We were so close

I was looking for a more psychedelic rock sound but but a first attempt I'm pleased with this . I got carried away and done a version that is probably too long.

We were so close , oh we were so close 

something silly got in the way 

now we've not spoken, since that fateful day


Oh we were so close, oh we were so close 

Oh We were so close, oh we were so close 


I used to text you, first thing each day

you topped my list, when I sat to pray 

now I'm jealous, you've got a new best friend 

I say I don't care , but it's just pretend 


Oh we were so close, oh we were so close 

Oh we were so close, oh we were so close 


I get lost in my daydreams, do you - feel the same way ?

each day that passes, I feel further away


the hurt that was then, has ceased to exist 

the love that I still hold , has healed the red mist


Oh, we were so close , oh we were so close 

something silly got in the way 

now we've not spoken, since that fateful day


blame doesn't matter, when life is too short 

now what I've lost, fills up my thoughts 


I used to text you, first thing each day

talking we'd never run of, things to say 

now I'm jealous, you've got a new best friend 

I say I don't care , but it's just pretend 


oh we were so close

oh we were so close

oh we were so close

oh we were so close


How can something so silly, get in the way ?


oh we were so close

oh we were so close

 

each day that passes, I feel further away

each day that passes, I feel further away

each day that passes, I feel further away

each day that passes, I feel further away

    @KatiesPRIDE Love this lyric and how 'silly' actually is the new best friend...nice. (at least that's how I took it to be). Nice form lyrically. Now for a listen.....okay, you fooled me as I was expecting a female singer but I see how this song could go either way. Pretty song. Love the photo used on SUNO!

    If this were my song I might mix up a bit the lines: "each day that passes, I feel further away" with something like "each day that passes, there are no words to say" (maybe just once, just to mix it up a bit. But this is NOT my song! It's great as it is.

    Keep 'em coming,

  • Yes, that first version is definitely way too long 😂

    Some nice lines here. I like these in particular:

    I used to text you, first thing each day

    you topped my list, when I sat to pray 

    For me, it doesn't work with a male voice. Guys have best friends but not usually in the way that girls do, and they don't talk this way to each other. I think it would have more impact with a woman singing it.

    Suno bored me with this one. Not your fault - it's the nature of the beast.

    Thanks Gavin, appreciate the feedback. Just having a play with my new friend AI

    Well done Katie, that was a very good first effort in using Suno. Learning how to get the best out of Ai is a learning curve so experiment.

    Take it slow and simple and listen to others work, especially what prompts they used to get the sounds you like.

    Make a list of prompts with a short description alongside, it'll become a reference book after a while and make life a lot easier.

    Tip of the day: open two accounts, you can transfer songs between accounts so you end up with double the credits!

    Thanks Sid, I've signed up for several different AI websites

  • @KatiesPRIDE - beautiful lyrics.. well written.. i like the second of the two generated music

  • That works very well!

    V1 is too long, but V2 solves that.

    I like those same lines that Gavin mentioned.

    Good stuff!

  • Hi Katie...I like the lyrics much more than the musical treatment. The music is perfectly generic. the lyric, on the other hand, is fresh.

    I like it!
