From the recording BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
This is the demo I did in New Jersey of the song below, that Cathryn eventually recorded. This song, when completed, was the one that 'told' me..."maybe I can compete in Nashville.." I moved 2 months later.
Lyrics
BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
SINCE I FOUND YOU I GET A FEELING SO WARM SO REAL I’M REBORN SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HEAVEN’S DOOR AND THE TOP OF THE WORLD
A STATE OF MIND AND HEART I NEVER KNEW
BUT THAT’S BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
I’D GOTTEN USED TO TAKING IT EASY IF SOMEONE HAPPENED TO PLEASE ME
OK, FINE...I’D TAKE HER OR LEAVE HER WITHOUT TRYIN’ OR SEEIN’ IT THROUGH
AND I NEVER DREAMED I’D THINK IN TERMS OF TWO
BUT THAT’S BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU I HAD NO PASSION
BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU I HAD NO DRIVE
YOU GAVE MY BARELY EVEN BEATIN’ HEART A THRASHIN’
SINCE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU I’VE BEEN REVIVED
I REMEMBER DAYS WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, LOVE’S SPELL THAT I WAS UNDER
WOULD FADE INTO A WHISPER DISAPPEAR INTO THE BLUE
AND I NEVER THOUGHT THAT LOVE COULD BE SO TRUE
BUT THAT’S BEFORE I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
