Found this song in a forgotten folder (circa 10 years ago or so) - rescued with the help of AI stem separation

TELL ME NOW

The emotion I felt was anger

But really it was despair

All the times I felt you slip away from me

Though you were standing there

The sadness was long and maddening

Over the days and years

All the moments that beg understanding

Are lost without a care

Tell me now that you love me

Tell me now that you will show me the way

Through the darkest of moments

Lost in much brighter days

Tell me now that you need me

Tell me you'll take it away

Every moments a memory

Waiting for words that you don't say

Glad you found and dusted it down, its a lovely song well written and sung, little gem.

@jgkojak2 - well written.. perfect melody to go with the lyrics. I think everyone can relate to emotional detachment on some level

@jgkojak2 Love your song...eerie as your vocal sounds much like my ex of 18 years we were together: Downtown Lew Brown he got nicknamed; he's a brilliant lead guitarist as well as a songwriter. But back to your song. I really like the sincerity of it all. My favorite lines:

"Tell me now that you love me

Tell me now that you will show me the way

Through the darkest of moments

Lost in much brighter days"

Nice to meet you, too (I don't think we've met before)

Tons of emotion there.

"Looking for words that you don't say". Ouch. I think the narrator is in for further hurt!
