When There Was Me and You - Vanessa Anne Hudgens

taken from some high school musical, introduced by cons - finally i can remember her by another song other than Total Eclipse of the Heart.

quite a slow song, with minimal percussion (single drumset), and a piano for accompaniment. wonderful change of key in the middle and at the end.

the choruses show a nice contrast, i think she was trying to tell me that. just excellent. from the first part where the girl thinks that she's in a relationship - to the second part where she discovers that she's living in her own illusion after all.

illusions.. somehow, my mind flashbacks to those years long ago when i lived in my own...

It's funny when you find yourself, looking from the outside

I'm standing here, but all I want, is to be over there

Why did I let myself believe, miracles could happen

I swore I knew the melody, that I heard you singing

And when you smiled, you made me feel, like I could sing along
A A B E B/D#
But then you went and changed the words, now my heart is empty
C#m A B E
I'm only left with used-to-be's, I’m once upon a song

A B E B/D# C#m
*Now I know you’re not a fairytale, and dreams were meant for sleeping
A B C#m C#m7
And wishes on a star, just don't come true
A B E B/D# C#m A
Cause now even I can tell, that I confused my feelings with the truth

Cause I liked the view, when there was me and you

I can't believe that, I could be so blind
