In the early 1990s Huge was in a band with a guy called Adam Rogers, with whom he also shared a day job. The band never went anywhere for a number of reasons, but one of the highlights was the recording this song, which Adam wrote. Huge absolutely adored it then and could really identify with where Adam's head was when he wrote it. The first version was put together in a huge hurry for an unsuccessful application to the JBSeed for funding.

On this version, all noises were made by Huge and most were recorded and engineered by "Big" Phil van Vliet.

Looking back over wasted time I'm wondering where I went wrong.
I'm thinking maybe it was all in my mind - an illusion all along.
Picking up the pieces of broken dreams lying scattered on the floor.
Is anything really as it seems?
I don't know what to believe anymore.

And though I don't really have a religion,
I've never really had much faith at all,
Tonight I feel I could cry to heaven.
Yeah tonight I feel I could cry to heaven.

Seem to spend my whole life on the run just trying to hide from the pain.
But a broken heart is like a setting sun; you know it always rises again.
They say a fortress built on bitterness is no more than an empty shell.
But if it hides my loneliness, maybe that's just as well.

I'm not really sure if it was my decision
Or if I even had much choice at all.
But tonight I feel I could cry to heaven.
Yeah tonight I feel I could cry to heaven.

Looking back over wasted time, how could I have got it so wrong?
I should have known from the start it was all in my mind; an illusion all along.

You know I don't really have a religion,
I've never really had much faith at all,
But tonight I feel I could cry to heaven.
Yeah tonight I feel I could cry to heaven.
Tonight I could cry ...
