CAROUSEL
Casia and Benny Moore

How have I survived all these years without you
I'm on a carousel, I'm goin' round 
How could I have known the troubles you'd bring me
My heart's locked up never to be found

I tried to call and I waited at your door
Left a lovesick scrawl, but you don't live there anymore

(Chorus)
Oh, what happened to our fairytale
Oh, what happened to our vows
Oh, what happened to our very best intentions
They left with the carousel

All your words they're standing in water
Being drowned in the rain that's falling down
I can't read clearly from your letter 
If this broken dream will ever turn around

I tried to call, I waited at your door
Left a lovesick scrawl, but you don't live there anymore

(Chorus)
Oh, what happened to our fairytale
Oh, what happened to our vows
Oh, what happened to our very best intentions
They left with the carousel

Thanks, Roger, Bill and nitch.
This one gave me a bunch of inspiration and I used different "colours" to stress the mood that was already there with the songwriting!

Hey....Doc has a new avatar.  My his head has gotten big, or is that an "ego" 

[McLovin]

I FREAKING LOVE THIS!!

Pop hit guys!! No shitting!!

-Benny/Cas,..fantastic song writing and vocals.  Really controlled production.  That's what makes this sound so pro!

-Doc doc doc,... you always know exactly what to play brother.  The texture of your harmonies are really rich and smooth.  Fit like a glove!

-Andy... Your bassline makes this thing really move along,.. and the chosen notes are dead on!

Thank you guys for posting this gem!

Thanks Jay, it means a lot to me. Benny's melody was so strong, as was the instrumentation, the bass part kind of wrote itself, just tried to add dynamics without overplaying
