Song 51: In an instant

DEC 24, 20111 MIN

Description

Well, it’s officially Christmas Eve Day, and I know I am late. I have battled with this song for the past 40 hours. I have complained before about technology, so I will bite my tongue now. The good news? I think I won this battle. I may even have won the war. Listen. Song Discussion STEVE: This one started with tech battles, but I finally figured it out. By this afternoon I finally figured out how to connect my Digidesign 002 Rack with an evaluation copy of Reaper DAW. Yes, I know, first world problem. But then, I had a lot of fun. While I am not necessarily going to miss the pressure of putting out a new song every week, I will miss the creative side and finally hearing a song as the finishing touches are put through. Apart from the songs that Chris and I have collaborated on, this one was my favourite to put together, though I am not sure why. This observation begs the question: What shall 52 song project become in 2012? On to the last one. Lyrics Wait, it’s only the moon on her face It’s not like she’s going away Take all of the time you can take Her eyes are exploding stars If you stare too long you will miss them Fade to black but their gravity pulls you in Times change, oh well I kiss your lips I sing your song Over and over It’s not too late It’s not over Wait, it’s far from the fears that you face There are no more tears to erase Take all of the time you can take We’re here for only an instant If you blink too long you will miss it Afraid to break but gravity keeps me whole Times change, oh well I kiss your lips I sing your song Over and over It’s not too late It’s not over Wait, take all of the time you will take Credits Words and Music: Steve Salt Steve Salt: Guitar, vocals, programmed drums, bass, organs and cello
