This song really makes me want to sing out loud even though I couldn't carry a tune if it was in a bucket with extra large handles. That does not stop me though I love music and I love to sing my poor kids have to suffer through every out of tune note.I just love his voice and he sure can put lots of feeling behind a song.
The first time I heard this song I feel in love with it.
It's been awhile since I could hold my head up high And it's been awhile since I first saw you And it's been awhile since I can stand on my own two feet again And it's been awhile since I could call you
And everything I can remember As fucked as it all may seem The consequences that I rendered I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile since I can say that I wasn't addicted And it's been awhile since I can say I love myself as well And it's been awhile since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do And it's been awhile but all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember As fucked up as it all may seem The consequences that I've rendered I've gone and fucked things up again
Why must I feel this way? Just make this go away Just one more peaceful day
And it's been awhile Since I could look at myself straight And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry And it's been awhile since I've seen the way the candles light your face And it's been awhile but I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember As fucked up as it all may seem to be I know it's me I cannot blame this on my father He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile Since I could hold my head up high And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry
