Don Tomlinson wrote or co-wrote every song on this website and without generative AI involvement. Every song on this website is the product of its original sound recording having been uploaded to an AI music site solely for purposes of changing the singer, updating the production, and sometimes even adding another genre (with lyrics unchanged and with melody changed only slightly when, for example, necessary to accommodate the different genre). Virtually all companies in the music licensing industry require all songs they license to have been 100% human written. All songs on this website were 100% human written. For comparison and other purposes, almost all the original sound recordings of these songs may be heard at www.solidsterlingmusic.com.

Lyrics

VERSE
I can see why you turned my head
The first time I met your gaze
And I can see why to myself I said:
“There goes forever and always.”
It took some nerve just to speak to you
Knees a little weak, but what else could I do?

VERSE
Now I can see why she loved you
And never wanted you to leave
And I can see why, oh, yes, she knew
You were just too good to be true
'Cause you left without warning and came to me
But will I wake up one morning feeling naive?

VERSE
Now I can see why I love you
You really are too good to be true
And I can see why I’ll be terribly blue
If you leave me for somebody new
So how do I keep you here by my side?
I’ll turn the world on its ear to keep you satisfied

SOLO/VERSE
Everything you are well beyond compare
You’re the answer to my every prayer
I will always love you, but can you say the same?
I guess time will tell if, for you, this was just a game

TAG
Yes, I can see why, I can see why…
