013, Dan Parks. All Rights Reserved.
(Verse 1)
Where did I hear this before?
You say it over and over, again and again.
Oh why don't you give some more
Of all the things that you promised way back then?
(Chorus 1)
I try so hard,
Try to give you all the love in the world!
"It's not enough," you say to me.
Girl, what you looking for!?
(Verse 2)
My heart's been broken before.
Reminders of love we had, of the love we knew,
Lie scattered all 'round the floor.
We've got to try to repair what's been torn in two.
(Chorus 2)
It seems to me,
That if we don't find a way to agree,
Then someday soon, alone in your room,
You'll be missing me.
(Bridge - guitar solo)
(Verse 3)
You know I'm not keeping score,
But is it still me and you against the rest of them?
Before I walk out that door,
I wish you'd tell me what I can do to help us win.
(Chorus 3 & repeat)
'Cause if we do
Maybe clouds will break and skies will turn blue.
But if we lose, then maybe we two
Won't be together 'no more.
I try so hard,
Try to give you all the love in the world!
"It's not enough," you say to me.
Girl, what you looking for!?
(Ending - guitar solo over bridge chord progression)
