This is a rock song I wrote when I was nineteen about a couple friends of mine’s rocky relationship, which lead to a very happy marriage for going on 38 years now.

Verse One

I called you on the telephone every night,

Wanting you to come home,

But all you wanted to do was fight,

All I wanted to know is what I did wrong.

Verse Two

You said our love shouldn’t be,

But baby you know thats not right,

You know I don’t want you to leave,

I need you to hold tight.

Chorus

So baby please,

Please don’t leave,

Don’t let it end this way,

Just tell me that you’ll stay,

Please baby don’t leave

Verse Three

I see you have your suitcase in hand,

Are you comin’ back to love this man,

Tell me one more time,

That your back again to let in the sunshine.

Repeat chorus

Repeat last verse and fade.

    Nice one, Randy! Sounds like a hit!

    I never knew how much I missed your song lyrics until now. Nearly everyone has been there at least once.

    I am glad to hear your friends have been happily married for so long now. I love happy endings!

    Another great one Randy! Looks like you need to get busy writing again, too!

    Love to Mary!
