Back Before the Day with vocals by Amy Hansen

Thanks to Amy Hansen for another amazing job on vocals! She totally brings this song to life. I'm so excited about it. This is the first "real" song I wrote last year when I got my new keyboard.

Before I get it uploaded on YouTube, you can listen to it on my myspace page.

P.S. Thanks to all of you for your positive, encouraging comments! I really appreciate it! :)

Back Before the Day

Music & lyrics by Shannon Sorensen

Vocals by Amy Hansen

As numbness overcomes me

My eyes stare straight ahead

I can’t go on without you –

This feeling suffocates my heart and head.

I gave you all of me –

Now there’s nothing more for you to take.

And all that’s left of me

Is a shameful existence of the girl I used to be.

…the girl I used to be

My friends tell me to forget you

That you’re no good for me anyway

A piece of me died when you said goodbye

And I don’t know how to survive this

My love didn’t die, just my soul did

…oh, just my soul did, aahhh

Turn back the clock then I can breathe

You said that you would never leave

What happened to the love, the trust and the devotion?

Alone my tears will bleed me dry

But you will never see me cry

Don’t you have one last thing to say?

Did you ever even love me anyway?

Your face is in all of the shadows

And memories of you haunt my mind

If you’re really gone then just leave me be

Release me from your grasp and set me free

Go back before the day that I ever let you love me

Before I let you love me

Back before the day I let you love me
