Things are starting to change I need a change of scenery I don't like who I am Or what these feelings mean to me I'll get in my car But I don't know just where to go Maybe jump in the river but rise above the undertow I'll be seeing you around I won't let anything get me down 'Cause I wanna go south I need to get away from here I wanna go south Oh take me there I wanna go south And get the hell outta here Every minute every day I get this feeling inside As everything is coming down I wanna run away and hide As the weather turns cold So does everyone around I'm so sick of this place Just get me outta this town I'll be seeing you around I won't let anything get me down CHORUS When I'm finally there I can rest and catch my breath No more running around Or working closer to my death I'll work everything out I know I'll get back on my feet And when I do my soul will no longer be in need I'll be seeing you around I won't let anything get me down CHORUS...to end

For A Friend 02:45
How can I live without you here Who will be my friend when you're not here Who will share the good times and the bad times with me Your friendship means more than any love could ever be And while I sit here thinking while you're away Things will all be different they will never be the same Where will I go when I need someone to talk to You've always been the one to turn my gray skies blue Now I'm still here thinking while you're away Things will all be different they will never be the same

I can't get over this feeling The one I feel with you I know I said I'd never feel this way again My heart is pounding through and through But you're a million miles away now And my heart is here alone My soul will take over I will recover on my own Flying high in these clouds My heart surrenders to the earth and the sounds Here with you in these clouds I'll stay forever in this peace that surrounds It's taken so long to reveal The love I had long ago Someone else was playin' with my heart back then It's been years but now I know You won't be gone forever And my heart will learn to heal If it takes eternity I'll still be waiting here You will know how much I feel CHORUS Now I'm laying here beside you And my heart will never sleep Those million miles are far away now This insecurity won't keep CHORUS...to end

Guilty 04:54
I kept your secret for too many months now You’re the one I protected from the things we would do And how we used to meet and how we would play all night You were the hero and I was the fool You made me lie when I didn’t want to And then someone had seen us and I knew the end was near CHORUS: You had to run feeling guilty Afraid that you might want to stay with me So I wish you luck feeling guilty And hope you find peace with yourself All of the passion out of control The way we surrendered weak in our souls But now I am the one left here and I will sing We were together under the stars And then I was thinkin’ it’s gone too far So now who will it be who has the strength to leave CHORUS And now that it’s over I hope you will see That hiding your feelings showed that you cared for me If anyone knows well they didn’t hear it from me CHORUS….to end

Movin' On 03:48
I've got this uneasy feelin' again Won't ever leave my mind As this new love is comin' to an end All these worries I'm beginning to find BRIDGE A But I can't wait forever The distance now is tearin' me apart I can't hold on forever I need to know so I can tell my heart And I'll be movin' on oh So that my heart can carry on I'll be movin' on oh Now that my love is finally gone Now there's a road that I've traveled down before Seems I've lost my way this time As my tears stated fallin' to the floor The memories started playin' in my mind Waiting for tomorrow When thoughts of you won't hurt like today Take away my sorrow Then I'll forget you're so far away CHORUS I will keep hoping for the day You?ll be in my arms one more time And then I'll know that I've finally found my way All these worries won't be in my mind BRIDGE A CHORUS...to end

Waking up next to you what would people say If they were to find out we'd been carrying on this way Afraid to let my feelings show and seeing looks that kill Never wanting this to end but scared to death it will So we put up a front Going on as we do and acting as we must CHORUS: I'm still thinking of the ones we left behind While you're here with me Even though right now I'm the one that's on your mind I hope what we have will be around a long time Everything around us tells of thing we shouldn't do Being far away from home and seeing only you You have someone else at home waiting there alone I'm in a similar situation but feelings have grown So we pretend we don't care Hiding any feelings that might be there CHORUS Every night we go on I look at you We're the only ones who know all the things we do Once again the night falls and I fall into your bed Hoping no one hears us and anything we've said So we put up a front Going on as we do and acting as we must CHORUS….to end

