Title: A Different Sky by Oldrottenhead
Post by: Oldrottenhead on February 02, 2024, 09:08:33 AM
I left everything plugged in from last weekend and had the day off work today and this happened.
It is what it is.

The sky looks different tonight
And you can't get to sleep
The stars are brighter than bright
On this cold cold night
You're snug and warm
In your upstairs room
So confused
Too much going on in your head
Too many thoughts racing round in there
You want it all to stop make it go away
No more fear no more pain
Let it out
You don't know what to do
So you close your eyes
But you still can see
That there's a different sky
A Different Sky

Another floaty offering from you. You have really developed your own thing, and I am a huge fan.

Surprising chord changes in the chorus. It climbs and then climbs again. And somehow lands on the Terra firma of the verse.

Superb song - floaty dreaminess with great harmonies.  Spot on production too.
