Paul had an idea in the 'Skyfall' thread in The Bar about having a go at a bond song. Here are the lyrics I've written for my effort. I wrote them yesterday and have got an idea of how I want it to sound. I just thought I'd share them with you guys, to see what you think.. ::)

Throw me the diamonds

Throw me the diamonds
Give me your heart
I never said you could trust
Me to not tear it apart

Be on my side now
Your licence my thrill
All of the gold in the world
Won't persuade me to kill

So throw me the diamonds

Out of the ocean
Up in the sky
Trust in my judgement an i'll
I'll see you right...

So throw me the diamonds
Give me your hand
Only with someone like you
Can I master a  plan

So throw me the diamonds
Throw me the diamonds

Bridge
I've been expecting you
Shaken not stirred
Show me the danger
I won't be deterred
Nobody does
It better than you
Just live and let die...
And don't let them through

S.T.C

Well done on embracing the idea of a Bond song!  Cool lyrics.  I'd love to hear them set to music.  I'm especially curious to see if the reference to previous Bond theme tunes work when it is presented a a song. 

Well done :)

Hi guys, I've slightly revised the lyrics of this, given the new criteria for having a film title and plot. The revised verse is...

Out of the ocean
Apocalypse sky
Trust in my judgement and i'll
I'll see you right...

I'm working on the plot but Apocalypse sky is my 'film' title.

This is quite a hard one for me as it'll involve something other than my guitar, ideally I need an orchestra  :-\
