Hi All - new song from me (at last!). Some might recall the basic words from last year's lyrics competition (see
here if curious to see the evolution).
It's about meeting someone totally out of your league, but thinking 'let's go with it', even though inevitably the next day you'll feel like, well, hit by an asteroid.
Specific and constructive comments always welcome!
Many thanks.
The Meteor
Verses
You burst into the room
Like a frigate's crew
Rocking a quiet saloon
I stopped fast in my tracks
Like a silent lamb
Sensing a wolf’s attack
Words my trusty defence
Didn’t dare expect
Your warmth upon my neck
PRE-CH1
Tonight let's devour the oyster
Though in the morning I know
I'll have nothing to show except an empty shell
CH
So tomorrow you’ll be gone
Because you'll still be
The meteor, the meteor
So tomorrow I'd prefer
To be the bird, shaken not stirred
But yet again I'll probably be
The dinosaur, the dinosaur
Verse
Your hair entered my night
Perfumed with a life
That seemed not quite like mine
PRE-CH2
Tonight, spraying champagne bubbles
Though in the morning I know
I'll have nothing to show except a damp puddle
CH
BRIDGE
FINAL CH
