Trading All My Nevers
Colleen Dillon
I wrote this song earlier this week, and reached out to the wonderful Greg Connor and SL Krell here to help me with the lead, rhythm and bass guitars to give it a nice country love song feel. They killed it!!!!!! Thanks to them both for making this one of my favorites.
Here are the lyrics:
Trading All My Nevers
© 2015 Colleen Dillon
When I’ve asked myself the question
Past times I’ve always said no
But since I met you baby
I don’t rightly know
So I’ll ask again this question
Would I change my life for you?
If you’ll just stay here with me
That’s what I would do
CHORUS
Because I’m trading all my nevers
For one sweet forever
With you, with you
With you, with you
With you, with you, with you
Yeah I’m trading all my nevers
For one sweet forever
With you, with you
With you, with you
With you
Well I’ve had it pretty fine babe
Good at living all alone
But now I see it’s better
Sweet love I’ve never known
I want to share some room here
Make more than a little time
We’ll age like wine together
Hearts tangling like a vine
I've been listening to these in the wrong order, haven't I? Love this version - only just spotted it - love the song anyway, but those slkrell licks (P90s again, Steve?) are to die for... Nice collab guys :)
Thanks to all the great musicians here at alonetone who give such positive feedback. I really appreciate everyone who takes moment to listen and provide encouragement!!!!
A rare treat to hear something upbeat and fun. It makes me regret almost all of our sarcasm!
this is one of your best Colleen..great collaboration...and I know I have said this before but you really remind me of Joni Mittchell!!! very good
This song is lovely! Wow!
