about

(words & music by R. T. Brunner) This is about getting just past the ‘tipping point’ in a relationship. That point where you still want it to work out but clearly it is not going to. The math just doesn’t make sense any more. You still care about the person. But it’s time to move on. R.T. Brunner has a marvelous way of explaining the situation that's so matter-of-fact but still reveals the emotional complexity in the story.

lyrics

It’s Not Enough
words and music by R.T. Brunner

It’s not so funny
Take a closer look
At you and me
And the things I see

It’s getting harder each time I do
Looking back at me
Chasing after you
And you know it’s true

CHORUS
It’s not enough just to see you for a little while
Sometimes life is not that kind
It’s getting rough on the kid
To try and force a smile
It’s getting harder to find
And no it’s not enough
No, it’s not enough this time

This has been happening
For some time now
You know it’s true
Is it me or you?

You’ve got some answers
I need to know
Am I holding on
Or you letting go?
I need to know cause
