Story behind the song
I wanted to record something like the Robert Cray/Johnny Copeland/Albert Collins "Showdown" record, mixing different guitar styles. My first attempt at a recording cordoned off the guitar styles better, but I like the groove on this later attempt better.
Lyrics
Now it may seem odd to sing the blues For the one I love But let me tell you, its the only way To let my passion get above It's about time I say how much I love you It's about time I get it right with you Now it may be strange it took so long For me to clear the air Just let me try to find the words That show how much I care It's about time I say how much I need you It's about time I get it right with you I've done you wrong every time I act like you're not there I could tell you how you've changed my life You're with me everywhere It's about time You learned that I believe in you It's about time I get it right with you
