A new song. It's new, and I'm still working on the vocal melody, key structure, etc.
But it's been a really long time since I did a "live" performance (taping myself for youtube). I just love the sound of the Rhodes. Wish I could take it home with me.

LYRICS:
She got carried away again.
She got carried away again.
And I haven't seen her face in years
Well guess who's back in town again?
As the fog begins to roll, confirming
everybody's worst fears.

And the ripples, they spread.
These rings, I wish they were wings instead.

Down a crumbled hallway
Of a not so distant memory
She's scratching at the walls
As I stand beside her I say
"I see nothing but shame!
Nothing but shame..."

Because the ripples, they spread.
These rings, I wish they were wings instead.

And if I fly away.
To a distant shore.
I hope she goes away
And you'll come back again...

Because the ripples, they spread.
These rings, I wish they were wings instead.

Thanks all. I'm living in San Francisco, but recorded this at my brother's setup in Boston. He has a wonderful vintage Rhodes, which I sent into his Princeton Chorus amp. Definitely a rough recording though… This was a demo done with my macbook pro's built ins. I've tracked the song and will share the mp3 link with y'all in the near future. Cheers. - Shawnethegirl
