I needed to demo this song for something so Bruce brought Clayton Ivey in to play keys on it while I sang. It was the first time we'd met. Clayton worked his re-harmonizing, part-creating magic and I got to just sing over that. It was magic and we built the whole track around it later. Looking back now I realize that day was the beginning of this album.... Thanks, Clayton.

lyrics

I’ve been taking the long way home
Hoping it will clear my mind
Baby ever since you came along
I’ve been praying for a sign from above
‘Cause you feel like heaven
But you’re not the one I promised to love

CHORUS:
I’m not supposed to love you, baby, but I love you
Now tell me what am I gonna do
I got a burning deep inside and nothing can cool me but you
I’m not supposed to need you, baby, but I need you
So bad that I can’t sleep at night
It’s supposed to be wrong
But how am I supposed to fight
Something that feels so right
Baby you feel so right

There’s somebody at home a-waitin’
Lovin’ me the best he can
But he’s never moved me the way you move me
With nothing but the touch of your hand
I’ve tried to resist this feeling
But this longing for you won’t be denied

CHORUS

You found your way into a place inside where no one’s ever been
Once a blind man sees the light
How can he ever live in darkness again?

CHORUS
