lyrics

In The Meantime

Well there you were
I thought by now you’d be miles away
I closed my eyes
Hoping to hear that you’d call out my name
I must be mad but I tell myself no
I must be crazy to let you go
And you just stared as you walked right on by
If you noticed me then it didn’t show
Babe….

I turned my head
Thinking to follow you but then
Instead
I just went home
And thought of the things that I could do alone
I must be right least I tell myself it’s so
Or else I’m crazy for letting you go
And though it hurst so deep down inside
Don’t want you top know cos it wounds my pride
Babe….

I’ve got no-one here beside me
I’m only thinking of you
Whatever happens in the meantime
Whatever happens in the meantime
I’ll be blue…

And so I try
To put you out of my mind but it’s hard
I sometimes cry
When I’m alone in my bed wonder why
I must be mad but I tell myself no -
It drives me crazy I’m letting you go
I want to call you but that would be wrong
I want to hold you the whole night long
Babe…

There’s no-one else here beside me
I’m only dreaming of you
Whatever happens in the meantime
Whatever happens in the meantime
I’ll be blue…
There’s no-one else here beside me
I’m only thinking of you
Whatever happens in the meantime
Whatever happens in the meantime
Whatever happens in the meantime….

credits

released September 3, 2021
Sadly the only name I can add to the credits is that of bass player John McKenzie (RIP). The drummer was a well known session musician whose credits included Cliff Richards, but his name was not recorded on any documentation that I have. Trumpets - likewise a fine session player but not documented.
