You can buy this single of Eric Geurts on Bandcamp:
You can call me up in the middle of the night and tell me that you love me no, you never meant to fight You can whisper my name or you can write it on the wall It doesn't really matter, nothing's gonna change at all
No, I'm not gonna feel blue over you
When the love is gone When the damage is done You've been lyin' and cheatin' denying and deceivin' Now there's nothing that can be done when the love is gone
You could use your charms and smile to touch my heart Try to make me weak and tear me apart And maybe I could spend another night with you But that would only hurt if you know that we are through
No, I'm not gonna feel the blues over you
'cause when the Love is Gone
When the damage is done You've been lyin' and cheatin' denying and deceivin' Now there's nothing that can be done
'When The Love Is Gone' molds rock and blues into a crunching, bite-sized pop song. With an easy-to-sing chorus and the unmistakable guitar influences of both Z.Z. Top and Dire Straits the song is a typical real-life love story. It tells the story of a broken relationship, infidelity and deceit, but ends with a humorous wink.
The chorus is a catchy sing-along but the words will immediately be familiar to anyone who has ever been confronted with adultery or infidelity in their own relationship.
Is there a way back after betrayal? Does the love seep away like water in a cracked jug? Can it ever be okay again? For some the answer may be yes, for others no way! And for others still, could they be persuaded to love again?
