Seems as I age I care so little for so much and so much for so little. This song is about all the things I didn't do, all the accomplishments I didn't achieve. Yet all the friends I've had and all the love I've known overshadows any regret.
It is presented here with Band in a Box, Reaper, Cakewalk, and Ozone 10. Dave Bell of Blue Attitude played the guitar, and I added bass and vocal.

I Knew What It's Like (To Be In Love)
When my life is over I hope you think of me,
and all the wrongs I've done forgive.
I never had a mansion. I never did enough.
But I knew what it's like to be in love.
Could've done much better with the gifts bestowed on me. Could've helped the world improve.
I never got promoted or earned a platinum glove,
but I knew what it's like to be in love.
Meaning in my life was not discerned with greed.
Love is all with you I need.
Others seem to gather all the riches and the fame,
but I just chased my dream in you.
I didn't build a kingdom; I never rose above,
but I knew what it's like to be in love.
