Ric Seaberg's Useful Information

You know those moments in life when your heart has just broken into a million pieces and so there you are crawling around on the rug collecting the shards of said heart while tears stream from your eyes and you pretty much believe that you will never emerge from that dungeon and just stay single the rest of your life because the pain you are experiencing is something you know will kill you if you ever have to go through it again? So I got together with my buddy Larry Sieber in 1986 in the quonset hut on the side of his house where his intention was to build a recording studio which he eventually did. We recorded this song with one good mic onto some kind of teeny single track cassette deck. I remember what really got me going on this song was the chorus which I thought was a winner in the way the melody moves.

All these years later I realize that the singer is probably not fully exploring his own part in any “burning “. Lol. So sorry about the poppin' and hissin' on this one. The cassette has been buried in my less than temperature controlled closet for 30 years. After I got the song onto the computer I added a couple of background vocals and a tambourine to sweeten it a bit. 

Burned Again 1986

Maybe I love you
Maybe I don’t
Maybe you love me
Maybe you won’t
But when it comes to feelin’
And when it comes to touch and when it comes to making love
I love you so much
But baby

I’m not gonna be
Never wanna be
I’m not gonna be
Burned again
I’m not gonna be
Never ever really wanna be
I’m not gonna be
Burned again

Maybe you’ve got me
In the palm of your hand
Maybe it’s more than
I can stand
Girl you told me
I’d fall for your charms
Now I can feel your body
Lying in my arms

But baby
I’m not gonna be
Never wanna be
I’m not gonna be
Burned again
I’m not gonna be
Never ever really wanna be
I’m not gonna be
Burned again

Maybe I’m crazy
And you understand
Maybe I’m crazy
To be your man
But when it comes to feelin’
And when it comes to touch
And when it comes to making love
I love you so much
But baby, sweet baby

I’m not gonna be
Never wanna be
I’m not gonna be
Burned again
I’m not gonna be
Never ever really wanna be
I’m not gonna be
Burned again
