Oh, I guess that I'm doin' fine It's been so long now but it seems now That it was only yesterday Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away How's your new love I hope that he's doin' fine I heard you told him that you'd love him till the end of time Now that's the same thing that you told me, seems like just the other day Gee, ain't funny how time slips away I gotta go now I guess I'll see you around You don't never know, never know When I'll be back in town But remember what I tell you In time, you're gonna pay And it's surprising how time slips away

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone Let's pretend that we're together, all alone I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low And you can tell your friend there with you he'll have to go Whisper to me, tell me do you love me true Or is he holding you the way I do? Tho' love is blind, make up your mind, I've got to know Should I hang up, or will you tell him he'll have to go? You can't say the words I want to hear While you're with another man Do you want me, answer yes or no Darling, I will understand Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone Let's pretend that we're together, all alone I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low And you can tell your friend there with you he'll have to go

Listen to me, baby There's something you must see I want to be with you, gal If you want to be with me But if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night It ain't that I'm questioning you To take part in any kinda quiz It's just that I haven't got no watch An' you keep asking me what time it is So if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night I am just a poor boy, baby Trying to connect But I certainly don't want you thinking That I haven't got any respect So if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night It ain't that I'm wanting Anything you never gave before It's just that I'll be sleeping soon And it'll be too dark for you to find the door So if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night

Oh oh, yes I'm the great pretender Pretending that I'm doing well My need is such I pretend too much I'm lonely but no one can tell Oh oh, yes I'm the great pretender Adrift in a world of my own I've played the game but to my real shame You've left me to grieve all alone Too real is this feeling of make believe Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal Yes I'm the great pretender Just laughin' and gay like a clown I seem to be what I'm not, you see I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're still around Too real is this feeling of make believe Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal Yes I'm the great pretender Just laughin' and gay like the clown I seem to be what I'm not, you see I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're still around (Still around)

about

My dad taught me how to play the bass guitar when I was 8 years old (though he tells me I was 7.) He learned how to play the guitar several years prior (he was a bassist originally) and he taught me how to play many of the oldies (classic) rock and roll tunes from the 50's and 60's. To this day, these are the songs that I love best. Even though my father wasn't a singer, he did all the vocals back then until I gained enough confidence to do it myself. I supplied the backing vocals when needed. The bulk of these recordings were done in one day on a two track recorder they gave me, performed live at home (before we built our studio adjacent to the house.) I was 13 years old at the time. In 2016, at age 46, I overdubbed basic drums to the mix, finally completing the sound. None of these recordings are perfect, but that was never the point. We were just trying to record these songs live in one take. At age 15, I finally learned how to play the guitar and started writing my own songs. When my son turned 11, my father taught him the bass. A couple years later, we performed at live shows called THE POTATO(E) FINGERS with my son on bass, my father on guitar, and me on drums. We all shared the singing duties at the time. We recorded a few of these performances as well. So, for this album, it was truly a family venture. (2024 Remaster) --Wayde K. Brown

about

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
