Lyrics:
DIAMONDS TO DUST

I stand there lost
With words I should say
But they’re left on my tongue
As you walk away

Do you know how it feels
When love causes pain
Clouds cover sun
As I walk in the rain

it’s like Diamonds To Dust
Roses to thorns
It’s like a house up in flames
A picture that’s torn

Diamonds to Dust
Diamonds to Dust

Feel the sting in my heart
And the longing for you
Makes the tears start to flow
Thought our love was so true

Never thought that your love
Could cause me such pain
The coldness of you
Leaves me crying again
it’s like Diamonds To Dust
Roses to thorns
It’s like a house up in flames
A picture that’s torn

(Guitar solo)

Do you know how it feels
When love causes pain
Clouds cover sun
As I walk in the rain

it’s like Diamonds To Dust
Roses to thorns
It’s like a house up in flames
A picture that’s torn

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Hi Michael,

Excellent song and good performance.

I particularly liked the compact lyrics and very catchy chorus.

I would have liked your vocals a little louder especially in the opening verses.

Best Regards
Nigel

A wonderful song, and excellent use of BiaB. Good mix, and your vocal is the star of the show, Michael. A very enjoyable listen.


Enjoy whatever happens!

I also like it, you have a good voice.
I'd even make the vocals a bit louder, but it's already very good as it is now.
Good job!


Making bits and bytes sound good...

I'm late to this party but glad that I came.
Super song!
Great vocal, although I think they should be a tad louder. You have a great voice so show it off!
Great mix.
