160. As the World Falls Down (David Bowie Cover with Matt Singer)

DAY ONE-HUNDRED AND SIXTY

Hello, Day 161.  How are you?

This is a sort of cheat, but not really… Matt Singer and I did this arrangement of David Bowie’s song from the movie Labyrinth for an amazing show called The Puppet Playlist sometime last fall (read about it!  It’s awesome!).  We re-recorded it today at the request of a friend from The Puppet Playlist peeps.  This is the second take of a live recording.

I used the first half of the cello solo from an instrumental in old song you might know.  Guesses?

As The World Falls Down by David Bowie

There’s such a sad love

Deep in your eyes, a kind of pale jewel

Opened and closed within your eyes

I’ll place the sky within your eyes

There’s such a fooled heart

Beating so fast in search of new dreams

A love that will last within your heart

I’ll place the moon within your heart

As the pain sweeps through

Makes no sense for you

Every thrill he’s caused

Wasn’t too much fun at all

But I’ll be there for you

As the world falls down

I’ll paint you mornings of gold

I’ll spin you Valentine evenings

Though we’re strangers till now

We’re choosing the path between the stars

I’ll leave my love between the stars

There’s such a fooled heart
Beating so fast in search of new dreams
A love that will last within your heart
I’ll place the moon within your heart

There’s such a sad love
Deep in your eyes, a kind of pale jewel
Opened and closed within your eyes
I’ll place the sky within your eyes

There’s such a fooled heart
Beating so fast in search of new dreams
A love that will last within your heart
I’ll place the moon within your heart

As the pain sweeps through
Makes no sense for you
Every thrill he’s caused
Wasn’t too much fun at all
But I’ll be there for you
As the world falls down

As the world falls down
