Latest song from my book. This one took a while. I wrote this out in standard notation, exported as midi, so I could get the flute part. Then played the guitar along with it, and sang. As the second main character is a flute player, I'm going to be doing more of this.
Looking for suggestions on this one as to what do for a video, Any ideas would be welcome, pictures, drawings, thoughts on what I could, along with the lyrics. This is a song between two lovers, who are being taken over the by the bond that runs between them.
Soundcloud - What passed for Talk“What passed for talk, what passed for thought,
What passed for back and forth.
Was less than what I thought it was,
Though never without worth.”
“Am I aware, am I awake?
Do I mean what I say?
Is talking merely useless noise,
That wiles the time away?”
“This I know, this I say, this will always be.
There is a bond that clears all doubt, between you and me.”
“Forget those words, abandon thought,
I need you to know,
The way I’m really feeling,
Not shadows that I’ve thrown.”
“I have no words, I’ve lost my thought.
But I’d like you to see,
Much more from me than emptiness,
Much more of what should be.”
“Of this I’m sure, this I feel, this must always be.
There is a bond that burns all pain, between you and me.”
“Here I am, I just can’t think,
I really don’t know how.
Yet there’s your voice, I feel your need,
Deep inside me now.”
“I can tell, yes I can feel,
All laid clear and bare.
I feel the pain, I feel the need,
From everything we shared.”
“This won’t pass, this I know, this will always be,
There’s a bond, a bridge of steel, between you and me.”
