Last Summer

Lyrics:

You know me well
Still hard to tell
What’s going on
Cause I fall from grace
Each and everyday
Oh drop the hat
But I don’t wanna lesson
No, I’m only confessin’
That I might just be

A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult

Cause when I’m rocking the place
I’m never far away
From a mess again
(Mess again, mess again)
But you stay by my side
I’m left wondering why?
Cause I know that I’m obsessive
(Oh I’m obsessive babe)
But you are my main obsession
(Ooo)
Still I might just be

A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult

(Difficult)
Ooo but am I pushing you outta reach?
(Difficult)
Tell me baby how long is my leash?
(Difficult)
Ooo well tell me how long?
Oh how long?

Oh but I don’t want any lessons
I’m only now confessin’
That I might just be

A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult, difficult
(Oh I’m a difficult love)
A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult

Brand New Every Time

Smooth jazz love song by songwriter Stan Countz Music

I'll Never Let You Go

Smooth jazz with sexy sax about a guy who's talking one last chance at romance.

When Two Worlds Collide

In the shadow of our words, I searched for light,
But your silence carved deep rivers in the night.
I reached out my hand, you let it fall away,
Now we drown in the things we never say.

Broken heart, and dreams erased,
Who was the one to throw it all away?

Who’s to blame,
When love slips into the dark?
Who’s to blame,
When our promises fall apart?
Is it you, is it me, is it both of us too?
Who’s to blame…
We lost it all, we lost the truth.

Your eyes turned away, like shadows in a dance,
And I called your name through the winds of absence.
I waited hours, then years in vain,
While you turned the page without the pain.

Tears keep falling, memories fade,
Who erased the forever we made?

Who’s to blame,
When love slips into the dark?
Who’s to blame,
When our promises fall apart?
Is it you, is it me, is it both of us too?
Who’s to blame…
We lost it all, we lost the truth.

Maybe time betrayed what we couldn’t see,
Maybe fear destroyed what was meant to be.
Who’s to blame if we failed to hold,
The fire that should have kept us whole?

Who’s to blame,
When love slips into the dark?
Who’s to blame,
When our promises fall apart?
Is it you, is it me, is it both of us too?
Who’s to blame…
We lost it all, we lost the truth.

Who’s to blame…
It’s you, it’s me… it’s us, maybe.
Who’s to blame…
It was us… it was us…

Who’s to blame ? (Quiet Storm reload)

Songwriter. Storyteller. Sound pioneer, Stan Countz is a genre-bending songwriter with over 300 original songs under his belt — a true craftsman of lyric and melody. From his debut track “Those Hap Happy Days” in 2005, a nostalgic tribute to the golden era of the ’50s and ’60s, Stan has built a musical legacy rooted in meaning, melody, and message.

Writing under the moniker Stan and Be Counted, he stands tall in the world of music as both a creator and a voice of purpose. His catalog spans a kaleidoscope of genres — from contemporary Christian rock and gospel to EDM, country pop, blues, R&B, hip hop, folk, and beyond. Each song is a reflection of his passion for storytelling and his desire to uplift, challenge, and connect.

Whether crafting soul-stirring love ballads, foot-tapping jingles, or heart-pounding hard rock anthems, Stan brings a rare blend of versatility, depth, and soul to every track. He doesn't just write songs — he writes moments you can feel.

Stan Countz is more than an artist — he’s a movement. A call to stand... and be counted. He is a prolific lyricist and lives in Denison, Texas with his artist/photographer wife. 

If you're an Artist looking for a song for the next hit, send me a message. Who knows, I may have a gem and a #1 hit for us both!

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.
