Song Information:

This is a song done by myself and a fellow musician named Brian Scott in 1994. Brian was a young man of about 17 and just finishing up High School when I met him. He wanted to do recordings for his High School Senior project of some songs he'd written and asked me if I could help him.

The songs weren't really complete when he brought them to me, they were mostly just a rough verse and chorus, so I took him under my wing and helped him rewrite them into finished songs. Then we went into the studio and put together the music for them so he could sing them. He played piano on the three songs we recorded for him, and I did all the other stuff. Just so you know, he got a A+ on his Senior project for our efforts.

After he graduated high school we put together a due act using backing tracks recorded on DAT tape I put together in the studio for us to use. Then we'd play live guitars and sing the vocals and harmony parts on stage. We never got rich doing it, but we had a lot of fun and made a little money as well. On top of that, it gave Brian his first real experience playing professionally and hopefully helped him on his way to where ever the music takes him. The Duo was call Scott & Walker, simply because not many people can figured out how to say my last name correctly, so to make it easier to remember we chose that name.

After about a year and a half, Brian moved to Arizona to attend college so we disbanded our little duet and some years later I move to Arkansas and lost touch with Brian. I can't help but wonder what he's doing now, and if he still does the music.

Anyway, this is what I think is the best of the 3 songs we recorded for his school project.
It's a fast Country song that rocks and kind of reminds me of something Buddy Holly might have done. Brian, who has a gifted voice in my opinion sang the lead vocal on this song. I hope you enjoy it and thanks for listening.

Verse 1
I remember all those days, you wanted me to know.
Things like how you'd never leave me, Loved me so.
Now that, that's all changed, our love's at the end of the line
You wanna go our separate ways. Nows the time

Chorus
Rememberin' the way you used to touch me
You gave me that type of love, Wild and free
Then you lock away my love, and throw away the key.
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me, --- Baby
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me.

Verse 2
Do you remember in out past, the things we used to do,
Then we gathered all of them, Find someone new.
Living here without you, is not how it's supposed to be.
Told me our love would last forever, Lie to me

Chorus
