Love Is In The Things I Do |
LyricsLove Is In The Things I Do© 2012 Lyrics & Music by Bob Bentley Vocals: Emma Jane Verse One: You will never change But I've tried to be the best that I can be I am still the same But I know inside you're planning without me And any future's hard to see Chorus: Love, it's in the things I do I've always given mine Love, is different for you I must accept it's time Verse Two: Like many times before You expect me to forgive your sad affairs But there will be no more Now you've brushed aside the love we used to share And it's not that I don't care Chorus: Love, it's in the things I do I've always given mine Love, is different for you I must accept it's time Bridge: You, are all I've ever known I've given all I can To be here on my own Accepting all I am Chorus: It's in the things I do I've always given mine Love, is different for you I must accept it's time Verse Three: My heart will be with you But I'm sure the day will come when I'm OK Just have to see it through And a time will come when I can say That I'm over you Contact Information: Bob Bentley Email: bobbentley34@hotmail.com Website: bobbentleymusic.com Emma Jane: www.emmajaneofficial.com |
| Short Song Description: A poignant ballad about a relationship coming to an end |
| Long Song Description: The reluctant acceptance that a relationship is one-sided and coming to an end sung beautifully by Emma Jane |
| Story Behind the Song: The melody came from some instrumental work I was doing for a film project that didn't get off the ground. I liked the melody so much I sat down to write lyrics to fit the music. The idea of having to come to terms with the inevitability of a pending break up was inspired by the film project and it seemed to fit very well as a theme. I have been in search of a female vocalist who was prepared to take on the song and I'm delighted that Emma Jane agreed to an online collaboration to produce this version. Many people will have realised that in fact the first version was sung by me, not Emma Jane. This latest revision irons out some technical issues and adds guitar and a fuller orchestra to the arrangement, again beautifully performed by Emma Jane. |
