about

Strangely enough I wrote this song for KD Lang to sing but then I never had a way to get it to her. It was producer Lora-Faye's idea to turn it into a duet, thus introducing the only female vocal on the record. Through the Spaghetti Sessions in Jersey City I had met my sister-from-another-mother Ariel Guidry and asked her to create the vocal character & interpretation of this song, which she did magically. The song starts in a mild energy zone and then builds and builds in intensity as it progresses.

lyrics

Love Me Right c. 2013 Sidney S. Whelan

Love
Love should
Love should give me
Calm

Love
Love could
Love could make me
Strong
Love could make me strong

If you would love me right
Not only for one day
Not only for one night
Oh baby love me right

I
I would
I would come
Along
I would come along

If you would love me right
Not only for one day
Not only for one night
Oh baby love me right

I will
Encourage you
You’ll find
The courage in you

Love
Love will
Love will give us
Calm
Love will make us strong

So baby love me right
Not only for today
Not only for tonight
Oh baby love me right
