Description

It's actually a redo of one of my earlier songs. I changed the lyrics a bit, the title and rerecorded the whole thing. The original is called, "I've Changed."

I've got a really painful head cold right now. I thought between bouts of pain I would finish the mix and submit this thing!

Hope you enjoy!
Doug

Lyrics

Golden rays of youth
fade away

Sometime skies
cold and gray

Burning heart
guide my way
Flash of light
Break of day

Long its been
my old friend

Hope things are good
from where you stand

Serve and grow
some depend
Kindly smile
that you send

Golden rays of youth
(Serve and grow)
fade away
(some depend)

Sometime skies
(Kindly smile)
cold and gray
(that you send)

	Hey Vic I remade this tune. But I think the original was in a higher key. But no matter! It was fun getting "down" with this one. Thanks! Check out my latest song called Capitalist's Drag

	Cool I like the vibe off this one. The vocal is great, dripping with cool attitude (hints of Lou Reed?) and the lyrics are really nice. Also like the backing vocals. Nice synths, and lovely guitar touches. Very cool. Sorry to hear about the head cold, man! Feel better. Peace. Check out my latest song called Across the Wire (MJRF)

	Maurice! Thanks! Originally, I was going to use the lyrics as is and write a third phrase for the last section. But I decided to weave the first and second verses together. I like how it turned out! Check out my latest song called Capitalist's Drag
