Life Got In The Way

from Destination by Michael Lee

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    'Destination' is the latest offering from multi instrumentalist Michael Lee.
    Fans of Lee's previous work will be surprised with the change in direction with the new material as heard in the singles ‘Fools Rush In’, ‘Searching for the Truth’ and ‘Long Term Vision’. Lee's previous signature progressive rock style has been subsided to reveal a more soulful approach to his songwriting, which has led him to create some of his most honest, personal and commercial work yet.
    Lyrically the album is a collection of songs that deal with the universal topic of love and relationships as well as songs about making the most out of your life which is prevalent in the single 'Long Term Vision' as well as the title track 'Destination'. Musically the album is ambitious with its large instrumentation including a full brass section being featured on several songs.
    The combination of lee's personal lyric style and complex musical arrangements create a rich listening experience which can be enjoyed by a whole array of music fans from the casual listener all the way through to more discerning listeners who crave music with depth and substance.

about

This is the first track on the album and was one of the first to be written as well. The song is about the aftermath after a relationship breaking up.

lyrics

Woke up to the news that it’s over
She said it wasn’t me I didn’t owe her
But Tonight I’ll be tearing down the walls that keep me bound up inside Tonight I’m determined to find the reason why

(Chorus)
Cause I would give you everything done anything you want Took you to the moon let you lay among the stars
I’ll guess I’ll never get that chance
What are you thinking baby do you know where you’re at? Once I’m gone there’s no turning back!

Took me by surprise it was something I didn’t expect
I know we had our problems but no one’s perfect
But tonight, I’ll be staring at the phone it’s just a matter of time. Tonight, there’s only silence to accompany my cries

(Chorus)
Cause I would give you everything done anything you want Took you to the moon let you lay among the stars
I’ll guess I’ll never get that chance
What are you thinking baby do you know where you’re at? Once I’m gone there’s no turning back!

Are you happy now?
Tonight
Are you happy now?
This is it let the credits roll
I have nothing left to give you

(Chorus)
Cause I would give you everything done anything you want Took you to the moon let you lay among the stars
I’ll guess I’ll never get that chance
What are you thinking baby do you know where you’re at? Once I’m gone there’s no turning back!
