pop rock adult contemporary ballad love song
Artist picture
An adult contemporary band, with influences derived from classic and progressive rock, pop, jazz, and even classical.
"Intermezzo" is what I call "my band" (really just me, some friends who can sing -- because I sure can't -- and some MIDI equipment). It is my vehicle for demonstrating my material. My material is probably best described as yacht rock. I am pleased to announce that I've created a DIstroKid account! You can view my HyperFollow here: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/intermezzo1/intermezzo Also, through my DistroKid account, my music is now also available on the following (among others): iTunes/Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/intermezzo/1582282477 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/24Smq4apfS2XM9zVS6qRZB Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09D9CTHFH

Story behind the song
Jim and I collaborated for a while (in fact, you hear him singing on some of my demos). This is a song that he wrote and that I loved. I asked him if I could do a MIDI sequence of this song, and he said yes. What you hear is the result. Jim O'Brien, vocals and guitar Ray Kim, keyboards and alto sax
Lyrics
ONLY YOU Words and music by Jim OBrien Verse 1: Every now and then, I write you a letter, And tell you how I wish that we could be together... But we never see each other anymore, And whenever I call, it seems youve just stepped out the door... Chorus: I wish you never had to go... I dont want anybody else to hold me, Only you... I dont want to live without you now... I never knew that it would hurt so bad... Verse 2: Every weekend, I think maybe I can see you... I would drive all day and night if I could just be with you... And this is the time you know, it wont get any better... Why cant we just run away, run away forever... Chorus: I wish you never had to go... I dont want anybody else to hold me, Only you... I dont want to live without you now... I never knew that it would hurt so bad... Bridge: Weve been together for so long... Dont throw it all away... Oh, I love you now more than words could ever say... Ever say... (Instrumental ad lib) Its okay, I guess, we will both survive... After all of the happiness, I just cant say goodbye... Chorus: I wish you never had to go... I dont want anybody else to hold me, Only you... I dont want to live without you now... I never knew that it would hurt so bad... Copyright (c) 1990, Jim OBrien
