Lyrics not a poem: Standing alone in this rain.

[AnotherBrokenDoll]

Here I am,

Yeah here I am again,

Waiting in this empty street,

For you to come,

For you to hold this shaking hand again.

 

Cuz you were everything I dreamed of,

And you were nothing I didn’t want,

And you made me smile,

And you said you’d walk a million miles,

Before you walked away,

So why am I standing alone in this rain?

 

From the very first time we met,

You seemed so unlike the rest,

You had this look in your eye,

Like you wanted to care,

Did you ever really care?

 

Cuz you were everything I dreamed of,

And you were nothing I didn’t want,

And you made me smile,

And you said you’d walk a million miles,

Before you walked away,

So why am I standing alone in this rain?

 

And now I wonder what went wrong,

Was it the scars I held deep inside,

Was it the way I cared to much,

How did I go wrong?

 

Cuz you were everything I dreamed of,

And you were nothing I didn’t want,

And you made me smile,

And you said you’d walk a million miles,

Before you walked away,

So why am I standing alone in this rain?

 

And you made me smile,

And you said you’d walk a million miles,

Before you walked away,

So why am I standing alone in this rain?

 

So why am I standing alone in this rain?

Beautiful anotherbrokendoll. Stunning, in a sad sorta way. Were you feeling miserable when you wrote them?

justanotherchick, haha i don't write music unfortunately. Im not really good at music anymore. So i just stick to lyrics.

 

girl friend, i was thinking about a few people in this one who made promises that i suppose would have been broken in a certain amount of time anyway. It was kinda sad i guess.

This is EXCELLENT!! I absolutely love it!

 

Please keep writing, and, I REALLY think this would make an awesome song, should you ever decide to put it to music.

 

Keep all options open...you really have a God-given talent for this stuff.

[dazzlefly]

have permission to use your lyrics in a song??? Please??

 

Hi AnotherBrokenDoll,

I'm a singer / songwriter who collaborates with other musicians worldwide on a website called Kompoz. I have no commercial interests...just do it for fun. Kompoz is a musicians collaboration website and we use what is called creative commons licensing, so all participants in the song receive equal share of any royalties should that concern ever arise (which is RARE...just fyi). So far...it would be you, me and one other person...that's all.

 

Be happy to send you an mp3 of the concept track I've done...I've not shared it with anyone yet and will await your permission before proceeding.

 

thanks so much...hope you say 'yes!'

Dazzlefly,

 

I am very honoured, i mean i wrote this two and a half years ago and i haven't looked at it in a very long time. Feel free to use it, and i would love to hear an mp3 when you are done, thankyou, you just made my night like you cannot even believe

I dont know why but i like artistic stuff that revolves around sadness, makes me feel strange cant explain it. I particularly liked the standing alone in this rain verse, very atmospheric.
