ALL THOSE TIMES I remember how it used to be Me for you, & you for me And those long Long nights acting crazy, like Shadows on a moonlit night Making love & holding tight And we swore we’d hold on forever But the magic just slipped away And the times we shared And the words we’d say (CHORUS) All those nights When you were lonely All those times When you needed a friend And I know that this can’t be The end of all those times Lost in love now loves not fair And you think I did not care But let me tell ya something baby You know that I do And you say you don’t need my love But I’m the one you’ll be dreaming of When your lost and all alone Out on your own
2.
BEHIND CLOSED DOORS Don’t cry baby don’t you shed a tear Just let me know if I can love you And release me from my fears So don’t run Baby don’t you step away ‘Cause, I know my love will find you And we’ll be on our way And I’ll never walk away From the love that be both shares And deep inside you know that you still care (CHORUS) So when the lights go out I’ll pull the covers up I get tears in my eyes ‘Cause I love you so much I’ll be the captain of your ship So baby climb aboard And no one has to know what goes on Behind closed doors Sometimes I get on my knees & pray, god Give me strength to love my baby You just gotta make her stay And I know I know love is tough sometimes But we’ll try to make it better Just give us a little time

FAR AWAY FROM HOME Jenny got lost in the city of lights Searching for her Hollywood dreams And mommy warned her about the big time But mommy don’t know the scene Left home down a one way road Leaving everything behind And daddy stands tough But cries when no one’s around Oh but she knows that it’s much to late to turn back now And she cries in the night Hear her cry Now 3 A.M on a dead end street Making love just to survive Jenny’s dreams got shattered Lost, tattered And her heart just can’t be found Now far from home & all alone Just a stranger to this town And a home sick heart Seems to bring her down (CHORUS) Close your eyes girl & take my hand You don’t have to pretend And when no one seems to care girl You know I’ll always understand Anc when your down on your luck And nothing goes right And you feel so all alone That’s the price you have to pay girl When you’re far away from home

Little Heart 04:16
LITTLE HEARTS Jamie recalled how she lived for the day Small conversation with a couple of friends It’s how she passed the time And it was all so simple then At seventeen she was out on her own Slam of the door & she’s miles from home Kicked the old routine And realized it ain’t so easy And if she had a chance to do it all again Tell me would she? And living on a hope & prayer is all that she knows And that ain’t living Then she met Robby from a rock & roll band Who left her alone with a baby in her hands His promises meant nothing after all She drifts away in what could have been As the best times of her life go by And she’s wondering just what’s left to prove (CHORUS) Little hearts get broken all the time Win or lose She’d do it all again if she could
5.
DADDY’S LITTLE GIRL I pulled up alongside the playground And I looked around to find my eyes And I finally thought I saw her And I knew right away She had to be my daughter That night I cried myself to sleep Wondering if she ever thinks of me (CHORUS) Who’s gonna love daddy’s little girl Who’s gonna hold her when she feels like it’s all over Who’s gonna make her laugh? And hold her when she cries And I know that I took off fast And I wish I could be there, sometimes Now the years they last forever Never had the chance to say How much I really loved you If I could only find a way (CHORUS) Now today’s her sixteenth birthday Watched another year go by And I wonder it she’ll ever know me Or the bitter
6.
JUST FOR A MOMENT You can cry till the tears are dry You can believe all your silly lies For a moment girl Just for a moment, You can wonder where the time has gone Who has lost who has won For a moment girl, just for a moment We can try to find a way Try to find a way To a bigger 8 brighter day (CHORUS) Time R. time again my love We let it slip away And if ya gave our love just one more chance Or if ya try to find a way Look into my eyes Just for a moment You can let your dreams fade away I’m on my knees I’m begging you to stay For a moment girl Just for a moment Lost in the night yeah Wondering why we’ll never know Unless you give it a try For a moment girl Just for a moment.

