Boar's Foot Feast: 24 songs in about 7 hours.
Song #14

This one was started on 23 September for songfight and I pretty much had the chorus done. When I got stuck today I flipped back to some abandoned bits and this was the first one I spotted. Got the verses and the bridge done and polished what I had a bit.

Lyrics: 

I could tell by the look in your eye
There was more to it than there might seem
A subtle nod, your delicate smile
I think I know what it means

A moment together and then you are gone

Don't tell me I only imagined it
I don't want to be your fool
Don't tell me I only imagined it
I want it all to be true
And all the things they say: cliches
And all I could ever do
Pale in comparison to my love for you

I could tell by the hitch in your step
You were dancing only for me
The way you turn, the hair around your neck
Amazed no-one else can see

A moment together and then you are gone

Don't tell me I only imagined it
I don't want to be your fool
Don't tell me I only imagined it
I want it all to be true
And all the things they say: cliches
And all I could ever do
Pale in comparison to my love for you

A single moment on the street
I stopped but you passed on by
A moment together but then you were gone

Don't tell me I only imagined it
I don't want to be your fool
Don't tell me I only imagined it
I want it all to be true
And all the things they say: cliches
And all I could ever do
Pale in comparison to my love for you

That minor IV (I think) is really great, that Santo and Johnny vibe. Or is it the I…damn my ears are failing me. Now I’m just embarrassed for myself. Stupid me acting like I have a firm grasp on theory.

Lyrics are really great. Song fight knockout.
