Glenn Case
After You

It's late, I know
You don't like the cold
So, I will hold the door and go in after you

And, truth be told
I have gotten old
Time: Just where does it go?
Why can't it be renewed?

I was used to going first
There's things you can't rehearse
'Cause this life comes without a test run
And no questions are observed

Back when we met (We met and my life was changed)
I'd take extra steps (I'm sure you thought that I was strange)
Taking the long way around (And you'd be right, but it remains)
And, I'd be after you (There's no one after you)

You'd smile at me (You'd smile and I would just melt)
and my heart felt free (A puddle of my former self)
Friends said it was meant to be (I know that I required help)
That turned out to be true (There's no one after you)

I was used to going first
There's things you can't rehearse
'Cause this life comes without a test run
And no questions are observed

Love is imperfect
People get hurt
It's not blue skies and butterflies
but it's often worth the work

It's late, I know
It's almost time to go
Near the end of the show
It's sad but, it's still true

So, now I'm sure (Still, I'm not sure how this sounds)
It's not what I'd prefer (I plan on keeping you around)
But you asked nice a time or two (Don't you get in a hurry now)
So, I'll go after you (But I'll go after you)

[When all is said and done and we have reached the end]
[We had a real good run through all the curves and bends]
[I couldn't make this up if I would just pretend]

Lovely melodies, lovely singing! This conjures up Beatles, which is just about the highest song-writing compliment there is. With that in mind, I think the drums are too much. Which is weird for me to say, I almost always want more drums. I think these vocals and melodies are strong enough to be in the “Here There and Everywhere” category, and those drums are super minimal. This is awesome! Great song!
