Story Behind The Song
This was one of Jim and my first collaborations. We originally envisioned it as a ballad, but when I started working on it with Mike Lemmler in the studio, the groove put kind of propelled the song higher. The lyrics were inspired by my wife, who I can never thank enough for her love and constant support.
Song Description
Love song in the "old school" R&B/pop tradition. Cool groove and rich harmonies. Keyboard player Mike Lemmler provides a lush Hammond B3 to lift the arrangement. I know you'll like it!

Lyrics
Words and Music: Mark Carson and Jim McCormick
How is it possible
How is it fair
How is it logical that you're still there
What is the chemical
When mixed with the air
Makes you hold onto
This love affair
You can see what's on my mind
But we won't say it's over
When the load gets heavy
And the road begins to wind
Know that I'm not far behind
I'll give it all
My heart, my love, my life
I'll ask for nothing in return
Just to go through these years
With you right by my side
I'll give it all
I can feel it like a summer breeze
Your love knocks me to my knees
There's no better time of day
No telling where it's heading to
This love between me and you but
I think I've finally found my way
We can leave it all behind
But we won't say it's over
When the load gets heavy
And the road begins to wind
Know that I'm not far behind
I'll give it all....
And well run through the changes
Knowing that it's so hard to take
When the world slowly rages
We will have peace
In all the love we've made
I'll give it all....
