Did You See It Coming


WARNING: This is the first song with my own vocals showcased here, I've just recently started singing my songs, so the end result is still quite bad, lots of pitch drifting, problems with pronunciation etc. Lots of Melodyne used, but it cannot fix everything. I hope you are merciful blush and hopefully my singing gets better smile

I made this song after seeing the movie Bridge to Terabithia. It reminded me of a girl who died in an accident in my childhood. The song is a story about one memory when I was about 6 years old, one of the rare ones from that age which I can still remember clearly, playing with her in a snowy forest.

Lyrics:

The first adventure of our lives
little kids frisking in the snow
going downhill by the rock
hidden dangers below.
You were my first friend
you were the first one I ever kissed
if you can hear me on your cloud
you should know you are still missed.

Did you see it coming
I saw something in your eyes
was it fear, was it your fate
did you realize everything dies?
I didn't cry then
but I cried today
an accident reminded of you
too short was your stay.

I persuaded you to try
hadn't courage to follow
I gave you a little push
if you were scared, you didn't show.
On the flat ground, you stood up
like a braveheart born to excel
after the next time you had wings
and you sang your farewell.

[Chorus]

[Chorus]
