[Lyric is based on a quote of Jack Kerouac]
When our colors start to fade
And our flowers fall away
Will you love me in December
As you do in May?
As you do in May
Do in May
When our colors start to fade
And our flowers fall away…
Beautiful song and excellent performance. In my speakers it sounded like it may have been clipping in places. Fabulous arranging - both instrumentation and vocal work.

Fawkin’ ‘ell, that’s a great vocal/lyrics! I love the guitar when it’s heavy, but that initial theme is a little too reserved for my taste. I was hoping for more of an Ozzy Osbourne “Shot In The Dark” kind of approach. Something that really lays into those notes. Absolutely no reason this song shouldn’t be as well known as Ozzy. Keep at it and promote yourself well… Tons of promise!
The clock spins round its weary face
Time's a thief we can't replace
Will you still love me when the lights go low
When the mirror cracks and the colors fade
When the songs we sang start to feel homemade
Will you still love me when the…
Who is that girl on the edge of the night?
Dancing in shadows, wrapped in moonlight
Whispers follow everywhere she goes
Silver secrets only heaven knows
She moves like time in a dream untold
Heart of fire, touch of cold
And when she looks…
He leans on the glass and watches her go
The sun hits her hair
It's a golden glow
Does she know
Does she see
This boy framed by the window like a movie scene
Hey girl
Do you see me
Standing here in my reverie
Hey girl
Am I just air…
The sky is heavy
Clouds won't break
A quiet storm
The heartache aches
Words like arrows
Sharp and mean
But love's a fight
Not always clean
Torn apart
But still we mend
Is this the start or just the end
Love can hurt
It cuts
It…
In the quiet of the morning haze,
It drifts beneath the silver trees,
No sound escapes, no word betrays,
The sorrow stitched in memories.
It’s carrying a weight no one else can see,
A shadow made of silent history,
Every step, a whispered…
Under neon clouds and faded signs,
It moves through walls and crooked lines,
Glass heart beating underneath—
A ghost of what it used to be.
It’s carrying a weight no one else can see,
Invisible chains in the melody,
Smiling through the…
Woke up dizzy like a spinning top
Your name's a whisper I can't stop
Is it magic or just the caffeine?
Heart's a drumline
Skipping beats unseen
Is it love or just a dream?
Is it real or what it seems?
Tell me now
Don't make me wait…
Love is a riddle, whispered in rain,
A shadow that dances, a flame in the vein.
It breaks us to pieces, then stitches the seam,
A storm in the daylight, a hush in a dream.
Life is a river that never stands still,
It bends without reason…
The city hums like a restless dream
Lights flicker
Fade
Then lose their gleam
I walk these streets
But they don’t know my name
I’ve been chasing shadows
Losing time
Looking for a spark
A sign
Take me home
Where the air feels lighter…
We danced barefoot till our soles hurt,
Moonlight stitching silver on our skin,
The night was a canvas, painted in laughter,
Every heartbeat drumming from within.
We gave the stars a reason to linger,
Spinning wild with the wind in our…
Whispers rise in the gentle air,
A fragile vow is floating there.
Every heartbeat is keeping time,
With the rhythm of your soul and mine.
No tomorrow can take this away,
In your arms, I want to stay.
In your arms
I want to stay…
He walks through the city, the lights all aglow,
Faces rush past him, but none seem to know.
He whispers to shadows, he speaks to the skies,
Asking the night where his true love hides.
But the stars keep their silence, the moon turns away…
A shadow in a crowded room,
No one saw the tears she wept.
She still kept her dreams inside.
Your story’s not forgettable,
The world was blind, but you still shined,
You are the proof, you are the flame.
I call your name
I call your…
Love is a riddle, whispered in rain,
A shadow that dances, a flame in the vein.
It breaks us to pieces, then stitches the seam,
A storm in the daylight, a hush in a dream.
Life is a river that never stands still,
It bends without reason…
Smoke fills the skies, the ground is breaking,
The world we knew is quietly forsaking,
Shadows stretch from corners unseen,
Whispers weave through the cracks between.
Eyes are waking, hearts are torn,
Storms are rising with each new morn…
“Broken Record”
Stuck in a groove like a broken record
Heart and my mind
It just won't let go
Oh
And it's takin' its toll
Been a year since you walked out the door
But here I am
Begging you for more
Why am I still not bored?
Baby…
"Turn Away to See"
The city's noise, the flashing lights,
They paint a world in black and white.
But somewhere past the neon glow,
There's something deeper we should know.
Close your eyes, step aside,
Feel the silence open wide.
Sometimes…
“Coffee in the Rain”
Drops are falling on my cup so plain
Mixing coffee with the sky's champagne
Clouds are whispering secrets in the air
Every sip tastes like I’m halfway there
Umbrella's broken but I don’t care
Shoes are soaked but…

I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
