Backstory:

   This song could serve to celebrate almost any kind of a loving relationship. One that might have begun early in life, or one that maybe developed later on. Like many of my tunes, the song just came – perhaps “thru me”, rather than “to me”. It’s interesting when that happens. For me, songwriting is like an adventure. You never know when the next one will begin, or what surprises it might hold!                                                                                                                                                                                 

Lyrics:

                                                  
FOR ALWAYS AND A DAY

(music and lyrics by Dan O'Brien – © Oct., 2015)

1)
Time has a way of passing by
And leaving dreams undone, 
Because of things we let get in the way,
I wish I had you in my life
Back when I was young,
For your love gives my life meaning every day.

Refrain
If I could go way back in time,
I know just what I'd do,
I'd ask The Lord to fix it so -
I could spend each day with you,
From babies in a cradle,
To a rockin' chair for two,
I'll love you dear for always, and a day.

2)
It seems life's greatest blessings
Can hide behind a smile,
The way it was, the day that I met you,
How could I know, that little grin
Would lead me down the aisle
To a brand new life, and a world of love so true
 

Refrain
If I could go way back in time
I know just what I’d do,
I’d ask the Lord to fix it so -
I could spend each day with you,
From babies in a cradle,
To a rockin’ chair for two,
I’ll love you dear for always and a day

Ending
I’ll love you dear for always, and a day
