I speak to last night

Liner Notes:
skirmish
I thought a conversation wishing i could change time might be an idea! took me the pretty much the full hour and i guess as host a head start by having it in my brain!
Lyrics:
It all went wrong so quickly
Too much to contemplate
I wished id changed things earlier
But now its far too late
Our love is like A blanket of stars
Once bright But now slowly dying
My whole heart I put into you
But now ive given up trying
I want to speak to last night
Tell it it came too soon
Ask it to be tomorrow
Try for a new fortune
It all went wrong so quickly
Too much to contemplate
I wished id changed things earlier
But now its far too late
I want to speak to last night
Tell it it came too soon
Ask it to be tomorrow
Try for a new fortune
Ive tried with everything I have
A hundred percent and more
I wasn’t in for the short time
Forever was what I swore
But after time all I could see
was our love destroyed and savaged
This world of life lies broken
like a garden ravaged
I want to speak to last night
Tell it it came too soon
Ask it to be tomorrow
Try for a new fortune

I like how you brought the constellations into this song! :). A really nice metaphor talking about a star dying out and giving up on a strong love. Guitar solo is really nice and fits well. I like the concept of talking to last night and having it try another day :p. Nice harmonies at the end there. This is solid.
Our love is like A blanket of stars
Once bright But now slowly dying
What a line!
That's a wonderfully phrased little solo too! It plays great on top of that wonderful back rhythm track, that if I could describe it sounds like a guitar played with brushes haha, great delivery here too! Excellent write/performance, great skirmish!
Nice write John! That 2nd verse is brilliant, just beautiful. I really like your guitar leads too, very tasty. Thx for hosting!
Love the melody in this and the guitar solo adds a beautiful lift within such sad lyrics. There's so much emotion here that is relatable to many. Excellent work all around. Thanks for hosting!
Wow, this tugs the heartstrings. I love the title - a novel version of 'turn back time'. Your vocals are so beautiful and emotional. Super enjoyable all around!
Great poetic metaphor that shines strong and tugs at the heart with the honest feel.. you do such a great job capturing feelings I have had and delivering them in music that is full of emotion and empathy without being overly melancholy or dramatic. Amazing skirmish!
The lyrics are amazing, and the music is so sad I LOVE it! This is such a great song!
