ARE YOU IN THE MOOD FOR A MELODY …THEN TAKE A MOMENT FOR YOUR SOUL TO BREATHE …FOR YOUR SOUL TO BREATHE. ARE THERE LONELY DAYS AND THEN LONELY NIGHTS …TO GO ON ANOTHER DAY …TAKES ALL YOUR MIGHT …TAKES ALL YOUR MIGHT

SO WHEN YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR …TELL ME WHAT DO YOU SEE... WHAT DO YOU SEE?

SECONDS GO BY BUT IT SEEMS LIKE A 1000 DAYS YOU FEEL LIKE DYING BUT NO …IN TIME IT FADES AWAY. SO IF IN THE MOOD AND THERE'S TIME TO DEAL …THEN TAKE THIS SONG …ALLOW YOUR HEART TO HEAL

SO WHEN YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR …YOU KNOW IT'S TIME TO FEEL FOR REAL YOU KNOW IT'S TIME TO FEEL FOR REAL_ …IT’S BEEN TOO LONG SINCE YOU LET YOU IT ALL GO …IT’S BEEN TOO LONG_ IT’S BEEN TOO LONG (4X) …ITS BEEN TOO LONG… IT’S RE-EE-AL JUST TAKE A MOMENT …SAID TAKE A MOMENT …TAKE A MOMENT …YOU KNOW THAT'S ALL YOU NEED …JUST TAKE ONE SMALL MOMENT

ONE SMALL MOMENT... JUST TAKE IT ...ONE SMALL MOMENT …JUST TAKE A MOMENT …OF YOUR TIME

SOLO 1

ARE YOU IN THE MOOD (2X) …(soft)… JUST TAKE A MOMENT …JUST TAKE A MOMENT_ (AB LIB)

SOLO 2

This song was an idea that went on to become a (9:22) extended jam never played again except by myself with an acoustic guitar backing track; I played electric and sang vocals live a few times after.

* The story: I had a drummer and bassist come over, hooked up 4 mics on my recorder (yep, just one for the whole drum kit), explained the song and chords, hit the record button (about 3 hours total; this is the 3rd take); the bassist and drummer then packed up and went home... never to return. To this day they have never heard this recording; well that I'm aware of.
