about
Perhaps the only straightforward love song I've ever written, I wrote this song a number of years ago at the start of a new relationship. I'm pleased to say that the story has a happy ending.
The vibe for the recording was '70s soul.
lyrics
Suddenly, I'm half crazy
Didn't think I'd lose this heart of mine
Cause I know
I could never stand another sad goodbye
But there you are and I feel breathless
Wish that I could find some words to say
Cause right now
Every doubt and fear seems somehow far away
Chorus
And now I'm, holding my breath
Hoping to see
Just what this feeling will turn out to be
Holding my breath
Taking my time
Praying for just a little positive sign
With nothing to hide
And no detail left
I'm holding my breath
Is this a dream, please don't wake me
This is where I'm sure I'm supposed to be
And if you'll stay
We can turn this dream into reality
Chorus
My last love wasn't good for me
So I've been laying low
'Til tomorrow I've played wait and see
Not sure what this feeling means
But I'm ready to know
Chorus
With nothing to hide
And no detail left
I would do anything now
For just one night, with you
I would do anything now
For just one night with you
And I'm holding my breath
For just one night, with you
