I decided to try to improve my recording skills by attempting to re-create some popular songs.  This is my first try.  I used all midi sounds for the instrumental parts, and recorded everything on separate tracks.  I thought this was a good song to start with because it has so much piano, and I even included some synthesized strings!  

LYRICS:

Something always brings me back to you.
 It never takes too long.
 No matter what I say or do
 I'll still feel you here from the moment I'm gone.
 
You hold me without touch.
 You keep me without chains.
 I never wanted anything so much,
 than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.
 
[CHORUS:]
 Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
 Here I am, and I stand so tall, I'm just the way I'm supposed to be.
 But you're on to me,
and all over me.
 
You loved me 'cause I'm fragile.
 But I thought that I was strong.
 You'll touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.
 
[CHORUS]
 
I live here on my knees 
as I try to make you see
 that you're everything I think I need 
here on the ground.
 But you're neither friend nor foe
 though I can't seem to let you go.
 But one thing that I still know
 is that you're keeping me down.
 
You're on to me, you're on to me, and all over...

 Something always brings me back to you.
 It never takes too long.
