Written and recorded in October 2010. The recording was filmed, and edited as a "videosong" for youtube. When you watch the video, you will see the live takes on this track (no miming!)
lyrics
Seems like a long way from home
Lost my way and I'm feeling cold and alone
And I can't find the road
I need someone to hold
For a little while
Boy met girl and the stars turned blue
The world can turn but I'll keep running after you
Can't tell up from down
to keep my feet upon on the ground
For a little while
And when we lost it all,
We never had so much.
Little one answered to the call
I'll be there for you, to break down the walls
Or catch you when you fall,
you know love conquers all
For a little while...
And when we lost it all,
We never had so much.
