Hi, and thank you for reading my post.

Hope you all find the time to listen to my new homemade recording.
It's an R.E.M. / Beatles sounding thing, about lost love, I think, maybe it will mean something else to you?

Have been trying to learn from advice on earlier songs submitted, listening to you people out there.

Looking forward to getting your advice, comments and criticism on anything you can think of concerning this song.

Fine by me if you speak your mind and come with your honest, subjective opinion, I can take it, I learn more from advice and criticism!

All music is recorded as audio, drums are loops/samples. All instruments played by me.

The guitars are tuned in C6 and the acoustic have a capo on 6th.
Planning to by the CME UF8 CME UF8 keyboard with firewire to be able to work more freely with sounds and spices for the song.
But it would be cool if any of you wanted to collaborate and put some real drums and keyboards/strings/bassguitar on it.

Lyrics:

R2OS – Teardrop 2005 ©

1) Save;
your lies
your ways

2) come what may
come what may

Chorus:
This is what it does
What was your cause?

Teardrop
Teardrop
Watering eyes
Watering eyes

3) Save:
your life
today

4) go away
go away

Chorus 2)
Say:
You waste your time
Say:
You waste mine

Teardrop
Teardrop
