Lyrics

TURNED TO GOLD

Nothing left to say
And now you're on your way
You said that it was only for awhile

It's rained all afternoon
And now all I can do
Is send my thoughts to you
Across the miles

CHORUS

But I listen to the rain in the dark
And I don't want to spend this night apart
The trees have turned to gold this autumn day
I'll wait for you until you're home to stay

Summer fades so fast
We knew it wouldn't last
But it comes around again same time next year

The autumn wind is cold
But the fire inside is gold
And in my heart I know you're always near.

CHORUS

But I listen to the rain in the dark
And I don't want to spend this night apart
The trees have turned to gold this autumn day
I'll still be waiting for you anyway...

SOLO

CHORUS

But I listen to the rain in the dark
And I don't want to spend this night apart
The trees have turned to gold, what can I say?
I'll still be waiting for you anyway...

	Nice Song! I like your voice and the song writing is very well put together, especially the chorus with the echo on the vocals. I like the complimentary guitar lines over the vocal parts during the chorus. Nice tune! Check out my latest song called WinterSong

deja-vu
This is certanly a lonely persons pain as the hope and inner glow fades away slowly, unwillingly but uncontrollable. Isolation, boredom and that grey everyday comes crawling. The text fits very well to the music. The sounds are perfect. Would want to listen to some other song of yours since i find you very interesting.

This is what would be played if i where downtown some sloppy joint, as life has passed by and only the few remaining are half asleep in their beermugs, and those last dancers who doesnt even know they still are dancing. Deja-vu kind of hangover feeling.

A very nice song,
and a nice production...

If that's you singing, and you playing all the guitar and bass and
programming the drums, then my hat's off to you...

If there's a weak spot, I'd say it's the one thing that's NOT really you:
the drums are a little samey and a little generic. But heck, I'm not
thinking about that when the guitars are playing and the singing is
going on...

You've got a great singing voice, Dena. This sounds like a country
music demo to me... I hear a sellable song here... in addition to a very
professional vocal...

I'm so pleased to have stumbled onto this tune... Thanks for posting
it...
