I'll just throw out these two first and see where it goes. The first one is loosely based on the beat and bass line of Bad Company's "Burnin' Sky".
"Dark Hearted Witch's Daughter"
Not necessarily a typical lady.
Claws fly at the drop of a hat.
Sometimes I think you'ld rather
rip my old heart out.
Your evil smile says it's not like that.
Don't play by the same rules
that other women play.
You strike fear in the hearts of the meek.
If I had the stregnth left I'd get up and run away.
But your wicked body keeps me drained and weak.
Dark hearted witch's daughter.
Lips like candy dipped in wine.
Annointed in blood not water.
She was the devil's now she's mine.
Psycopathic sensuality in a lustful drunken haze.
I can't tell the night from the day.
Try to get inside you
but your heart's a haunted maze
Where empassioned demons play.
Evil never tasted so good, but the heat is so intense.
A rapture of pain and love.
Your scent intoxicates me
clouds all my good sense.
Torture with a tender touch.
Dark hearted witch's daughter.
Your love commands all my desire.
My heart's a sheep that's led slaughter.
Can't resist when you're on fire.
Lead Riff.
Thirst for you overpowers me_no hope for escape.
An enchantress and her slave.
Take all you give me baby
and never look back to the day
when I heard an old wise man say..
Dark hearted witch's daughter.
If you love her you'll be lost.
Dark hearted witch's daughter
She's the prize, your soul's the cost.
I started writting this one before Rainbow released "Stone Cold". Damned if they didn't steal my music!
If you're familiar with that song, imagine a calm beat with a similar intro to the chorus.
"You Stayed"
As I look back I have to wonder
what it was that made you stay.
I made our life a three ring blunder.
Treating you that way
what made you stay.
Promised that I'd always love you.
Put my young boy days away.
But the party-man went on and on.
Creeps through the doors at dawn.
How'd you hold on.
You stayed.
Crying alone while I played.
Hoping that someday I'd change.
You stayed_and now
Let me clean up the mess that I've made.
Always took your love for granted.
Assumed that you'ld always be there.
Woke up just before you left me.
I'm so glad you're still here.
I know it hasn't been fair.
The boy in me just couldn't hear you.
Didn't understand your fears.
If I've a chance to make it up.
To take away all your pain.
Kiss away all you tears.
You stayed.
Helped me grow up while you paid.
Just a little love that you craved.
You stayed_ and now
Let me give back the love that you gave.
Lead Riff.
You stayed.
Your friends all said you were insane.
To live in a cage made of pain.
You stayed_and now.
Let me give back the love that you gave.
As I look back I have to wonder
what a young man thinks about.
Never wanna lose your sweet love.
Glad you didn't give up.
Glad I figured it out.
You stayed.
Nights spent alone and afraid.
Through all the bad moves that I made.
You stayed.
Breakin' your heart everyday.
Well you stayed_and now
Let me make it up my pretty maid.
No need to send food stamps or canned goods.....I haven't quit my day job!
