A tale of two lovers seperated by death
Story behind the song
This was a bringing together of people who had the same goal...........producing a good song. Andrew reviewed the original Denis Couture's piano solo and added orchestration. Deborah sang the wondeful lyrics which Richard Roman had written and this is what materialised.
Lyrics
words by Richard Roman © 2008
In a piano bar
We first met and stayed til almost two
While dancing in the candlelight
I stole a kiss from you
Romantic songs of love
We danced to all of them
Every night we couldn’t wait
Until we dance again
If only I could change
One second in that day you’d be on your way
Safely through the light
And make it home that night
Had I known that day would be
The last time I’d have the chance
I would have told you that I love you
And kissed you as we danced
It would help to know
The reason why the blink of some one’s eye
Or the single tick of a clock
Decides who lives or dies
Fate will never tell
Her purpose in our stars
And why some roads we travel down
Don’t go very far
I never said goodbye
Or held you before you walked out the door
How was I to know?
It was your time to go
Had I known that day would be
The last time I’d have the chance
I would have told you that I love you
And kissed you as we danced
