Story behind the song
I iniitially submitted it on FAWM as apart of 4 chords challenge and then asked on FAWM forum whether anyone would be interested in collaborating with me on this composition. Petra replied and here is our new song :)
Lyrics
Playing Boxes (Let's All Be Friends) Copyright © Nadia Cripps/ Petra (XEW) 2010 Don't tell me you didn't know Even I knew you were feeling low Just let go & take my hand You know I've always been here for you We've been playing boxes These games they never did us any good We've been playing boxes I'm sorry I never understood But I may not be here my friend If you Walk away Away again I know you haven't been strong enough But there's So much more that needs to be said I've waiting for you to see That there's another side to the story So from now until the end Can we Just be Friends?

Dear Nadia, this version is amazing and of highest emotional power. I love the playful, expressive and energetic piano with its clear and very romantic passion! Lyrics, melody and vocals are wonderful and the cathedral-like hall effects sound great especially on the high soprano passage. Congratulations!
