| Lyrics: | INTRO We always had blue skies Now I’m standing in the rain Watching you walk away… VERSE Today you said goodbye Without one teary eye You turned your heart around And left me under cloudy skies Thought I heard some thunder When you slammed that door Now here comes the darkness Bringing on a raging storm I still believe In you and me Love love, I’m caught up in the middle My tears fall down like pouring rain Don’t walk away, I know I gave too little When the goin’ gets tough Don’t give up on love If I could turn back time I would have walked that line Now you’re walkin’ out and all I wanna do is cry Don’t you see what we’ve created Is not that easy to find? Just have some faith Love grows deeper over time PC Chorus I’ve tried to build a life that’s gonna last So I hope and pray that you’ll come back Repeat Chorus |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
