Ever pined away for an old flame and wondered what might have been ? I have wanted to write this for a long time but I have learned to be patient and wait for it and it will reveal itself in due course. I hope you all enjoy "Blue Enough (For You).

BLUE ENOUGH (FOR YOU) Darrell Lee (Cowart) 5/19/11

YOU CAN’T EVER FORGET YOUR FIRST LOVE
THE ONE YOU GAVE YOUR YOUNG HEART TO
NO ONE WILL EVER BE THE GIRL YOU WERE FOR ME
LOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME, MY WHOLE WORLD WAS YOU
I THOUGHT I SAW YOU IN THE CITY BUT IT WAS SOMEONE ELSE
HER LONG HAIR FLOWING IN THE SUMMER BREEZE
LOOKING OVER MY SHOULDER FOR WHAT WE MIGHT HAVE BEEN
HAS LEFT ME BLUER THAN BLUE CAN BE

CHORUS
BUT WAS I BLUE ENOUGH FOR YOU
DID I TRY IN EVERY WAY
OR WAS OUR LOVE JUST WAY TOO YOUNG
I CANT CRY THIS HURT AWAY
IF I COULD GO BACK ONE MORE TIME
I’D TAKE YOUR TREMBLING HAND IN MINE
TO MY HEART, I WOULD BE TRUE
AND I’D BE BLUE ENOUGH FOR YOU

I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE DAY WE MET
WE WERE HANGIN’ OUT BY THE POOL
THAT GEORGIA SUN WILL REALLY MAKE YOU WANNA GET WET
WE KISSED A LOT, MAN WE PLAYED THE FOOL
THOSE DAYS THEY LASTED FOREVER
I’VE SPENT MY LIFE WISHING IT WERENT TRUE
I WANTED TO BE YOUR ONLY ONE
BUT WAS I BLUE ENOUGH FOR YOU

CH
YEAH WAS I BLUE ENOUGH FOR YOU
I SHOULD HAVE HELD YOU OH SO TIGHT
EVERYONE SAID WE WERE YOUNG
BUT DARLIN’ IT FELT SO RIGHT
WAS THIS ONLY JUST A DREAM
MY BROKEN HEART KNOWS, THAT IT’S TRUE
I GUESS OUR TIME JUST WASN’T RIGHT
BUT NOW I’M BLUE ENOUGH FOR YOU

WAS THIS ALL JUST IN A DREAM
MY POOR HEART KNOWS THAT IT’S TRUE
I GUESS OUR TIME JUST WASN’T RIGHT
IS THIS BLUE ENOUGH FOR YOU

……SO IF YOU CALL ME, CALL ME BLUE
‘CAUSE THAT’S JUST WHO I AM FOR YOU….

SUCKS !! SUCKIEST SUCK SONG EVER..SUCKER !!.....L.O.FREAKIN' L.!

Awww, I disagree with your clever bumping of your song!! LOL!!

This is a very pretty song and you sing it very well.

For me, and this is just my opinion as a singer, I would want the chorus to move along more so that it has move of a lift and diversity, I wouldn't have all of the rests between lines and I'd put a bit more inflection in there.

It is pretty as is, I just think a little more in the chorus would keep it flowing. Very nice song...Not sucky at all...

Tammy

Basically you are being punished for posting your lyrics in all caps -- ha, ha.

Hey, the singing sounds really good and the music is good, too -- so this is very enjoyable to listen to. Seriously, though, I won't bother to read lyrics that are in all caps (all lower case is OK, though).

Kevin

Darrell, I really like the melody and the melancholy way you sing this one. I think the lyrics could use some spit and polish, though. Could send you some suggestions later this week, if you're interested.

Hi Darrell,

This is the first song by you that I've heard. I really liked it. You did a great job singing--really brought out the feelings. The guitar work is pretty darn good as well. There might be a few changes in thel yrics--but everyone has a different way of saying the same thing. Lol very nicely done. take care,
Roger

Thanks Tammy, So you like my CryBaby impression do ya ? It does need polishing. Most of what I create I do not completely like but I actually liked this one for some reason but it does need work.
Kevin, Dammitt Man, the old "screw your song, your in caps" routine !! I didn't even think about that, seriously but I guess I know now....I almost got my feelings hurt lol !!
Tricia, Thanks so much !! I would love lyrical suggestions, Trust me, I can take it. I think the song can be built on and I wish I could hear it with a real production. Thanks for the listen !!
SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS !!

Yeah, I agree with Tricia, the lyrics sound too much like "I've heard it all before"
Tricia can fix it though. She's just back from vacation and chock full of vim and vigor
Wy

Wy, I'm not familiar with "I've heard it all before". Who does this?

A little bit slow for me but a nice lil ole song all the same, nice chord at the end, what was it?

Hi Darrell,

Nicely done.
Quite emotional !!

Thanks Mark, Calvin !! The note at the end was simply a C chord and lift the index finger (whatever that ends up being) and at the last second, hammer the index finger back on...I am a rock God !!lol!! I suck on guitar but the cool thing is that I know I do !!!

Darrell,

Nice job, man you need to make more music.

Kevin

Hey Darrell:

You've got a good voice for this, it's a pretty melody and it's got just the right vibe to it.

And, best of all, it's a wonderful hook.

In my opinion, the hook isn't fully utilized. He asks if he was "blue enough" but he really seems to be asking if he tried hard enough. If the chorus could be rewritten to focus on that hook line, I think you have something really killer here.

Might just be me - others didn't seem bothered by it. See what Tricia comes up with

But don't throw it away!

Scott

Thanks Scott and Kevin !! What folks do not know about this song is that I had a nickname in high school and guess what it was? Blue. So knowing that, You may see the lyrics in a different view.

Well, I like this alot, don't see anythng i'd change, like the lyric, the music and your singing...enough that i'd love to do a collab with you any day.....you could sing and do the music to any of my lyris ,....anytime.....

glyn

Please, Talk amongst yourselves...I'm a bit verklempt !! I appreciate that Glynda..wow. Hey my last post rhymes !! I wish I could tell the story very, succinctly about having the nickname but was unable to ? The recipient understood for sure but the public does not (which I'm o.k. with actually). It might be nice though to sort of explain the lyric a little better for broader consumption. I enjoy collaborating immensly and would welcome any new project. Thanks again to all !!
