Today marks the start of another 5 songs in 5 days songwriting challenge. I just finished mixing my first song of the week. The prompt was to choose at least 5 words from a list of 10 given and use them in a song. (I'll leave the list below) I chose moonlight, first, dance, sleeping and dreaming from the list and came up with this country tune.

[Link no longer valid]

RealTracks
1191:Bass, Electric, Northern Rock
625:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Rascal
875:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Northern Rock Fuzzy
878:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Northern Rock Gritty
2883:Peddal Steel, Background, Country Eddy
1839:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Pop Modern Groove
Real Drums=Rock Northern

I used the direct input option for bass and electric guitars. Once exported to Cubase I ran them through Amplitube using a clean tone so it wouldn't be as harsh as the original processing in BIAB. I also removed all the reverb from the tracks before exporting and used a new convolution reverb (QuantumVerb) with IR settings to give everything more realistic live sounding reverb. I used Izotope Neutron on all the instrumental tracks, Nectar on the vocal and Ozone on the Master.

Lyrics:
Some things you never forget.
Like your first dance
Holding her hand
Late night kisses in the moonlight
Falling in love for the first time.
Holding her tight while she’s sleeping
And wondering what she’s dreaming
Those thing I’ll never forget.

Some things you never forget
Like your first kiss
The feel of her lips
Pressed against yours.
And how it left you wanting some more.
Sneaking out late just to see her
And making up plans for the future
Those things I’ll never forget
Those things I’ll never forget.

But for the life of me I can’t remember
What ever happened to our forever.
The love that we had was so strong.
Where did it all go wrong?

Some things you never forget
Like her eyes
The way that they shined
Looking in mine in the moment
Making the world go silent
All of the good times we had together
Believing our love would last forever
Those things I’ll never forget

(spoken)
It’s funny how the bad times all seem to slip away.
But those good times…
Those things I’ll never forget.

Interesting challenge from which you`ve made a solid song with a good chorus hook. Impressive sound on the production for the time constraints. I always like your vocals- clear and upfront.
