Songs

(6/4 time)

(throughout the song, the beat will sound as though it is in 2/2. i.e. the strong beat will be every 3 real beats)
(each line represents 2 measures)
(slow intro)


It’s been quite a while now since I held you in my arms
But I can still remember that feeling so warm
And though it’s been a long time and I’m happy for you now
It’s just so hard to let you go

(Chorus)
‘Cause I still remember how you told me you loved me
Your embrace around me as I held you in my arms
And that feeling I felt growing deep inside me
Was it love? (ending)
(endings)
1st end(I don’t know…)
2nd end(I thought so…)
3rd end(Yes I know, it was love…)

(Harmony singing with section 2)

So many times I’ve wished I could be with you
And I wonder if sometimes you wish it too
Were they just empty words all those “I love you darling”’s?
Whispered to me, I thought they were true
Yet you’re gone now, with someone else to hold you
But my heartstrings are still wrapped around your hand
You pull and you tug till my heart falls to tearing
And you don’t even know what you’re doing

(Chorus 2nd end)
(short interlude)
(Accompaniment backs off)

Now I lay on my bed and stare at the ceiling
Trying to forget all the pain in my heart
Thoughts rolling round like mist on the water
Wondering why we have to be apart
(accompaniment strengthens and continues to do so till the end of the section)
I feel like I’m missing something important
Suddenly the realization breaks through
Maybe you did what you thought would be best (rit.,break at end)
(no accompaniment, singing stays slow, hold "all" out)
So maybe you really did love me after all

(Chorus 3rd end)

Yes I know, it was love
