Description
This is a composition by Tobz, originally sung by his kid sister. The original song is found here : http://www.icompositions.com/music/song.php?sid=55652.
I loved the melody and its lyrics and it became an instant fave of mine. I imagined it being sung and arranged in a slightly different way, with a little more rhythm, drums, harmonies, and a male voice, so I asked Tobz's permission for me to interpret it my way. I maintained most of the background "woowooh" by the young girl as it had a haunting effect.
Thanks, Tobz, for allowing me to tinker with this song. I really love the result... hope you do, too. And yeah, I'm sharing it with the Macjams community. ;-)

Lyrics
SOMETIMES
lyrics and music by Tobz;
vocals and additional instruments by Leon
If I told you the world wasn't perfect
Would you leave me standing alone in the dark
If I told you that nothing was perfect
What would you do
Sometimes sadness is a darkness
Waiting to be used
Sometimes sadness is a darkness
Waiting to be used
Sometimes happiness is a gem
Waiting to be found
Sometimes happiness is a gem
Waiting to be found
If I told you there's no love at first sight
Would you leave me standing alone in the dark
If I told you that love grows on people
What would you do
Sometimes sadness is a darkness
Waiting to be used
Sometimes sadness is a darkness
Waiting to be used
Sometimes happiness is a gem
Waiting to be found
Sometimes happiness is a gem
Waiting to be found
[Bridge]
Misery... joyfully playing
Curiosity... fondling its wealth
Sometimes sadness is a darkness
Waiting to be used
Sometimes sadness is a darkness
Waiting to be used
Sometimes happiness is a gem
Waiting to be found
Sometimes happiness is a gem
Waiting to be found

What a great track. I loved everything about this piece, except for that one synth. Wonderful song, I agree with you on the woowoos, they added alot to the atmosphere of the song.