NEVER SAY GOODBYE The teardrops fall As we stand on the beach I want to take her & hold her But she’s out of my reach The wind blows her hair Arid the moon lights up her eyes I feel love in the air As she stands there & cries And she said tell me that you love me And that everything will be alright And stay a little longer And let me love you tonight Tonight I miss the way she laughs And the way that she cries The smile on her face And the sparkle in her eyes I want to hold her close And show that I care That with each passing moment I’ll always be there So I pulled her close & told her I know that we can make things right And I don’t think I ever loved someone As much as I love you tonight, tonight (CHORUS) And I, I’ll never make you cry again And I, I’ll never say goodbye again And I’ll never know just why How I could just sit there & watch you cry And that’s why I will never say goodbye LITTLE HEARTS Jamie recalled how she lived for the day Small conversation with a couple of friends It’s how she passed the time And it was all so simple then At seventeen she was out on her own Slam of the door & she’s miles from home Kicked the old routine And realized it ain’t so easy And if she had a chance to do it all again Tell me would she? And living on a hope & prayer is all that she knows And that ain’t living Then she met Robby from a rock & roll band Who left her alone with a baby in her hands His promises meant nothing after all She drifts away in what could have been As the best times of her life go by And she’s wondering just what’s left to prove (CHORUS) Little hearts get broken all the time Win or lose She’d do it all again if she could

WHEN TOMORROW COMES I hardly ever show it And it seems I never care Believe me when I tell you girl I’d be lost if you weren’t there At times it seems we’re distant And sometimes so insecure Just take my hand We’ll make it through this lonely lonely world At times I feel uncertain And I don’t know where to go And then I see your smiling face And life don’t seem that low (CHORUS) Bur when tomorrow comes You’ll be right by my side to guide me right through Through the hardest of times When tomorrow comes I know You’ll be waiting there for me Waiting there for me Do you wonder if it’s worth it? When your lying all alone And when I’m far away from you Just know I’m coming home And people say your crazy For loving a man like me Living life day by day When there’s no guarantees (CHORUS) I’d promise you forever But it’s all been said & done I’m crazy for the things, you do I guess they call it love And when I feel I’ve had enough And I just can’t go on It’s nice to know you’re there for me Just to let me know (CHORUS) Waiting there for me
9.
I STAND ALONE Many say I’m a dreamer That my dreams are only dreams Say I’m living a lie But, if they’d only see That music taught us to love And taught us right from wrong And there’s just one thing we want you to know We won’t forget you when we’re gone But I search the midnight sky To try to find my way Every cloud has a silver lining At least that’s what they say (CHORUS) But here I am all alone (as the days go by) The world outside seems so cold On the night we cry And here I am I just don’t know why I stand alone Night time falls easy And the days push on & on And I live to hear the crowd sing And play that same old song Miles & miles between us And the road just never ends I think of all the times we shared Just me & my four friends

about

VENDETTA was the brainchild of five guys from Long Island, New York, created in fall 1989. The smooth and soaring vocals of Paul Carley led the way, his voice resonating with raw emotion and conviction. Guitar virtuoso Greg Arena weaved intricate melodies and scorching riffs that formed the band's sonic foundation. The keyboard wizardry of Dave Shockley added a layer of ethereal enchantment, infusing the band’s sound with mesmerizing textures. The stalwart bassist Bob Blickwede laid down thunderous grooves that anchored the music. While John Andricio, the heartbeat of the VENDETTA, kept the rhythm pulsating with his dynamic drumming.

Together, they embarked on a musical journey that traversed genres and defied expectations. The band played the Long Island music circuit, often headlining their own shows and playing as direct support for bands like LOUDNESS, DANGER DANGER and KIK TRACEE.

VENDETTA's melodic stylings were fashionable in the late 1980s and early 1990s rock scene. They would stay true to their original vision and sound despite the rapidly changing musical climate of the time.

In 1990 VENDETTA entered Paris Recording Studios in Long Island, NY where they would record their 9-song debut, “Behind Closed Doors''. The album would be produced by the band and engineer Scott Supack, who would also mix the album. The album was originally released only on cassette in a limited 500 pieces that would later becinme a rare US melodic rock album and difficult to obtain.
