Loretta

Song Description

Most of us had wanted ? or rather ? needed love to work out so much, that when it failed to be realised, we were left scarred, lost and confused. For the protagonist, he struggled to make sense out of what and why it happened. He began to write a song about it. Years later, he looks back to reflect on the lessons he had learnt about love and about himself. Finally, he finishes the song that he never got to finish, whilst he was in the midst of his bewilderment. After the pain of disappointment and rejection, a man?s heart finally heals.

Song Length 4:21 Genre Rock - Progressive Rock, Rock - Alternative
Tempo Medium Slow (91 - 110) Lead Vocal Male Vocal
Mood Engaging, Moving Subject Unrequited Love, Searching for Love

Lyrics

Loretta, in light of my truth, here I stand, alone to try and explain.
I?ll say the words in a way that is just and fair, controlled and right by you.
And I?m sorry, I?ve held on for too long.
But was there something wrong in believing in something that brought me peace in my mind, hopeful dreams in an otherwise obscure life?
Yea, I?ve held my right to believe it but the days had gone by when I need it,
When I hoped that this bird won?t fly away,
And love, once I find it, will it always be there to stay, may it never leave me.
But I guess it was?not meant to be.

Loretta, I?ve prayed for the day when you wake up one morning and know there was love here for you.
I ask you now, how have you fared? What have you done?
Can you still flash that smile that froze me once before?
Once, I?ve wanted more until came the day, when I just hung it by the door.
I hope that your life won?t be this way.
And love, once you find it,
May it always be there to stay,
May it never leave you.
But then again, that?s up to you?
