Still The Moon Looks On

Liner Notes

Here's number 49 of the #WK100 collection. The original demo for this was a 2010 instrumental chamber piece, you can still hear some of the arrangement in there, and then I pilfered the melody and some of the broader arragement, added lyrics, and made a "pop song" as my first song for FAWM15. So 12 years later, I hope it's had its final mix tweak and its finally reached it full potential. I really like this one, I wish it were 3 times as long. Lots of cool ear candy,and a few of my favorite lyrics. I hope people can appreciate and enjoy.

Oh, and as a side note, when I wrote Summer Number One (also posted here) nearly a year and a half later remember thnking (and I don't really remember much about the creation of 90% of these songs) I'd love to write another song for the Movie that "Still The Moon Looks On" appeared in. I wanted to get back into "that" world. So there's that.
So. Last listens before I put this one nicely into the center of the collection. I'm looking mostly for mix input. Something too loud, too soft, obviously "wong" in there? All nits crits opinions rants are happily welcome. Help me focus on a few trees through your eyes. Thanks to all who have added a few pennies of wisdom to the project. All ears hear all things. Help me hear through yours.
Wishing all who stop here a magical Summer weekend ahead. Whatever the Saturday night heartbreak you deliciously suffer, remember this song. :)
Hugs.

It gives me some comfort that the moon looks on
The passion remains but the kisses are gone
All Edens appeared but they didn't stay long

Still the moon looks on

The seasons have changed but it all stayed the same
I took the gamble and I lost the game
and the band don't remember the songs that they played, but

Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks on

I got a friend in the sky
A friend in the night
A big old searchlight
That seeks me out
I'm lost and then I'm found...

Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks on

(solo)

Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks

Unfazed by the phases of my life it seems
The moon looks on passionless and sends me its beams
If I'm lost and forlorn or just crazy with dreams

Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks on

Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks
Still the moon looks on
