Mr. Big

We were golden
And I took it all for granted

We were golden
And I took it all for granted

And I made it all convincing for a while

The curse is I miss youand it stalks me like a shadow

Not a single dayI don’t replaythe last night together

Love will always be something that’s missing

Yeah, you are the only dreamI can’t seemto hold on to
I’m the man who has everything
But nothing at alltill I
Have you

What was I thinking ?
Driven by some grand illusion
Losing everything I wanted to be free, yeah
My heart is heavy and I brave my way around it
And justify the leaving
But I don’t believe me

Love will always be something that’s missing

Baby, you are the only dreamI can’t seemto hold on to
I’m the man who has everything
But nothing at alltill I
Have you
I have you

Oh- ooh- woh-

I regret you
I can’t forget you
I turned my back on something beautiful

Baby, Love will always be something that’s missing

Oh-oh, you are my saving grace
And I pray to fall
I’m the man who has everything
But nothing at all
Oh, nothing at all
Till I
Yeah I
Have you
Hoo- ooh-

Mr. Big is an American hard rock supergroup formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1988. The band was originally composed of Eric Martin (lead vocals), Paul Gilbert (guitar, backing vocals), Billy Sheehan (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Pat Torpey (drums, percussion, backing vocals). They are noted especially for their music, and have scored a number of hits. Their songs are often marked by strong vocals and vocal harmonies. Their hits include “To Be with You” (a number-one single in 15 countries in 1992) and “Just Take My Heart”. The band takes its name from a song by Free, which it covered on the 1993 album Bump Ahead.

Mr. Big remained active and popular for over a decade despite internal conflicts and changing music trends, releasing four studio Mr. Big (1989), Lean into It (1991), Bump Ahead (1993) and Hey Man (1996). Guitarist Paul Gilbert departed the band in 1999, and Richie Kotzen was brought as a guitarist and vocalist. The band released two more albums with this Get Over It (1999) and Actual Size (2001). Mr. Big broke up in 2002.

Following requests from fans, Mr. Big reunited with its original line-up in 2009. The band’s first post-reunion tour was in Japan. In 2010, Mr. Big released its first album in 15 years with the same What If…. During the recording of the follow-up album …The Stories We Could Tell (2014), Pat Torpey was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and participated only marginally as a drum producer and touring support. The band’s ninth album, Defying Gravity (2017), was its last record involving Torpey; he died the following year. Not wanting to continue without Torpey, the band intends to release a final studio album, conduct a farewell tour and disband.
