Music: I’m here to serenade you….by me

Here’s a song I wrote years ago & sang with my friend Mary when we recorded this version – click here to listen & let me know what you think! (And you’re right, the lead part in the middle of the song is played on a bass….wahoo!)

 

Until It’s Time To Go, by Brother Ian (for you)

It’s been a long long time
Since I’ve sung a song that I could call mine
Been lost in a fog, chasing after a joke
Till the rain exploded all our dreams went up in smoke

Now all that’s over, it’s all been left behind
I’m here to serenade you, lemonade you all the time
Give you all I’ve got to give, sing you all I’ve got to say
Stay until the lights grow low, your eyes move slow and it’s time to go
Until it’s time to go

Many a song’s been sung & many a story told
All the lessons, all the pain all the gravel in the road
Behind every window there’s a door
Stay up late & sing one more
Until the time for leaving, I’m not gonna change the key

Now all that’s over, it’s all been left behind
I’m here to serenade you, lemonade you all the time
Give you all I’ve got to give, sing you all I’ve got to say
Stay until the lights grow low, your eyes move slow and it’s time to go
Until it’s time to go

The place is all empty & now it’s time to roll
I pack up my guitar but I know I’m not alone
When I come home to you & the things that you do
You sweeten my coffee with an early morning kiss

Now all that’s over, it’s all been left behind
I’m here to serenade you, lemonade you all the time
Give you all I’ve got to give, sing you all I’ve got to say
Stay until the lights grow low, your eyes move slow and it’s time to go
Until it’s time to go
