This was the last song my dad's friend, Ruben Rodriguez, wrote for me to record one day. This was back in the mid-80's. He said it's a love song about a man away from his lover and coming back home to be with her after drifting off on his own. I thought I wrote the entire chorus only, but my notes state I only wrote one line in the song, and it's been so long that I don't remember which line was mine. So, it's pretty much Ruben's original song.
This is song #112.

Recorded at The CELL BLOCK Studio in Auburn, WA.

lyrics

As I'm Walkin' Down The Street, Just Lovin' You Like You Were Lovin' Me,
Your Voice Came Soft And Sweet. My Poundin' Heart Just Loses Control

As I Wake Up From My Sleep, To Find Your Love So Warm And True.
I Can't Forget Your Kiss, Cause You Never Kissed That Way Before.

And I Just Had To Tell You, Only Time Would Tell.
'Cause As Long As We've Been Together, Love's Kept Us Doin' So Well.

The Tenderness On Your Face; I'll Take To War On Some Foreign Land.
Those Images I Will Take Of Your Hair So Wet From The Fallin' Rain.

And I Just Had To Tell You, Only Time Would Tell.
'Cause As Long As We've Been Together, Love's Been Doin' So Well.

I Know I'll Come Back This Way. For Just How Long, I Cannot Say.
If Destiny Paves The Way, It'll Be Forever Again Someday.
It'll Be Forever Again Someday, It'll Be Forever And Again Someday.

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
