i promise i won't take up much more of your time
on our date
it's okay
i understand you'll go back home to being his wife
i'll give you space
bow out with grace
but underneath the starlight
in the warmth of your embrace
it's okay to let desire burn --
it will burn out anyway
and in the morning we'll leave no trace
"Ahh the joys of sitting by the fire, watching the waves go by, drinking a nice drink. This is beautiful"
Of course beautiful images like these are my weakness. For this one, i choose to go back to my 3/4 dance phase, complete with a looped organ motif, some pad chords played in B Major, and some arp and other oddities as suprises to keep you going. Initially i was gonna just keep building and building, but i hit a snag, and chose to change directions in the 2nd half. Were still in the key of B Major, only this time it's a piano progression, a softer beat, and a more robust progression. I tried to keep it chill as possible, but i ended up probably compensating for it with a lot of stuff. Either way it's dar from terrible, it has a lot of great moments. All in all, i hope you enjoy!
Here on the beach, only with the company of the fire, sometimes you feel the universe is communicating with you... in codes, in strange signals, in impossible languages carried by the noise.
Instrumental: Meistr
[Tokai and Sento]
Beginning of this summer I met you at the club.
We hit it off immediately and boy was I in luck.
Your smile lit up the night
Like an aurora shining bright
You wont leave me tonight?
[Morphia]
Those summer nights bring me back to the time
when we’d sit beneath the starry sky
Talking until the stars blended into the morning light
2nd attempt
n the cold, s’all I know
I let loneliness grow
Tell myself, I don’t need
Anyone else
As I think, but no one knows
Hidden from the show
Why won’t you look in my way
I’m going to light it up
Create a beacon in my desert
Burning it all down
This fire’s my war within
