Lyrics
CLING TO YOU

Back in the day, when I was young. 
I lived my life like I was the only one,
that ever mattered. Twas all about me.
I thought that’s the way life was supposed to be.

Seemed I was always missing the mark,
 like some old drunkard stumbling out in the dark.
I put up a false front, because of my pride, 
but I was hollowed out and empty inside.

I searched for love. I wanted to be free. 
No mattered how hard I tried it just eluded me.
I was a desperate man, this anyone could see.
Locked in a self-made prison, without a clue, without a key.

So there I was, at the end of my tether. 
All I could see ahead was more stormy weather.
Then somehow Your light, it pierced through the clouds.
I heard You speak, You called my name out loud…

You seemed like Someone I surely could trust.
I felt it deeply, and I knew that I must.
Right there I surrendered. You took my hand!
The fog then lifted. I could finally see land.

I wanted love… a love that would last;
and sweet release from the chains of my past.
You were the answer. You were the key.
Unlocked my prison door, and set me free!

Well ever since that bright shiny day,
I’ve lived for love, and to give myself away.
Nestled securely, in Your loving arms;
I fear no loss, I fear no harm!

As for the future, whatever it brings;
through it all it is to You that I’ll cling.
I’ll hold You tightly, and never let go.
Apart from Your love my life’s an empty show.

You’ve given me more than I can ever repay;
but I’ll keep on trying anyway.
From this moment, until my life is through;
I will always cling to You.

Yeah!

Hi Don. Gotta do FULL DISCLOSURE on the piano. All was played by me EXCEPT for the solo. For that I used a midi sample which I manipulated in places to make it fit my tune.
Glad you enjoyed this one brother!

It is an excellent blues rock number. The lyrics tell a lot about the importance of holding on to something larger than ourselves.

I completely agree Bernardo. Without something to inspire us, or to aspire to, life can get pretty pathetic.
All the best my friend!

Your songwriting skills are always impressive. And blues-rock fits your vocals perfectly. Great song (and piano hooks at the end of each line...).
