City In Between

This is a new tune by Maggie, with some addition cross-continental collaboration. Hope you enjoy! Don't forget to support us by buying the album on itunes (check out the website for more info)

The sun shines sweet here
Mornings full of light that never fade
And the stars look real here
They sing my eyes to sleep when I am wide awake
The roads aren't paved here
I stumble over stones and when I'm done I wander home
But my heart sure hurts here
Cause everything I learned was everything I should've known

And I know I'm out of line
But I've been thinking
One too many times about
When autumn fell
And I know that heart of yours
Can take a beating
But I swear I tried to fix you up
And treat you well

I've got a way with words now
I bend them till they break entirely
I try to write them all down
But it's not the same as when you wrote them back to me

I'll say I'd rather
take it all for granted
Than change my ways
and learn to follow through
I've gotten good at
blaming this on chance and
It isn't hard to see
I'm just no good for you

Now I know I've lost you
I told myself I wouldn't say a word
About the way I've held you
I sing alone and hope somehow you might have heard

The sounds of every city in between us
And every single word that didn't rhyme
Just leave me as you found me in December
And promise not to wake me when you leave this time

This sounds so pretty! Are you using a microphone? If you are, what kind? Just interested because I'm trying to decide what kind to get.

[oxymoron98]

@AdaylaDefiance we're both just using the little snowflake mics from blue microphones. They're basic and cheap. We can't really afford super nice mics right now. But these are still a big step up from the mics within the mac computers

what an incredible song. it speaks to my life so much now... the roads not paved, leave me as you found me in december... thank you.

[Balboa515]

silky sweetness in harmony... sounds like a lost classic... intriguing lyrics... very impressive composition, Maggie! 427 thumbs up.

i love your songwriting <3

[orangmakan]

Great

[Oswlek]

Oooh, wonderful low harmonies. Enchanting.

Nice change at 2:11. I'm a huge fan of parts in songs when the percussion drops to just a persistent kick drum.

Looks like you have another winner on your hands. The next album is too far away. ;-)

[HeartShapedStones]

... that was superb, well done guys. You have a great musical future ahead of you :)

[JSVill]
