I met a 16 year old girl who had a great lyric so I put it to music. I hadn't seen her since 1987 and just got an email in 2011 so we recorded this song and it's a great country cross-over pop song.

Lyrics
Searching For Tomorrow
Verse 2
Staring at your picture. Wondering what went wrong.
Yesterday you were mine.
Time seemed to go so fast,
when we were in love.
Now tomorrow seems so far behind.
Verse 2
Now that you are gone there's no easy way for me,
though they say life goes on.
The moments that we shared you've shared with another lover.
I've been left so far behind.
Chorus
When the one I loved found another,
I had my head bent in sorrow,
but I've got to keep on trying
searching for tomorrow.
Ending verse
Today is a blur like a dream where I'm paralyzed.
My body's cold like a stone.
I'll just spend my time all alone.
Just spend my time searching for tomorrow.
