Now it's at 80.... Good catch it was to slow
The bridge puts me in it
I changed last chorus so I'm not preaching to the choir
The BGVS will still fit when I'm done
Bridge
The past is dead the present dies about this time
I just bury it and say it was never mine
Ch
It ain't our imagination
the future's already here
But were still waiting
For the past to reappear
Nobody wants tomorrow
'Til yesterday disappears
And brother… tomorrow's already here
Now its at 3:18 good radio time
it has to have the bridge or I'm acting better than everybody else ,Now I'm not , I miss the past also
The golden years does not fit , that would change the angle to aging . Thats why I fixed it to
And brother… tomorrow's already here
Why did I try golden years? Cuz I'm in these golden years

I still think it's a beautiful song...... I just wanted my brain to get to the next line... Great job and I will listen again.
Thanks for sharing!

I bumped it up to 80 BPM , that solves the slow part . Good catch Kay-Lynn

WEll its a ballad , its radio friendly at 3:43
My version will have gospel singers filling in lines with ooooh's
And repeating lines in last chorus
it will not say Golden years like Suno is doing
I can hear the BGVS in my head now , Yes it is slow
For the sake of using Suno as a map , Here's the human version done by Nicky V in Nashville I will sing to Sunday

cuz you had me curious
AI Overview
No, 65 BPM is not too slow for a ballad; it is actually a very typical, "ideal" tempo for a slow to moderate-slow ballad. A 60–70 BPM range is often considered a perfect tempo for ballads, hymns, and emotional pieces, as it matches a resting heart rate and feels grounded and steady.

I like the lyric, but the music seems painfully slow. is it just me?

Verse 1
There's a man still talking
'Bout the good old days
Like time froze up
And never changed
He's got yesterday playing
On a worn-out tape
While tomorrow's knocking
But it's getting late
Chorus
It ain't your imagination…
The future's already here
But everybody's still waiting
For the past to reappear
Nobody wants tomorrow
'Til yesterday disappears
Verse 2
Still talking yesterday
Like it's coming back
While tomorrow's rolling
Right down the track
You can hold on tight
To what you used to know
But the river keeps running
And it won't slow
Chorus
It ain't your imagination…
The future's already here
But everybody's still waiting
For the past to reappear
Nobody wants tomorrow
'Til yesterday disappears
And brother… these ain't the golden years
Bridge
The past is dead the present dies about this time
I just bury it and say it was never mine
Ch
It ain't our imagination
the future's already here
But were still waiting
For the past to reappear
Nobody wants tomorrow
'Til yesterday disappears
And brother… tomorrow's already here
This will be sung Sunday using Suno as a map and Using Nicky V in Nashville to made the guitar tracks
