Burst My Bubble

Liner Notes

@cindyrella challenged me to put some music to this lyric and as soon as I read it the song was pretty much written there and then. All I had to do was record and try to keep the original aural vision of it alive. I felt a straight down the line four to the floor vibe was needed.

Lyrics

Burst My Bubble
© 2024 Cindy Prince

I was flying high
Felt so light and strong
Now I wanna die
Cause everything's gone wrong

I was on top of the world
Never had one doubt
What happened girl
Seems you have sold out

Chorus
You've burst my bubble
You've popped my balloon
You've broken my heart
Left my life in ruins
You've burst my bubble
But you've opened my eyes
Now I can see through you
And your damaging lies

Bridge
It felt so good when I still believed
Too bad I was wrongly deceived

I'm back down to earth
And back to before you
Maybe better luck next time
I'll find someone true

Repeat chorus

So good to see another of Cindy's great lyrics come to life in such an excellent way!

this is the kind of a break up song that leaves both ex-lovers dancing. there is an exhilaration in both the lyrics and the music
that expresses the liberation of ending an affair.

This is so.smooth and catchy. Great lyrics, vocals and music. I really like the guitar bits and was trying to think who they reminded me of, maybe a bit like some of ZZ Top's softer tunes?

Okay Corey and Cindy, here's the word. Radio ready. Okay, so it's two words, but suffice it to say that I was caught up in the song, the beat, the harmony and the production.
