From the recording Tired of Loving You
I wrote this back in 2012, then recorded it with my dear friend, musician and artist Greg McCullough. Greg plays some great slide on this one. I sing through the megaphone and play the other guitars while Paul Opalach plays bass, keys and horn parts (synth). On drums is cousin Darro "Sparkie" Sandler.
Lyrics
I used to believe in love at first sight.
Innocence lost on the very first night.
I heard that preacher say till death do you part.
Now I'm left standing with a broken heart.
I no forever is a long-time baby,
but when you say I do, that's not maybe.
Took me too long to understand you.
I just can't make you happy no matter what I do
So I’m tired of loving you,
And all the things that you put me through.
Said I’m tired of loving you,
And all the things that you put me through.
They say “try, try, ‘till you succeed”
Never said you’d make my poor heart bleed.
I’m not trying to blame, just stating a fact,
But when you love someone that’s no way to act.
So, I’m tired of loving you,
And all the things that you put me through.
Said I’m tired of loving you,
And all the things that you put me through.
Where did our love go?
How could we let go?
Didn’t my love show?
Didn’t it show?
We never could see eye to eye.
So now it’s time to say “goodbye”
But if black turns white and white turns black,
That’s the time I will take you back.
I’m tired of loving you,
And all the things that you put me through.
Said I’m tired of loving you,
And all the things that you put me through.
Said I’m tired of loving you,
Said I’m tired of loving you.
