about

Written by Steve Thomas / SMTunes 2006
Re-imagined in early 2021

Heavily influenced by my years long L.C. phase.
I tried to give him this one in fact.

lyrics

I tried everything else – can’t get another fix,
I called my number one on Bourbon Street,
Said nothing does the trick
I been up all night, my knuckles white,
This T.V dawn just goes on and on,
I tried everything else

I’m making my last stand down on my knees,
My first confession ten years late
Can you please find it in your heart again,
To give me one more second chance.

I tried everything else – what a disappointment
I was one prayer from leaving with Jesus,
But I missed my appointment
Will I awake from some dream I’m in,
Here in the dark, warm on your skin -
Not like anything else.

I’m making my last stand down on my knees,
My best impression ten years late
Can you please find it in your heart again,
To give me one more second chance.

I need one more second chance,
Baby please, one more second chance,
…because you know I tried everything else

Songs About The Weather

I was lucky to virtually meet Julian (of Armstrong) a number of years back. He sent me a very early copy of 'Weather'. It's great! I listen to it to cheer up after working on my own stuff...lol. SteveT & the Rough Edges
