It is hard to believe how quickly time flies by and that this song is coming up to being 3 years old. The trouble is that there is never enough time to finish anything especially with having to live away from home.
Living away from home was the inspiration for this song and many recent others, with the intro guitar acting as a sort of metronome to my days and time ticking by with quiet verse giving way to the passion of the chorus.
Passion does drive us to some crazy places and in turn makes us a slave…
Verse 1
Shadows fall, the sun gives way.
Back at home, I know she waits.
Time ticks by
Its a long, long drive
She is my light when none remains
Verse 2
Love is all, that keeps me sane
In this mad, bad world, it is its only grace.
When we’re apart
it breaks my heart
I need to hear her voice
to know she’s safe
Chorus
Cause I love her, I love her, I love her, I love her
I need her, I need her, I need her, I need her
I want her I want her I want her I want her
To be here, to be here, to be here, to be here
I can’t think at all, she is in my veins
I’m no good at all, I am her slave.
Verse 3
Passion drives to a crazy place
the danger lines keep me in chains
As long as I know, as long as I feel.
Her love is for me, I’m keeping it real.
Cause I love her, I love her, I love her, I love her
Chorus
I need her, I need her, I need her, I need her
I want her I want her I want her I want her
To be here, to be here, to be here, to be here
I can’t think at all, she is in my veins
