It's strange, I, nearly, allways write songs in pairs. Anyone else around here that do that to?
This is a bluesy song. It's very hard, but fun, to sing. All suggestions on how to improve it are appreciated.
Night on Autumn Street
Verse 1
A cherry tree in bloom.
Flowers are dancing pure and white.
But here on Autumn Street
electrical light makes it look flat.
Verse 2
I was destined
to leave my home, my family and friends.
Now the're pale memories
some without names, some without faces.
Chorus
I'm a stranger
whereever I go.
Like a sailor
with no haven to call home.
Nobody,
nobody,
nobody knows me anymore.
Verse 3
Mine was this destiny
to sail away on this sea of time.
But in my dreams
I'm still a brother, a son and a friend.
Chorus
(Solo)
Verse 4
People around here
do strange things I don't understand.
But to them
it makes sense. I'm not like them
Chorus
Verse 5
Night has fallen.
Oh mine! It's cold and dark.
There's noone here
to kiss good night. I'll go to sleep alone.
hey there
I thought the flow and imagery on this piece was terrific
The last verse is really well written :wink:
well done
cheers
L.K :arrow:
