Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song as what I would hope to be the launch of my solo music. I was trying to write something a bit more optimistic and fun as opposed to sad and gloomy songs I had written before. It initially had more of a darker Bowie feel, but it ended up turning into a much more fun song in the end.

Song Description

A song about how excited you are when you meet someone and you think there is a chance for something amazing to happen. You build up all these ideas in your head about how amazing it will be and where it could lead. Synth bass and dancey guitar riffs and drums drive this song along with the vocal hooks.

Lyrics

Amber Eyes

V1
Tell me you want to dance with me baby,
You've got that look in your eyes,
and I can hear your cries,
But you can never be too careful lately,
You've got the moves that set me into the groove,
Underestimating,

Pre Chorus:
Speak to me, honey
Tell me something that could change the stakes,
Sing to me, softly,
give me a song that could change my fate,

Chorus:
Take a picture, and steal my soul,
Change your face and tell me no one knows, (No one knows)
How you can fly, with those amber eyes,
you disguise all the lies that left a scar on your soul,

(Ooh)

V2:
Your moves consistently driving me crazy,
You never tell me your game,
or how the hell I can play,
You only watch as I crash and burn badly,
My integrity bends, is it a means to an end,
of our collaborating,

Pre Chorus: (repeat)
Speak to me, honey
Tell me something that could change the stakes,
Sing to me, softly,
give me a song that could change my fate,

Chorus: (repeat)
Take a picture, and steal my soul,
Change your face and tell me no one knows, (Mmmm, No one knows)
How you can fly, with those amber eyes,
you disguise all the lies that left a scar on your soul,

Chorus 2:
So take it easy, take it slow,
I've never been in this position before,
But I'll still try, with those amber eyes,
you realize that I can captivate your soul, (Captivate my soul)

Bridge:
I like to think, I could make you smile,
and for that moment I'm more than what I really am,
So take me up to the moon for a celestial drive,

Keyboard Solo

Chorus: (repeat)
Take a picture, and steal my soul,
Change your face and tell me no one knows, (Mmmm, No one knows)
How you can fly, with those amber eyes,
you disguise all the lies that left a scar on your soul,

Chorus 2: (repeat)
So take it easy, take it slow,
I've never been in this position before,
But I'll still try, with those amber eyes,
you realize that I can captivate your soul, (Captivate my soul)

(Ooh)
