about

I recorded this song in 2012 with Paul. We were trying out a few things and I was using my stage microphone instead of my recording microphone. Paul made a quick mix and then all the tracks were accidentally deleted. We weren't able to work on the song again before Paul's passing. This is the mastered version of the only existing version of "For So Long". It is quite different from everything else I've ever recorded. So here it is.

lyrics

I bite my tongue when I look at you,
When I look into those demanding eyes.
This photo there on the wall is not new,
Right in front of me it slightly sighs.

My hands haven’t touched you for so long,
I try to remember your tempting smell.
Far away your voice is whispering a song
That flows slowly through every starving cell.

We won’t give up, just wait a bit longer
All we went through will make us just stronger.
Quietly dropping tears fill my night
And I tell myself it will be alright.

We won’t give up, just wait a bit longer
All we went through will make us just stronger.
Quietly dropping tears fill my night
And I tell myself it will be alright.

It will be alright. It will be alright.

We won’t give up, just wait a bit longer
All we went through will make us just stronger.
Quietly dropping tears fill my night
And I tell myself it will be alright.
