A stab at most of the lyrics to "Love is Worth Fighting For"
Hold tight, Momma always says
It’s alright, no need to be afraid
Confusion is the damnedest thing
One day you’re flying
The next you’ve lost your wings
.
Chorus:
But I’m getting tired of all this fronting
It feels like I’m running on empty, for nothing
Now I’m telling you that I cannot take no more
Because I feel the weight of the world on me
Tell me the truth that’s it’s not in vain
Broken promises they can’t be saved
To this day I believe there’s no shame (2nd – I believe to this day there’s no shame)
.
Cause love is worth fighting for
.
When it takes you it’s the grandest thing
It’ll make you
It can break you just the same
(chorus)
etc
Haley said she wrote this "not too long ago....it's about music...so think about that." "A little inside scoop." Haley probably needed that trip home.
I haven't been able to watch the video of this performance yet, but this sounds like a really important song. It makes me sad to know Haley might be feeling this way

RE: Haley & Casey at Room 5 August 29th
I absolutely lovvveeee Haley's new song, Love Is Worth Fighting For!!! LOVE the song's melody and lots of emotion in this song. Could imagine Beyonce or Jennifer Hudson? singing this... And lauraliz, it made me a little teary eyed the first time I listened to it too.
With A Little Help from My Friends, and The Way You Make Me Feel are 2 other favs of mine from last night!  Haley's voice is so clear in this MJ song. 
Just love her giving it her all with that growwlll and waaiilll! Wow!! And Haley and Casey are so perfect together. There is so much to watch with the two of them performing.  Must be very cool to see them in a small venue like this.
It's too bad Patti wasn't there. She should have stayed in LA another 2 days! 
And thank you so much to our video team, Rachel and Yanni. GREAT JOB!!
The tripod was a smart choice!

She really deserves it and has so much to offer! And I applaud Haley's songwriting abilities. I mean look at the words to this song!
There has been some talk here of signing with management and/or labels etc, but I think Haley is being very very careful in taking her next step. Everybody wants a big piece of the pie.  Not easy... Once you sign on the dotted line...

RE: Haley & Casey at Room 5 August 29th
I just got done watching all of the vids. Thank you so much for filming and posting all of these Rachel!! They turned out great!! Thank you too Yanni!! I got to see the one's you posted last night.
My favorite two, of their set, were the brand new ones "Love is Worth Fighting For" & "Never Knew What Love Could Do", which I'm pretty fairly confident now is an original. There are 2 songs, w/ that title that showed up in a Google search & neither of them sound anything like it. Also, Haley mentions that "You Were There" was the 1st song they wrote together so....
Anyway, I think those are two of the best they've written. I probably need to give it a couple of weeks, but "Love is Worth Fighting For" might be my favorite song Haley's ever written. I was really feeling her on that one. Love the lyrics, great melody, incredible vocal. I'm going to be listening to it a lot.

I wouldn't worry about that too much Babbs. She never publicly performs (& tries to keep secret) the songs she makes available to other artists thru Ole. And it's just too good to get left off of her next LP.

It's curious, there is a song called "I Never Knew" with music written by Ted Fio Rito and lyrics by Gus Kahn. It was first recorded in 1925 and has been recorded many times, often as an instrumental version (for example, Benny Goodman). There are some melodic similarities to Caley's song in spots I think, although the Fio Rito and Kahn song is more of a fast, swing tune.
The lyrics of the songs are much different although the Kahn lyrics include "I never knew what love could do, until I met you today." Caley's song has the lyric "Never knew what love can do, until I met found you today."
Compare about 8-10 seconds of these two clips:

RE: Haley & Casey at Room 5 August 29th
An earlier post I made and then hid because I didn't want to derail the thread at the time:
Different songs of the same name as
"I NEVER KNEW WHAT LOVE COULD DO"
Selvin's Newport Society Orchestra
1925:
Then there's "I never knew"
Quote:A gorgeous song from the 1955 film Pete Kelly's Blues, starring Peggy Lee. Here she sings and makes her own a song from the 1920s which many other (including Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole covered).
