I wrote this one yesterday. I've been writing a lot lately. It's odd for me. This one is a little rough still.

Reaching

they like to tell me I don't know
it makes them feel better i guess
just because you don't let it show
doesn't mean it matters any less

i hear the words that you wrote
feel that music that you play
getting deeper with each note
it's always been this way

heart raised high
with hands to the sky
eyes closed tight
if feels so right

so what if I am reaching
it's not the worst thing i could do
maybe i am reaching
but i am only reaching out for you

so maybe you didn't look at me
and we never got to speak
it doesn't mean you didn't notice me
it doesn't make this weak

i've felt what you are feeling
and i have been where you are
it's a time fora little healing
it's time for you to be the star

heart raised high
with hands to the sky
eyes closed tight
if feels so right

so what if I am reaching
it's not the worst thing i could go
maybe i am reaching
but i am only reaching out for you

and i will reach until i fall
it's all that i can do
and i knew it, afterall
i am falling for you

so what if i am reaching
it's not the worst thing i could do
maybe i am reaching
but i am only reaching out of you

i am only reaching
i am only reaching

just reaching

Thanks for sharing...it's really good. Can I ask if it's about JM? I have one I wrote about him called "Rock Star", I could post the lyrics if you want. There is one line from the song that is in my signature. Again, i really like it.

Thanks Lisa! I really appreciate your taking the time to read and comment. Means a lot. I'd love to read yours. And yes, it's sort of inspired by John. I have a couple that are directly related to John I could post as well...if you want. But yes, post yours! :) Thanks again!

Ok, here it is....It's not completely finished yet {still a lot of work to do-I'm having trouble finding the right chords for the bridge} Enjoy!

Rock Star

could i be your rock star?
or maybe just the opening act?
i'd gladly be your wonderland,
if you only would give me the chance.

let me be your rock star,
and i'll take you to the extreme,
we can sing our poetry in motion,
and find out what it really means.

let me sing you my song,
and tell you my deepest thoughts.
i promise what i say is true,
afterwards, the reprocussions are up to you.

can i be your rock star?
or maybe just the opening act?
i'd be your city love,
if you only would give me the chance.

everything happens for a reason, or so they say,
maybe you sang a song for no one,
but maybe i could be the no one some day.

let's travel this world together,
exploring end to end,
until the day i'm your rock star,
i'll live in this small town and just pretend.

Could I, Would I, Should I?
Have the chance to play for you?

You have know clue who I am or what I do
you don't even know I exist,
but this is something I have to do.

Could I be your rock star?
Or maybe just the opening act?
I'd gladly shine like neon,
if only you'd give me the chance.

That is all I have so far, it's kinda corny, but oh well! Yes, I'd love to read your writing.

Aww, I really like that! Very clever putting in those lines and making them work ;) Very nice! It made me all smiles! :) Not corny at all. Very sweet!

This one I wrote the other day.

my song

fingers go back and forth
pushing and pulling at strings
hands sliding from south to north
simple, but what joy it brings

notes that leave your lips
find there way to my heart
when they get here it skips
I sing along with your part

in a room with ten thousand people
you still managed to reach me
in a room with ten thousand people
you are all that I can see

i hear your voice I feel your soul
i know exactly where you are
these words so well that I know
keep me close and lead me far

i get caught for a moment
stuck inside your stare
i search your eyes for a moment
but find you're not there

in a room with ten thousand other people
you still managed to get to me
in a room with ten thousand people
you are still all that i see

with each bar my fondess grows
with each word my love it shows
i wonder how you could have known
it's yours but i call it my own

you put words together in a way
that makes it all okay
i close my eyes and sing along
thank you for playing my song

I have another one about John. But it's not on this computer, hmm. I'll post it tonight. :)

awww....i really like that one! i'd love to hear the others...I'm off to work, I'll check back when I get home. : )

-LISA-

ohhh I love both of your songs, there cute :D


back in the NCO (Nick Carter Obsessive) stage :D I wrote something about him but I re read if after the obsessiveness stoped and its pretty universal, you'd never think he inspired it.

I really really like this one
just love it

Both of your posts: Reaching, and My Song...are wonderful. I love them! You are so talented! You should keep writing...:) Reaching seems like something John would love to sing. Maybe he will someday. :) It reminds me of his song: Tracing. It's one of my favorite songs...of his.
