Song Description
This is a re-record of a song I wrote when I was 14 and had just started my band. It was a BIG hit in Chicago at the time and sparked my songwriting. I recently re-recorded the song because the old demos were in very bad shape. I was asked to do that by an old friend who wanted to hear my old songs again and he was very sick with ALS. I got the remake to him a week before he passed. I actually produced a whole album of older tunes in a month for him.....

VERSE 1
Now, Saturday night is still a blur to me
Whatever I said I did not mean
I was feeling down and so frustrated
I was such a fool to make you leave....Oh, and........
CHORUS
You made me cry
You made me cry
For the first time in my life
VERSE 2
Now, I'm reason we're both sleeping alone
Staring at the shadows and our telephones
We have a love that burns so deep inside
A special love we can not hide .... Oh, and ......
REPEAT CHORUS
You made me cry
You made me cry
For the first time in my life
BRIDGE
I vow to do anything, baby
To change your mind
If you'll only open your heart up
It'll only be a matter of time
VERSE 3
Then I heard my telephone begin to ring
On the other end I heard you whispering
You said, "Come to be, baby.
All's forgiven and I'll be waiting.
Because, I need you here with me" ... Oh, and.......
REPEAT CHORUS
You made me cry
You made me cry
For the first time in my life
