Lyrics

City lights blur in this rain
Memories flood, wash away pain
In this world of endless noise
I hear whispers of our voice

Time keeps flowing like a stream
But in my heart, you're still a dream

Once upon a time, we were golden
Once upon a time, we were free
Castles in the air, we had stolen
Once upon a time, you and me

Seasons turn, the world moves on
I'm still searching for our song
In the breeze, a fading tune
Where did all our dreams go to?

Time keeps flowing like a stream
But in my heart, you're still a dream

Once upon a time, we were golden
Once upon a time, we were free
Castles in the air, we had stolen
Once upon a time, you and me

Once upon a time, we were golden
Once upon a time, we were free
Castles in the air, we had stolen
Once upon a time, you and me

Once upon a time...

I clicked on this because of the #poprock tag. It certainly is! I need more time to explore your marvelous music.

Love it , love the changes it's well done and keeps being interesting throughout. Your wording and the sound are great too. The feel of longing and holding on to something knowing it's long gone, the nostalgia, it is really well captured and powerfully expressed in your use of words dynamics and instruments.

At Once, this has a Timeless Rock feel to it. I really like the Dynamic shifts throughout.
Great Vocals and the music is Top Notch!

Of course, that title caught my attention (my first song for this 50/90 was the same - had to add it to the "idiom" challenge - lol!) But this is a SUPER fabulous powerful song!!! Reminds me of Queen but even more! Wow!

the three parts fit together very well, each taking different emotional routes. then that guitar solo soars into the heavens.
