You

The idea for this song came from a dream in which I had a very strong emotion. When I woke up, I knew I had to write about it and the style should be soul with blues flavor. I found a very suitable BIAB style _PINE for the mood and I added some extra instruments. The hazyballad soloist has become one of my favorite RTs, it works so well in many different songs.

Unfortunately, the dream had almost no visual clues, so it wasn't easy task to describe that emotion in words without using obvious clichés. I'm satisfied with the end result, although it is still far from the feeling - I realized that there simply are no words for every detail. I hope you get a glimpse of my dream smile

Style is _PINE.STY (Pining Slow Pop Blues)

Lyrics:
You were the first soul to touch me
you showed me how it feels to be loved.
You were the gift
I didn't deserve
but it's the only memory
that I wanted to preserve.

You were a spring that chose to run
in the bed of my life
a sudden flood, a breathtaking joy
the grace of nature squeezed the first time.

You were the first soul...

You were a spirit of the woods
crystallized for my sake
your full attention lightened the dusk
on my lips a fallen snowflake.

You were the first soul...

Only once in my lifetime
won't deny it now that I'm old
the highlight of my story
my candle you came to hold
it deserves to be told.
