I'm not gonna make any of my nitpickin' comments at all. If you have any notion of polishing it any, do so very, very gently; if you mess it up, I'll come after ya! Dean |

23 Apr 10 - 11:29 PM (#2893201) Subject: RE: New song - olddude (Lights on the Sea) From: katlaughing Dan, I noticed a couple of places where you sing the words slightly differently than what you've posted. Please let me know if you want me to change them. Here's what I noticed..what you actually sang is in red (unless I'm goin' deef!*bg*): I saw the lights on the sea we were dancing to music it's just you and me I can see the waves, I can feel the wind Our bodies softly moving to the sound that lies within I can feel my heart, it's beating like a drum In the quiet of the moment (when) our bodies move as one Chorus Every night it's the same old dream I'm taken to that place The warm sand on our feet and locked in our embrace Dancing to the music of the wind and rolling waves The star light off the ocean, reflects (reflecting on) upon her face I am loving this even more with each listen! |

23 Apr 10 - 11:43 PM (#2893210) Subject: RE: New song - olddude (Lights on the Sea) From: olddude Kat yes please change. I have a bad habit of changing the lyrics as I sing them, Probably because I scribble, post them on my wall and try to read them as I play LOL ... on a new song I don't know the words without reading and then I get caught up in playing and have to improvise ... I kinda like how it came out so I think I will make the words = the song Thanks so much Dan |

24 Apr 10 - 11:35 AM (#2893440) Subject: RE: New song - olddude (Lights on the Sea) From: VirginiaTam this song makes me feel nostalgic. about 15 years young and wandering along a beach hand in hand with someone special. moonlight reflecting on the water, salty breeze rustling my hair, warm sand between my toes. sigh. |

24 Apr 10 - 02:34 PM (#2893541) Subject: RE: New song - olddude (Lights on the Sea) From: topical tom Great song, Dan! Romantic moments against a well-painted portrait of the sea.How refreshing to have an up-lifting theme as opposed to the angst and pessimism expressed in too many songs(IMO). |
