An early take on a seemingly popular song
All guitars and vocals: Brian Booth (with apologies for the quality)
|
The version of this recorded with Sandip Sagar on vocals has been the second most popular song I've posted on IAC, Solely for the interest of any songwriters out there who might wonder whether getting someone else to interpret their material is worth it, I offer up this very, very lo-fi, Tascam 4-track original. Then listen to Sandip's rendition, which was done with almost no rehearsal

Moments
Words and music: Brian Booth, copyright 2010
Memories start to flow
But I’m taking it slow
I want to feel them as new as when
We first experienced them
You lift your face to the sun
And we two are one
Absorbing the liquid gold
Could you ever grow old?
Hold on to the moment
Hold it close
Make it part of you
Sunlight plays on your hair
Fine, sweet and fair
And a rainbow reflects your smile -
- lingers awhile
Your hand comes to rest on mine
A tingle, a sign
Breathing as soft as song
Forever young
Hold on to the moment
Hold it close
Make it part of you
Your silence enraptures me
Captures me, yet lets me free
Gently, my lips brush yours
We’ve been here before
But an echo comes down the years
Releasing my tears
Everything has to end
But for now - let’s pretend...
