BROOMERANG Now we have it. Celebratory. Background percussion is there but might I suggest some improvements? More bass seems to be 'de rigeur' these days. Song length should more closely match the average shortened attention span of your mainstream (younger) audience. Count the number of "I's" in your lyric. The audience is a "you". Include them more often. Let imagination carry the lyric. Don't try to nail it down so hard. Make them work a bit.
End of sermon. We will now pray. LOL

lyrics

We live in worlds that seem so different
But I think we're one and the same
And either way I know I'm not the one to blame
Well in respect you barely know me
You couldn't know that I am true
A happy ending standing right in front of you

'Cause your eyes, as blue as the sky
Take me places I've never been before
And I can't decide how I feel
'Cause your eyes, they're bluer than mine
And they make everything just appear so real in my life
And my life, my life begins now.

It's like you take away my vision
Until you're everything I know
I should protect myself but I can't let this go
I told myself I should forget you
But it's proved harder than it seemed
'Cause now I've got your face infecting all my dreams

'Cause your eyes, as blue as the sky
Take me places I've never been before
And I can't decide how I feel
'Cause your eyes, they're bluer than mine
And they make everything just appear so real in my life
And my life, my life begins now.

And I believe that pretending's the best alternative
I believe that pretending's the best alternative to what we could have
Well now I'm hooked, and I can't help but give you one last sorry look.

'Cause your eyes, as blue as the sky
Take me places I've never been before
And I can't decide how I feel anymore
'Cause your eyes, they're bluer than mine
And they make everything just become so real in my life
And my life, my life begins now.

My life begins now

This soundtrack has pretty much made my entire childhood so I'm excited to hear the vinyl of it! Praying that one day we can hear the third album but no pressure, since everything surrounding it must've been super stressful to deal with. Always looking forward to hear your next work! imande
