Take Me Back Tuesday
What songs remind you of your first "real" boyfriend?
I don't know how much of a "real" boyfriend Gregg was...
He lied to me about his marital status...
But he is the first boyfriend that I associate a song with.
Also a guitarist, he was one of the very few people allowed to touch my guitars. He would always play and sing Del Shannon's Runaway for me. To this day, I can't hear that song without thinking of him...
Did you ever have a song that was considered "your song" when you were part of a couple or now?
No, I'd never ruin a song by associating it with a relationship...
Songs are forever
Relationships are not!
If you could dedicate one song to someone you love, what song would it be?
OK, you asked for it...
Here are the lyrics to the song that I wrote for Michael Schenker...
Sometimes The Angels
It's a cold heartless world where you live
All around you people take until there's nothing left to give
They just don't understand what's the cost
A broken heart and shattered dreams, your innocence is lost
No one ever stops to ask you why
And sometimes even the angels will cry
Sometimes even the angels may fall
Crashing down
To the ground
While others have it all
Sometimes even the angels will cry
Unforgiven are their sins
On broken wings they fly
Sometimes even the angels may fall...
It seems that there's no love to be found
And for every up you get someone always brings you down
It seems such a high price to pay
Lonely nights and empty promises, your dreams have gone astray
Your heart seems so empty again
But sometimes even the angels feel pain
Sometimes even the angels may fall
Crashing down
To the ground
While others have it all
Sometimes even the angels will cry
Unforgiven are their sins
On broken wings they fly
Sometimes even the angels may fall...
What you need doesn't seem to be there
You're only looking for some love but no one seems to care
No one ever gives what you need
A bit of love and forgiveness to happiness would lead
Easier it is to run away
But sometimes even the angels must pay
Sometimes even the angels may fall
Crashing down
To the ground
While others have it all
Sometimes even the angels will cry
Unforgiven are their sins
On broken wings they fly
Sometimes even the angels may fall...
Aren't you glad that this isn't an audio post?!
In your opinion, who writes the best love songs.
Michael Schenker, because when he writes on his own there are no sappy lyrics to spoil the beautiful music!
