It’s Over Now
June, 2022

This loneliness I’m feeling
Is such a sad affair
With all emotions reeling
It’s clear she doesn’t care

I fear the sun is setting
Along its final tour
I just won’t be forgetting
The pain we must endure

‘Cause it’s over now
She broke her vow
With willful brow
No shame somehow
And it’s over now
Oh it’s over now

This failure that I’m living
So pitiful a show
For all the years of giving
And hoping love would grow

The final verse is coming
For this dismal tune
Although I keep on strumming
We faded out too soon

‘Cause it’s over now
She broke her vow
With willful brow
No shame somehow
And it’s over now
Oh it’s over now…

I pray the dawn to hasten
To bring light and condole
I pray the Lord to chasten
And shed grace on my soul 

‘Cause it’s over now
She broke her vow
With willful brow
No shame somehow
And it’s over now
Oh it’s over now…

For it’s over now
It’s over now…

It's Over Now

Back Roads & Broken Vows

This creative team met back in high school in Houston, Texas in 1969. They became friends quickly and discovered a unique synergy early on – songwriting. Keith manifested his expressions mostly in the area of lyrics, while Raji fashioned his creativity through melodies and arrangements.

The number of songs that they generated as young teens in a short period of time was incredible. What was even more astonishing was that neither of them could read a musical note, and yet they were able to compose lyrics, tunes, chords, beats, and develop sophisticated arrangements.

School, work, marriage, children, and associations with other bands threw them onto separate life paths. Raji continued composing with other bands and on his own, while Keith officially took a long hiatus.

The team temporarily regrouped in the early 1980’s for a few profound Christian musical offerings. Eventually, Raji found the time and energy to record many of their earlier songs and publish them – both in several of his novels and on soundcloud.com. Then in late 2021 they regrouped once more to continue their creative journey together.