This Room 04:26
I turned the key to my room Going back to the time when I was with you Now I look in the mirror and I pray To see the same reflection of the very first day You knocked on my door I knew you would stay And from that moment on things would never be the same In this room This time I'm alone Staring at the walls and the silence of the phone Looking at the river now Standing at the rail until the early hours The next thing I knew I'd wake to your kiss Never thinking of the things I thought I'd never miss In this room They say things come full circle So why does my head let my heart fall behind As I take another drink My hand begins to shake the moment I begin to think Now I close my eyes and fall into this bed Hoping that the memories of you will leave my head But I see you here lying next to me Just a ghost of what we had I know I'll have to leave In this room I turn my face to the sky Stars were so much brighter before we said goodbye If I could wish upon just one of them tonight I'd wish for all the times you were holding me tight I know all those things I'll never have again All my laughter and my tears are coming to an end In this room

Love I've looked everywhere but it's running away Love doesn't seem to care so I'll find a new way You were caught looking my way so I smiled back at you In should've known better and listened to all that I knew But the way that you held me Told my heart it might never let go CHORUS : And I fell apart When you touched my heart You broke down my barrier just to see If there was something between you and me And now I'm still falling apart Everyone all around us thought that something was there Long before you even kissed me but I didn't care Time on the road again and we're driving along My hand in your hand thinking our hearts are so strong But the way that you took me And laid me down in the cool green grass CHORUS Now I just think of the time when you lived in my heart And pray that the angels will keep My soul from falling apart But the way that you held me Told my heart it might never let go CHORUS….to end

Again 03:14
CHORUS: I can't believe that it's that time of the year again I can't believe that it's coming around here again I can't believe that I'm seeing your face again I can't believe you're invading my head again I watch the sunrise while the clouds are moving over I watch the flowers grow and I am feeling older I see the earth changing I thought I was changing too The hotter it gets the more I feel I should be losing you CHORUS I must bring myself to think of all the good to come I must forget about all the damage you have done All of these surroundings now must change when I look outside The year ahead of me won't be the year I run and hide BRIDGE: And oh my soul won't you rescue me From the pain of this season Won't you please carry me Now the hope will fill up all the emptiness Positivity will overcome the hatefulness All these things that I'm feeling will disappear I'll leave them behind with the memories of that year BRIDGE CHORUS….to end

I'd give anything just to be with you I'd give anything to see this through To walk with you again Hand in hand Yes I'd do anything to be with you again I'd give up sunny days Not to take you away Yes I'd give anything to be with you again I'd hold my breath and wait all night long And when I'd wake from my dream you wouldn't be gone I'd give anything to look and see you there I'd give anything just to see you I swear To hold you in my arms Never let you go Yes I'd do anything to be with you again I'd give up all my time And all these walls I climb Yes I'd give anything to be with you again Just take away this pain and all it brings Cause having you in my life means everything I'd go anywhere just to wake up together I'd go anywhere to be with you forever Now you're so far away But it seems like yesterday Yes I'd give anything to be with you again I'd give up blue skies To never say goodbyes Yes I'd give anything to be with you again

about

Waif-like, wispy, ethereal singers need not apply ! - Based in Milwaukee, Mia Montenegro is one of Wisconsin's foremost singer/songwriters, and has been a prominent figure in the Midwest music scene for twenty years, performing in acoustic-rock trios, duos, as well as a solo act. Her trio, "Suburban Gypsies" was nominated for a WAMI award (Wisconsin Area Music Industry) for "Best Folk-Rock Group" and Mia was also nominated for "Best Female Vocalist."

Originally released in 1997, her debut solo CD, "Somewhere In Between" includes ten songs, all written by Mia, and displays her versatility as a songwriter, from slammin' acoustic rock tunes to ballads. Folk, country, classic rock, roots rock, and alternative styles are all clearly identifiable throughout the CD as Mia, with her powerful alto and acoustic guitar, tears it up through songs of loves lost and won, friends come and gone, and dreaming of the Southland.

The song "I Wanna Go South," received a Certificate Of Appreciation In Songwriting from Billboard Magazine. That same song was also chosen for a compilation CD, "Oasis Rock & Roots:Volume 6," that featured a number of prominent acoustic/alternative rock artists from all across the country.

If you were to throw an amalgam of CDs the likes of Sonny Landreth, Cheryl Wheeler, The Eagles, Indigo Girls, Alison Moyet, Mary Chapin Carpenter and a dash of Better Than Ezra into a kettle and stir it up with a Martin D-28, "Somewhere In Between" is what you'd likely get.

BOTTOM LINE : If you love killer harmonies, "get-in-your-soul" songwriting/melodies, acoustic guitars and first-rate production, this is it.
