https://soundcloud.com/andyshearer-1/andy-shearer-everything-you-areA song for Valentine's day.
The drums are taken from the DRVBRIT.STY
The bass and piano are from the KBALLAD.STY
The viola and violin are taken from the STRFOLK.STY
I provided the fingerstyle electric guitar and vocals.
I used my Roland GR-20 guitar synth for the angelic vox backing in the chorus.
The various instrument and vocal tracks were mixed using Audacity.
Unfortunately there was a slight amount of noise interference and clicking that I was unable to remove from the vocal, guitar and vox tracks, but it only seems to be really noticeable when the song is listened to through headphones, and nobody has noticed it until I've pointed it out to them.
However, I'll probably replace the offending parts and re-record the song at a later date.
Lyrics:
A forgotten voice from the distant past
Said to me nothing good would last
When I met you with your heart of gold
You thawed me out, I had a hand to hold
You healed my pain with my soul laid bare
I turned to you 'cause you showed you care
There was sadness, the times we cried
But it's alright because love is blind
____________________________________________________
I love when you hold me
There's nowhere I'd rather be
When darkness falls, your light is all I see
____________________________________________________
Life is easy when you are there
Precious moments for us to share
When you're down and you're feeling blue
You know I'll always be there for you
Time to love and a time to fight
Time to hold you through the night
Our love will last 'till the end of time
I am yours and baby, you are mine
_____________________________________________________
I love you for the love you give to me
And I love the way you make me see
I love you for the beauty in your soul
Love you today
Love you tomorrow
I love everything you are
