Description
This one just poped up as I was sitting around strumming the guitar. The progression and lyrics just seemed to write themselves. I did a basic recording right then and then spent a week refining it.
As I got into it, I decided I wanted to try laying down some real French horn tracks, so, this is a first. I've toyed with recording the French horn before, but this is the first time I'm fairly satisfied.
Hope you enjoy.

Lyrics
How many times have you asked youself
Why don’t I get out of here
How many times have you asked yourself
why can’t I face all my fears
Seems when all’s been said and done
We leave behind a trail of tears
Seems like life has left behind
a long trail of wasted years
How many times have you lost youself
in thoughts of things that never were
How many times have you found yourself
feeling life is just a blur
Always looking for somewhere new
and someone new to pass the time
Always wanting things you can’t have
and leaving what you have behind
You find you’ve wasted
a lifetime wanting
and never seeing
the world around you
You find you needed
someone beside you
but you look around
and they’re gone
How many times have I woken up
and wished you were right here by my side
How many times have I looked at you
and seen the sparkle in your eyes
Seems to me like I will wait forever
never saying what I feel
Seems like something’s been left undone
I wait for life to seem more real
I find I’ve wasted
a lifetime wanting
and never seeing
the world around me
I find I needed
someone beside me
but I look around
and you’re gone
How many tears will we put behind us
before we move on past our fear
How many lives will we take to realize
Happiness has been right here
We find we’ve wasted
a lifetime wanting
and never seeing
the world around us
We find we needed
to find each other
but we look around
and we’re alone
Why don’t I get out of here
How many times have you asked yourself
why can’t I face all my fears
Seems when all’s been said and done
We leave behind a trail of tears
Seems like life has left behind
a long trail of wasted years
How many times have you lost youself
in thoughts of things that never were
How many times have you found yourself
feeling life is just a blur
Always looking for somewhere new
and someone new to pass the time
Always wanting things you can’t have
and leaving what you have behind
You find you’ve wasted
a lifetime wanting
and never seeing
the world around you
You find you needed
someone beside you
but you look around
and they’re gone
How many times have I woken up
and wished you were right here by my side
How many times have I looked at you
and seen the sparkle in your eyes
Seems to me like I will wait forever
never saying what I feel
Seems like something’s been left undone
I wait for life to seem more real
I find I’ve wasted
a lifetime wanting
and never seeing
the world around me
I find I needed
someone beside me
but I look around
and you’re gone
How many tears will we put behind us
before we move on past our fear
How many lives will we take to realize
Happiness has been right here
We find we’ve wasted
a lifetime wanting
and never seeing
the world around us
We find we needed
to find each other
but we look around
and we’re alone

excellent rock ballad. the horns, nice touch. your vocals fit this song
perfectly. the mix of the other insturments fit in there place well. even
though there wasn't much deviation on the drum loops, it really didn't
matter. greta song.
