Finally started to use FruityLoops to work a bit more than vocals and acoustic into a track. Hard to keep it sounding smooth, but it does make for a far more complete sound. Here goes nothing. This is the result of a long day and then some, hopefully it has something of worth in it somewhere.
Demo: [audio:http://donalkelly.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/WhatItMeansToMe.mp3|titles=What it Means to Me]
As I waited to be, And I strained just to see
What it meant to me, What it means to me
As I learn from mistakes, and I see through the fakes,
The wood from the trees, the wood from the trees.
When I fall out of line, when I run out of time,
I fight with the shade, the dark and the blade.
And I guess I should know, by now how it goes,
But I’m still surprised, yeah I’m still so
Slow to, show you, why I, will try- to stay calm, heart in hand, dream of a scene where we we all understand…
I just wanted to say, that a day is a day
Too long to remain, too short to explain,
Why we fill our lives up, with distractions and stuff,
Makes no sense to me, makes no sense to me.
There is distance apart, and it drags on that heart
Do we still belong, do we still belong?
There are reasons to give, to grow wings and live,
But I’m still surprised, yes I’m still so
Slow to, show you, why I, will try- to stay calm, heart in hand, dream of a scene where I know who I am…
And with you by my side, there is no need to hide
Face up or fade out, face up or fade out.
And with you by my side, there is no need to hide
Face up or fade out, face up or phase out.
And with you by my side, there is no need to hide
Face up or fade out, face up or phase out.
And with you by my side, there is no need to hide
capo 3rd.
