steveinsocal "...deliciously retro - steeped in the sound and style of the Sixties, from Motown to Merseyside - but remarkably vibrant and fresh, Deidre Muro expertly traverses both past and present, crafting timeless songs of love, heartbreak and a lifetime of experiences. All from a decidedly female perspective…"

One Night 03:53
People always ask how I knew you were the one for me How I could see clearly in such a crowded sea But when I travel back there To that moment in time, well it just flew right by me That evening I was caught off guard when you walked in No one could have suspected that this was happening Even I can’t explain it But I know that there’s only just one way to say it It only took one night to know that you’d be my lover It only took one night for me to fall in love with you And even in the moonlight, I knew there’d never be another It only took one night for me to fall in love with you Stumbling around for years, you know it brought me down Dancing dancing dancing in all the wrong places, just running around And when I finally surrendered I could see through the dark, there you were at the center And even though you’ve gone on, I still believe it was the right place at the right time The right place at the right time And now I know we’ll be together again, together again, together agin So until then, I’ll be here at the bar, telling anyone who wants to hear that It only took one night to know that you’d be my lover It only took one night for me to fall in love with you And even in the moonlight, I knew there’d never be another It only took one night for me to fall in love with you Now every day a stranger hears me say That in some typical way, we’ll meet again someday

Come On 03:08
It's hard to share you with anyone else I want to keep you close, keep you for myself Cause you and I are one of a kind It's such a lovely thing to find So if it's true that you are really mine Gonna take you away with me Somewhere that we can be As we are, it might be far Come on, baby come on Now is the time to run Won't be seen by anyone Don't be late cause I can't wait Come on, baby come on I'll wait outside your place later tonight Be quiet as you leave and we'll make it out alright So pack your things the best you can We won't be coming back again The time has come to execute the plan Gonna take you away with me Somewhere that we can be As we are, it might be far Come on, baby come on Now is the time to run Won't be seen by anyone Don't be late cause I can't wait Come on, baby come on Oh take me back to the place where I am from Oh take me back to the place where I am from Gonna take you away with me Somewhere that we can be As we are, it might be far Come on, baby come on Now is the time to run Won't be seen by anyone Don't be late cause I can't wait Come on, baby come on

Back In Time 04:34
Back in the summertime You owned my only peace of mind But you left, taking all I had to give Now in another life You’re back looking for my time But I won’t go down that road again So just keep on passing me, keep on passing me by Cause I know, yes I know you weren’t right Where you had to go I don’t know where you were and I don’t know Go on and say, go on and say Just say that you had never meant to hurt me bad    Cause I know, yes I know that isn’t true, yes I do What you chose to do Go on and say, go on and say, go on and say Had no other way to go, you had no other way to go cause I know it’s not true, it was up to you Back in the summertime No one could ever change my mind about you But now I’ve come to So just keep on passing me, keep on passing me by Cause I know, yes I know you weren’t right Where you had to go I don’t know where you were and I don’t know I don’t have time for your new intentions Whether you know or not, you had an effect on every day gone by Since you disappeared So many nights I had to be wrong Waking up and think your home Cause I know I’m on that road again So just keep on passing me, keep on passing me by Cause I know, yes I know you weren’t right Back in the summertime You owned my only peace of mind But you left, taking all I had to give

Which Way 03:01
I don’t care which road we take I’ll go as long as I have you right by my side I will go along You can lead the way You can pick the day I will go where you do Cause we can, we can begin again We can, we can begin again Taking our time to do it right Cause I won’t waste another night Take me to the place we met So I can take a picture and never forget How we were that day You can lead the way You can pick the day I will go where you do Cause we can, we can begin again We can, we can begin again Taking our time to do it right Cause I won’t waste a night Oh and for the first time I am in the right place at the right time And I’ll be staying here as long as I can Oh and baby this time I’ll be in the right place for a long time And I’ll be staying here, staying here

Are you gonna go with it? Are you gonna flow with it? I gotta know know know right now now now I gotta know know know right now now now Are you gonna go with it? Can you really roll with it? I gotta know know know right now now now I gotta know know know right now now now I see ‘em all downstream Where they can all believe That this is how it’s got to be It’s not for me, it’s not for me Cause I got a feeling that your feet are cold Well maybe I'm being just a little too bold to ask Are you gonna go with it? Are you gonna flow with it? I gotta know know know right now now now I gotta know know know right now now now Are you gonna go with it? Are you gonna roll with it? I gotta know know know right now now now I gotta know know know right now now now Sometimes you got to make a move When you don’t know just what to do That’s when you got to follow through With what’s in front of you I got a feeling that your feet are cold Maybe I'm crazy but I really need to know Are you gonna go with it? Are you gonna flow with it? I gotta know know know right now now now I gotta know know know right now now now Are you gonna go with it? Can you really roll with it? I gotta know know know right now now now I gotta know know know right now now now

I want to know why it's you haunting me I see your breath, I hear your feet I feel your body shadowing me I can't remember your face The song of your voice I can't place All the way through the back door of my mind You've come back after all this time I want to know why it's you haunting me Oh I couldn't let you go You're just an unerasable love, an unerasable love And oh, I guess I should have known You're just an unerasable love, an unerasable love I cut you up, I swept you out I used my hands to push you into the ground Our love was murdered and buried back then How has it come back from the dead again I want to know why it's you haunting me Oh I couldn't let you go You're just an unerasable love, an unerasable love And oh, I guess I should have known You're just an unerasable love, an unerasable love

Bad Day 02:14
Go and tell me bout the kind of day that you have had Get it off your chest and you won’t feel so bad Let me guess, everything went wrong that could have Would you say nothing went just as it should have? Everybody’s gonna have a bad day every now and then That’s why you gotta take the high way and pick yourself up again I know it seems the world has gone and turned on you But what a perfect shot to show what you can do So every time you get down, you gotta get back up That’s the only way we’re gonna get to the good stuff Everybody’s gonna have a bad day every now and then That’s why you gotta take the high way and pick yourself up again

Tell Me 03:29
I can’t meet your eyes whenever I try To ask if you notice it too This little feeling that something’s different An energy between you and me Oh I didn’t know, it didn’t cross my mind We were young, we had to go and take our time Now you tell me what I want to hear Am I dreaming, is this really real Cause you tell me, just tell me There was that one night out til the first light What a surprise locked in your eyes We shared the dancebeat, we ruled the backseat A kingdom for two, just me and you Oh I wanna know what’s going through your mind Say it to me slow and take your time Now you tell me what I want to hear Am I dreaming, is this really real Cause you tell me, just tell me I can’t I can’t believe it I can’t I can’t believe it But everytime that i see it I have to have to believe it I can’t I can’t believe it I can’t I can’t believe it But everytime that i see it I have to have to You tell me what I want to hear Am I dreaming, is this really real Cause you tell me what I want to hear Am I dreaming, is this really real You tell me, just tell me
10.
If you must go and leave today I won’t protest or stand in your way I’ll hold you close until it’s time Just know that I won’t say goodbye No final words from me I need something to believe So don’t look back if you should cry Just kiss me please don’t say goodbye I always knew this day would come The desert cried that it had won But only part of us must die If you just go and don’t say goodbye I’ll wake next to you again though I don’t know how or when It’s much too soon so we must try to say “so long,” don’t say goodbye
