Alan D. David. Songwriter and performer in various musical genres. By trade, I am a lead guitarist. But, in recent years I have become more of a songwriter/comp
For over 40 years I played lead guitar and did back-up vocals in various country bands. It has been one of the greatest thrills of my life. But, these days I stay at home and compose songs, both lyrics and music. My writing style is much broader than just country music. I also write southern rock, a little blues, lots of smooth jazz and movie themes and even some latin music. I have been writing for about 20 years and hope to for quite a few more years.

Story behind the song
I wrote this for my dear friend, Di. I'll be reposting it in the near future with her vocal. It's just a work tape...far from finished!
Lyrics
Without You V1 Without you, the stars wouldn’t shine I’d surely go, right out of my mind Without you, the sky would be gray It would rain, in my heart every day I’d be so alone, God knows I’d be so blue I wouldn’t want to live without you V2 Without you, I wouldn’t have a thing The sun wouldn’t rise, the birds wouldn’t sing Without you, my nights would be cold Arms reaching out, with no one to hold I’d cry all day, and I’d cry all night too I wouldn’t last a day without you Chorus You are my destiny, you’re the best part of me You’re the life that breathes in me I just couldn’t live without you Instrumental Chorus V3 Without you, my soul would be bare Just pain and sorrow, everywhere Without you, my heart wouldn’t beat I couldn’t stand, on my own two feet None of my dreams would ever come true How could I ever live without you Repeat Chorus Tag I just couldn’t live without you
