Hey all.. myself and the right honorable Swede
@Jambrains are kinda on a turbo drive at the moment.. Here's our latest... A ballad - I don't think we've ever actually done one like this before so it was an interesting experience for us .. and as always, invigorating and a lot of fun..
Apart from the fact that the vocal is high - which is not my natural home :-) - the biggest challenge was the chorus lyric, which I rewrote a few times as I was was convinced it should be empowering but in the end we went with the original lines, which are sad and desperate reflecting the situation that drove the song in the first place, rather than a reflection of how I think I would react in the situation. I think I’d be packing his bags myself!! Although you can never tell I guess....
The process I've explained on the last two so I won't bore you with that again.. But if you have any questions on the song or the production, please holler!
As always we invite all and any crits, Suggs, comments, anything... we're all about making it as good as we can so please don't hold back.
We built a life, just you and me
We needed nothing more
Closed the curtains to keep the world away
Turned down the lights, locked the door
Your words spoken gently
Were they meant to deceive?
Your promises made sweetly
Were they broken with ease?
Don’t leave, please stay, you owe me
Stay, don’t leave or I’ll destroy you
I thought you were protecting me
Now I see that I was locked away
While you broadened your horizon
I lost every hand you played
Don’t leave, please stay, you owe me
Stay, don’t leave or I’ll destroy you
Rain pours down darkened windows
I throw them open to get some air
Let the water wash over me
As I try to clear the pain
Don’t leave, please stay, you owe me
Stay, don’t leave or I’ll destroy you
Step gently, tread with care
Don’t do something you’ll regret
If you leave, you can’t come back
A
re you ready for that?
Don’t leave, please stay, you owe me
Stay, don’t leave or I’ll destroy you
