I COULD HAVE DIED BABY ( 2023 , Steve Sledge / Geoffrey Matthews ) 

V1

I was holding on a dream

That was never ever gonna come true

I saw you crossing the river

There was nothing I could do

And now it’s a broken adieu 

C1

I could have died baby, died baby

Dumber than dumb

Dancing to the beat of your drum


I could have died baby, died baby

Do what you do

Now it’s a broken adieu.

V2

Was it such a sacrifice

To savor a moment or two

I saw you running for cover

There was nothing I could do

And now it’s a faded review

C2

I could have died baby, died baby

Dumber than dumb

Dancing to the beat of your drum

I could have died baby, died baby

Do what you do.

Now it’s a faded review

Seen you on the run

Kept your motor on (repeat)

BRIDGE

Pull my world apart

Take it stone by stone

Shoot me through the heart

Here in San Antoine

Pull my world apart

Take it down and down and down

What the hell is wrong with you?

C3

I could have died baby, died baby

Dumber than dumb

Dancing to the beat of your drum

I could have died baby, died baby

Do what you do

And now it’s a faded review

Seen you on the run

Kept your motor on

Comments

  • That's a killer chorus and makes the song! Definitely something to sing along with.

    The rhythm of the verses is harder to sing along with - but it's unusual and memorable. Overall I think it's a feature rather than a problem.

    Nice variation in the bridge

    Good musicianship, nice mix. Very polished feel.

    I think this could be very popular if you can get it out there.

  • Thanks for your thoughts and yes, it’s an unusual bridge :-)
  • Wow..this is just so well written and produced. I'd say this is very commercial. Whatever, there's nothing to criticise here. I really enjoyed it. And, yes, the bridge is great - that really works.😀

    Thank you so much !!! Today I have remixed the vocals, so they sit more in the mix and not so much upfront
