Description
This is my best song to date. I think so anyways. No loops except the beat. I have written and performed all on my own. I have recently learned acoustic guitar. My uncle says I'm a natural. In this song you'll hear me on the keys, guitar, and flute. Also vocals. I created a bass line, a string section, and I've learned a lot about using gate and reverb. This song shows a lot of improvement using Garageband. That's just what I think. I hope you enjoy it. It's written for Darcy and originally written while playing guitar. Let me know if you can hear the guitar and the other instruments clearly. *~Sarah*~

Lyrics
VERSE
I was alone
All on my own
Until you came around
Finally I’ve found
Someone like you
Who I can turn to
When no one’s around
It’s funny how we came to be
CHORUS
You never know
Unless you try
You’ll never soar
Until you fly
And you’ll never see
The real me
Unless you look more closely
VERSE2
There is now
A smile on my face
Once there was nothing in its place
It feels so right
It just can’t be wrong
That’s why I wrote this song
And it’s funny how we came to be
BRIDGE
I’ve got some twists and turns
So much for you to learn
But I won’t say
Unless you ask me
I know you’re not afraid
Come march in my parade
And see how far we can go
Oh oh oh oh
I was alone
All on my own
Until you came around
Finally I’ve found
Someone like you
Who I can turn to
When no one’s around
It’s funny how we came to be
CHORUS
You never know
Unless you try
You’ll never soar
Until you fly
And you’ll never see
The real me
Unless you look more closely
VERSE2
There is now
A smile on my face
Once there was nothing in its place
It feels so right
It just can’t be wrong
That’s why I wrote this song
And it’s funny how we came to be
BRIDGE
I’ve got some twists and turns
So much for you to learn
But I won’t say
Unless you ask me
I know you’re not afraid
Come march in my parade
And see how far we can go
Oh oh oh oh

Its really admirable that you crafted nearly the entire piece
from your own performances. Its a very sweet
composition. Great vocals, including the harmonies. Very
clear and confident.
I'm listening to this late at night, so I can't really crank the
volume for a good listen. From what I can tell the
recordings are all very sharp. The flute does seem to
disappear a little from time to time. You might try
applying one of the vocal compressors to that track to
help elevate the more quiet moments. It seems you have
everything centered in the sterio field. Even a little
panning, doubling, and chorus will help separate your
instruments for the listener. This is especially true for the
backing vocals.
Its a really well-concieved piece and a great vehicle for
your many talents!
