I recall generating the music by playing another song backwards, but playing this song backwards doesn't sound like anything I recognize. Anywho, it's about the idea of having an eternity of a single moment. It's a concept I wanted to explore in an episode of Corridor C (and thus was this song prepared). This is about a real moment in my life. The girl may not remember it, but that's okay; it lives in me, where it does me the most good.

lyrics
If you want to try for Paradise
why not close your eyes and think of the
single greatest moment of your life?
the one you would have for all eternity
I would choose to be
in that moment when we
laid in that hammock at night
and you smiled at me with your eyes
If you want to try for Paradise
why not close your eyes and think of the
single greatest moment from your life?
the one you would have for all eternity
I knew you smiled for me
not the moment or anything
I could give to you or say
that was eight years ago today
If you want to try for Paradise
why not close your eyes and think of the
single greatest moment from your life?
the one you would have for all eternity

If for nothing else, get this for the song "Snow." It kicks my ass every time I listen to it. It is everything I want to do as a songwriter. Planga-La Laboratories
Dreamy, intimate experimental pop, part of the artist's challenge to herself to write and record a song every single day of the year. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 22, 2017
