beautiful and strange song, gorgeous production! Warning - if you think you can fly always try and take off from the ground first:)

Questa canzone è dedicata a mio padre Dino Salvatori.

--------

La realtà somiglia ad un fiume che scorre incessante nel mare dei ricordi. In quell'accumulo invisibile che chiamiamo memoria, spesso andiamo in cerca delle nostre cose più care, nell'inane tentativo di non perderle per sempre. È questo il tema di un dialogo immaginario tra due amici che provano a trovare un senso allo scorrere inesorabile del tutto.


Ricordi 

A un tratto sei partito
Dal porto il tuo veliero 
Andava via leggero
E non ti ho più sentito
Ferito ti ho inseguito 
Ma il tuo volto si allontana
Sempre più sbiadito 

Tu lo sai quanto segno 
Hai lasciato tra noi
Che sei stato un gigante
Un condottiero/guerriero
La tua spada era sempre 
E soltanto pensiero 

Amico mio 
La vita scivola
In un rapido istante
Già andato, finito
Se vai nei ricordi
Lo troverai (lo troverai) 

Allora forse
Ho capito dici che
Se la vita è perduta
In un lampo in un minuto 
Ciò che abbiamo vissuto 
Non scompare all'istante 
Come avevo temuto 

Del tempo compianto
Grumi di istanti di vita
Come per incanto
Si addensano in memorie
Più vive delle storie 
Senza alcun rimpianto 

Amico mio 
La vita scivola
In un rapido istante
Già andato, finito
Se vai nei ricordi 
Lo troverai (lo troverai)
E non saremo mai troppo distanti
Se la memoria di una vita 
È un sole che arde dentro di te 

Se vai nei ricordi
Nei ricordi 
Se vai nei ricordi 
Lo troverai

When life unfolds
and time's at bay.
You see a smile
and look away.


If I could rewind
moments of my life
and turn them new.
Would they include
the dream I have of you?


You had to have known
all those years
all these tears
these letters

I should have known
I should have turned around
I should have known

When Life Unfolds)))) Conover / Sistal

Farewell Summer

"Starting Over" (demo v2)

Made and played by me on August 16 and September 12, 2024, using sounds e.g. from Yamaha Montage 8 (TX816 Electric Piano), Keyscape (Roland MKS-20 EP sound), Arturia Jup-8 V and UVI SonicPass (Emulator II, Marcato Strings sound).

Edited a little on September 12, 2024 (changed melody a bit & added and modified some chords, added some chorus etc.). Mastered with Ozone 11 on September 12, 2024.

I'm also working on an instrumentalized version. Also, this song could maybe use some lyrics, and it is still something I have to look into. All comments would be more than welcome, especially regarding the melody (it seems that good melodies are pretty challenging to develop).

As two sources of inspiration here I could name Luis Miguel's versions of the songs "Toda una vida" (by the great Osvaldo Farrés) and "Ese momento" (by the great Armando Manzanero).

North Norwegian Lyrics:

Konturan av dæ svinne hen
Du som en gang skinte så sterkt
Alt det du har gjort
Har brent sæ fast i mæ
I alle minnan æ har lagd..

Va det du? Va det sant?

Eller skapte æ en illusjon
Av det æ ville ha?
Hodet mitt e fullt av forvirring
Over den æ trudde æ så..

Va det du? Va det sant?

Æ malte mæ sjøl et bilde
Med det æ ville se..
Trudde virkelig æ så dæ
Men det va ikke sant..

Æ så dæ..
Men det va ikke sant....

Va Det Du?    Original (Norwegian version of my song "Was It You")

Though we stand tall against the Muck and the Meyer
So we hold on to the things we admire.

Richard Halliburton 3rd, went missing at sea that night 
Richard missing at sea since March 1939 after trying to sail Sea Dragon
(a gaudily decorated, 75-foot Chinese junk) across the Pacific  Ocean.
What was He thinking?

 Is it up to you to judge what he thinks
And dream where his brink would begin
Is there some inspired line you could have shared with him?  

Maybe not but maybe so 
Could you really loose it just to give it a go
Maybe not... but maybe so
Could we really loose a thing by giving a go. 

Though we stand tall against the muck and the meyer
So we hold on to the things we admire.
 Sail on young Halliburton.......  Sail on

Waterfall.. you've been haunting me 
Waterfall.. I don't understand at all

They dared for me to jump
It looked so high
And now I think I'll make it
I think I can fly

Now I'm heading down, down, down down
Now I'm heading straight down
  
Waterfall.. you've been haunting me 
Waterfall.. I don't understand at all
Waterfall.. you've been haunting me 
Waterfall.. I don't understand at all

If you would watch the sun go down with me tonight
I’d know just what to say to you
If you could feel my heart right now
You’d know just what I am feeling.
Right Now

In your eyes there's no lies
All I see is the love inside of you
I'm learning to listen
Listen to your heart.

And now that you're with me
I know just what you're thinking… tonight
I know just how you're feeling
I know just where you are tonight. 
Why couldn't it be tonight?
Why couldn't it be tonight?
But maybe tomorrow 
But maybe tomorrow

If you would watch the sun go down with me tonight
I’d know just want to say to you

Why couldn't it be tonight?
Why couldn't it be tonight?
But maybe tomorrow 
But maybe tomorrow

If you would watch the sun go down with me tonight
I’d know just want to say to you
If you could feel my heart right now
You know just what I am feeling.
Right Now……..

Be in the Now............

No More Games
Credits below

Girl I really want you to know
No more games 
No more childish games any more.

You can't fool the microphone when you're singing 
It's not inside your brain, it's your heart that's ringing.
Pick up the phone
Come on home to me

No more games with each other
No more games with our hearts

So girl I need to make what we have real
And somehow girl I don't want to break in and steal..  that little heart you have inside 

No more games with each other
No more games with our hearts

You see we got a find a way to paint a picture better every day.

No more games with each other
No more games with our hearts
