Rising sun

{atmospheric orchestral pads swell,

delicate acoustic guitar picking,

72 BPM, key of D minor}

Leaves are falling down

On the stones of this old town

I can hear the shadows move

But there is nothing left to prove

(mmmmm) {intimate vocal forward,

acoustic guitar, soft strings} And we paved the paths we walked upon

Underneath the rising sun

Now the tower stands so still

On the crest of memory's hill {strong bursts of swelling strings,

emotional build, soaring

vocals}

Time is washing clean

Every place we've ever been

But the blueprint in the dust Is a map that we can

trust (ohhh)

{vocal forward, gentle acoustic pattern,

weeping strings} And we paved the paths we walked upon

Underneath the rising sun

Now the tower stands so still

On the crest of memory's hill {full orchestral strings burst,

soaring vocal harmony, cinematic climax} {acoustic guitar fades out,

solo violin holds final

note,

atmospheric

reverb trails off}
