I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules here. I posted this song in the 'Works In Progress' section the other day, but the consensus has been to keep this song as it is, so I've now put it on Soundcloud and it's here in the 'Finished Songs' section.
I wrote the bulk of this song back in 2012 but shelved it as the original chorus was a bit too close to something well known. I just decided to do a partial re-write and record it as an acoustic song.
Crash And Burn
Words and Music written by Chris Price ©2012
Passing through, I think I’m fallin’
and as I do, is it you there callin’ me
I left no stone unturned, some guys they can’t wait their turn
but I did and you watched me crash and burn
In the night, two ships were passing
Shinin’ bright, the sound of laughter’s loud
You said what’s yours is mine, that this thread it can save nine
She stitch me up and she watch me crash and burn
I was the man standing in your doorway, walkin’ no man’s land
So here I am, you can have it your way, take me while you can
If I knew then all that I know now
Would I spend another precious hour with you
There can be no mistake, one more hit for heaven’s sake
Kiss me then and then she watch me crash and burn
