Barry's fourth album and reaching his peak. A #6 ranking with 4 singles, 2 of them top 10, with Looks Like We Made It going to #1, but not my favorite. That would be the beautiful Weekend In New England, penned and done by Randy Edelman. Not sure whose version I heard first, but I love Barry's. Reba McEntire also did this song, which I thought was rather good. I'm sure others have covered it too. Randy had a brief, but dismal recording career of his own, before moving to scoring films. The other standouts on here for me were the title track and Daybreak, one of those uptempo ones. Only one throwaway.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - Say The Words
Best Track - Weekend In New England
Last night, I waved goodbye
Now--it seems years
I'm back in the city
Where nothing is clear
But thoughts of me --holding you
Bringing us near
And tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearning end
And when
Will I hold you again
Time, in New England
Took me away
To long rocky beaches
--and you, by the bay
We started a story Whose ende must now wait
And, tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearning end
And when
Will I hold you again
I feel the change comin'
--I feel the wind blow
I feel brave and daring!
I feel my blood flow
With you
I can bring out
All the love, that I have
--With you there's a heaven
So earth ain't so bad
And tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearning end
And when
Will I hold you again
