DON'T GO
http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=12376915&q=hi
In human intercourse the tragedy begins,
not when there is misunderstanding about words,
but when silence is not understood.
- Henry David Thoreau
Don’t go
don’t say you’re leaving me
don’t tell me the reason, you see,
is no ones fault
it’s always some ones fault
Don’t go Don’t go
don’t go
don’t tell me we’re history
and there will be times that you’ll remember me
I hate that part
I’ve always hated that part
baby Don’t go baby Don’t go
baby Don’t go baby Don’t go
Don’t leave me, don’t leave me
Don’t say that you don’t believe me
I’ve always told you the truth
Don’t leave me, don’t say it’s no use
Don’t go Don’t go
don’t go
I still have something to say
but simple words just can’t convey
these feelings in my heart
please don’t break my heart
I’ll do anything you want me to do
I’ll say what you want me to say
I’ll be what you want me to be,
Just don’t leave me, just don’t leave me
baby Don’t go baby Don’t go
baby Don’t go baby Don’t go
baby Don’t go
Don’t go
I like the lyric but I don't see how it is connected to the topic of the week. That's OK though. Many times I just don't care about the topic and would rather write about something else. This allows me to procrastinate and not write anything.
Anyway, back to the matter at hand. Nice lyric. I haven't listened to it because it is late.
Hi John,
I'll admit, there's a lot of reading into what's being said and not said that connects it to this weeks topic, I've been working on 3 other song directions and this is the only one that reached any kind of conclusion.
Thanks for your comments.

Some nice guitar playing. I liked the changes. It sounds like you started with guitar and built the melody around the chords. A totally acceptable way to write. I do it myself sometimes. But the tune didn't do much for me. A good framework that could use some variety in the tune itself or some added instrumentation.
I like the lyric and I do see how it relates to the topic.

Hi Neil,
Nice use of repetition to get the idea across. :D
Suggestion: Consider adding a line or two about the "why" to the story.
Right now the singer is not cast in a very good light. Someone is leaving him......it's happened before.......was the leaving a legitimate reason on the part of the singee? or what's the problem with the singer that he isn't learning from in how to stay in a relationship?....Is he a hero the listener is supposed to be rooting for, or the fool?
Thanks for sharing :D
