Hi

Please post your feedback! Good or bad it's appreciated.

- The World -

--Verse--

There are times when I should voice my feelings
not keep them held inside
times when I should know the answer
not hide behind my pride
To give a cry
a shout out loud
a single voice
a simple sound
swims about my head
escaping from my mouth
says that I am here
screams that I have found a way to let it out and

--Chorus--

Let it go, for all the world to see
Let it go, for all the world in me
Let you know you are the world to me
You should know you are the world

--Verse--

There were years when I would just sit waiting
for the world to come to me
those years now just seem wasted
I should've seized the day
To give a cry
a shout out loud
a single voice
a simple sound
swims about my head
escaping from my mouth
says that I am here
screams that I have found a way to let it out and

--Chorus--

Let it go, for all the world to see
Let it go, for all the world in me
Let you know you are the world to me
You should know you are the world

--Mid--

--Chorus--

Let it go, for all the world to see
Let it go, for all the world in me
Let you know you are the world to me
You should know you are the world

you are the world
you are the world

I just noticed that 'feedback' came out 'embrace' weird. I pasted this from a post on another forum.

Good stuff, John.

Do you have this one recorded yet? I really liked your last one. Can't wait to hear this one!

This was very easy to follow and understand.

A little unusual in that we don't see many lyrics round here where there is an obvious build up for the verse to the chorus each time round, and I think it's good for that.

I'm left wanting a third verse to achieve resolution. It's not obvious to me who you're talking to - it could be your God, your girlfriend or the family dog; I like to have it spelled out sometimes.

Best,

Hey

Thanks for all your comments!

Funnily enough, there was a 3rd verse, but I pulled it because I felt it added little. I think I'll bump down a basic recording of both with and without and have a listen.

No, it's not recorded yet, though the music is written. It's on my 'to do' list, along with about another 9 or 10 tracks I want to record. I've also got about 10 or so part finished songs, mostly with music written, but only part of the lyric. I just never seem to get enough time to record these days.

Thanks again!

Cheers

John

I will echo Al's remarks with the exception that I sometimes like an open ended song. It's kind of left up to the listener to decide how, or if it fits into their life.
I like it and would be curious to hear music to it.

Treat others how you would like to be treated.
