聽David Gates 的情歌永不覺膩,旋律簡潔,不浮誇的歌詞,清新得令人感覺非常舒服。David Gates於1940年在美國俄克拉荷馬州出生，結婚前出了一張single，裡面就有一首Jo-Baby是寫給他的戀人Jo Rita，二人於58年結婚後不久，便在61年移居洛杉机(Los Angeles)發展，68年成立Bread樂隊，取得很好的成績，更是 Billboard Hot 100的常客，雖然樂隊被標簽為慢rock風格，但沒有被當時的迷幻樂風所影響，清新得像民歌一樣的音樂，雖然樂隊兩度離合，却依然受到樂迷的欣賞，直至現在。

David Gates - Goodbye girl 1978
All your life you've waited
for love to come and stay
And now that I have found you,
you must not slip away
I know it's hard believin'
the words you've heard before
But darlin' you must trust them just oncemore...
'cause baby Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
we'll never be together again
If you wake up and I'm not there,
I won'tbe long away
'Cause the things you do my Goodbye Girl
Will bring me back to you.
I know you've been taken,
afraid to hurt again
You fight the love you feel for me instead of givin' in
But I can wait forever,
a-helpin' you to see
That I was meant for you and you for me...
so remember Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
we'll never be together again
Though we may be so far apart
you still will have my heart
So forget your past my Goodbye Girl
'Cause now you're home at last.
Make It With You
Hey have you ever tried,
Really reaching out for the other side?
I may be climbing on rainbows
But, baby here goes.
Really reaching out for the other side?
I may be climbing on rainbows
But, baby here goes.
Dreams they're for those who sleep,
Life is for us to keep,
And if you're wond'ring What this song is leading to
Life is for us to keep,
And if you're wond'ring What this song is leading to
I want to make it withyou
I really think that we can make it girl.
I really think that we can make it girl.
No, you don't know me well,
In ev'ry little thing only time will tell,
If you believe the things that I do.
And we'll see it through.
In ev'ry little thing only time will tell,
If you believe the things that I do.
And we'll see it through.
Life can be short or long,
Love can be right or wrong,
And if I choose the one
I'd like to help me through,
Love can be right or wrong,
And if I choose the one
I'd like to help me through,
I'd like to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl.
I really think that we can make it girl.
Baby you know that Dreams
they're for those who sleep,
Life is for us to keep
And if I choose the one
I'd like to help me through,
they're for those who sleep,
Life is for us to keep
And if I choose the one
I'd like to help me through,
I'd like to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl
I really think that we can make it girl
