Original electronic pop song Diamonds is posted below for your listening pleasure.
This original electronic pop has bounced around in the folders for awhile. I decided to force myself to post it because I liked the honesty of the lyrics. The song itself or melody and arrangement could have used more work, but the fussing wasn’t worth it. This original electronic pop is what it is – warts and all. Much like the words.
No matter where we are in life, I’m sure we’ve all looked back at something we regret. It’s a univeral theme and I often wonder why those thoughts are more sticky then, say, a really enjoyable memory. (And why at 2 a.m.?????)
Anyway, I hope I’ve captured that in this original electronic pop song – and I hope you let me know what you think in the comments below. Honest critiques always welcomed!
Diamonds Lyrics
like alphaville said long ago
we’re diamonds in the sun
we did as we pleased
beholden to no one
though time won’t let you catch your breath
it feels like yesterday
but now through different eyes
i see the mess i made
some say i’m lucky up
i might um i could agree
there’s reason i am thinking
of how things could have been
never sure where we would go
we’re driving to the end
strange to think we’re far apart
but on the same path
i don’t take this lightly
can’t drown in memories
dreaming night and day
of the last time you felt free
chorus: i’d love to take it back
start all over again
but you know i can’t
and that will hurt until the end
I want to take it back
I know what i did wrong
no more photographs
hope (maybe) you’ll hear this song
I’d love to take it back
it’s not the same old song
i hope that you can hear
I know what I did wrong
