AHS Presents: Jerry Taylor's Time of Innocence: A Boomer Musical Odyssey: If I Had It My Way

Abilene High put on a brand new musical in May, written by an Abilene High alumni and Nashville singer, songwriter, and producer, Jerry Taylor.

This song is called "If I Had It My Way" and takes place in the second act. It's set in the 70s.

Lyrics: "We wouldn't have to meet here in this dark, secluded place to hide our faces if I had it my way. We wouldn't have to say 'goodbye', then driving home dream up another alibi if I had it my way. There'd be no more wrong numbers when I call you on the phone and she is there. And I wouldn't have to worry she might find a golden strand of my hair."

Chorus: "If I had it my way, love would not be touch and go. We'd lie here in the afterglow 'til the break of day. If I had it my way, you would not keep leaving me, love would not be misery. You would always stay if I had it my way."
