I have written lyrics for years, but I do not compose music

I believe you've posted the John Lennon quote before? Just messing btw

Oh heck yeah many times when the subject is brought up.... Mainly because I agree with him and in my journey of being a songwriter and musician I have totally experienced what he is speaking of.

Center Of My Universe

Verse 1:
Every moment feels like a knife,
Since you've been gone, my heart's in strife,
I wake up to an empty space,
All alone with your absence I face.

Chorus:
How can I live without you?
When you are the center of my universe,
You were the only one who knew,
How to lift my spirits and reverse.

Verse 2:
I try to move on with the flow,
But I keep remembering you, I know,
That I can't replace you, you're unique,
And that's why my heart is so weak.

Chorus:
How can I live without you?
When you are the center of my universe,
You were the only one who knew,
How to lift my spirits and reverse.

Bridge:
I don't know how to go forward,
When you are the glue that kept me,
Together in my darkest hour,
I'm left with nothing but misery.

Chorus:
How can I live without you?
When you are the center of my universe,
You were the only one who knew,
How to lift my spirits and reverse.

Dee, what's the story behind this one? A breakup? Death?

I love writing lyrics to songs. I play a bit on the piano, but I am definitely not a composer of music. I would love to collaborate with someone and hear my lyrics with music. I can sing, I just can not write music. If anyone is interested please shoot me a message.

Here is one of the newest song lyrics I have composed.

Stronger Without You

Verse 1:
She's been a good woman, tried to do right
Cooked his meals, tucked him in at night
But now she's found out, he's been cheating on her
It's time to move on, time to find a cure

Chorus:
She don't need that kinda love, no way, no how
She deserves a man who will treat her right, right now
She's strong enough to walk away, to find her own path
She don't need that kinda love, that's not what love is about

Verse 2:
He thought he could hide it, but she found out
She's been done wrong, and there's no doubt
She's been crying all night, but now she's done
She's packing her bags, and she's moving on

Chorus:
She don't need that kinda love, no way, no how
She deserves a man who will treat her right, right now
She's strong enough to walk away, to find her own path
She don't need that kinda love, that's not what love is about

Bridge:
She's been hurt before, but she's learned to be strong
She's not gonna let this man, do her wrong
She's gonna find a love, that's true and pure
And she won't settle for less, not anymore

Chorus:
She don't need that kinda love, no way, no how
She deserves a man who will treat her right, right now
She's strong enough to walk away, to find her own path
She don't need that kinda love, that's not what love is about

Outro:
She's gonna find a love, that's true and right
And she won't settle for less, not tonight
She's gonna find a man, who loves her true
And she won't look back, she's done with you.



Thank you,
Dee

I hear a girl singer - could be Dolly - could be Loretta Lynn.
