Lyrics

Solitary Promises
© 2014 Starburst

Cheerless sullen faces
Restless on the run
Even sizzling comets
Burn out from so much fun
Respecting memories
Floral lullabies
Careful words well spoken
Stirring moistened eyes

(chorus)
Solitary promises
Life defying dreams
Don't you dare stop teasing me
With all your crazy schemes
Paparazzi poses
Longing for the past
Even aging rock stars
One day must breathe their last

Rabbit run perfection
Strapless life sublime
Living on a stage
For me was always fine

(chorus)
Solitary promises
Life defying dreams
Don't you dare stop teasing me
With all your crazy schemes

Cheerless sullen faces
Restless on the run
Even sizzling comets
Burn out from so much fun

(chorus)
Solitary promises
Life defying dreams
Don't you dare stop teasing me
With all your crazy schemes
Paparazzi poses
Longing for the past
Even aging rock stars
One day must breathe their last

Another beautiful song!! Very melodic and very dramatic!! Everything is done right....production, arrangement! Singer is fantastic!!

Well perforemd and good mix. The voice is good, but I found the fade out seemed a trifle sudden. It seemed premature. Perhaps cutting the vox altogether on the fade out would sit better. Just my opinion, of course. Good luck.
