True-ly

Love for love
Heart for heart
Soul for soul
Friend for friend

With a heart to listen
A soul to share
Eyes to witness
We made it there

You give me enough...to hold onto
Something to get me through....until
These shadows...fade away

True-ly....I hear the moonrise
I feel the fire
True-ly....I see the rainbow
I taste the sun

With a friend to hold
A word to save
A love to protect
When we're not brave

You give me enough...to hold onto
Something to get me through....until
These shadows...fade away

True-ly....I hear the moonrise
I feel the fire
True-ly....I see the rainbow
I taste the sun

You give me enough...to hold onto
Something to get me through....until
These shadows...fade away
You give me enough to hold onto
Something to get me through....until
These shadows...fade away
True-ly....True-ly.....True-ly

Hey, nice job True.

What does it for me is the "hearing the moon rise [...] tasting the sun", because the descriptions aren't logical, yet they make sense in a 'heightened awareness' kind of way. It's almost like an 'epiphany poem' - when things don't necessarily make sense (in a good way) because of the intensity of what is being experienced.

Anyway, it's good.
 
True-ly these are great lyrics.....they express some excellent emotion and sound like they are coming straight from the heart - the best place for lyrics to come from.... :D

Pattern-wise - there are two verses before the first chorus, but only one verse for the subsequent chorus'. The first verse seems to have less syllables. There's no rhyming in the chorus. I'm a rhyme addict lol...
.
I get a nice flow from the lyrics, good meter and the dots help show where the sustain/pause occurs.

Looking forward to hearing this with music.....

:D :) :D :)

Thanks Gerry !!

They are very much from the heart. Superspit actually gave me one of the lines in the chorus, that set the whole song off...it is for him I wrote the song. ;)

Yah...the pattern is a bit weird. The first verse is actually an intro, separate from the other two verses.

I am a rhyme addict myself usually, but when I wrote this... it came out all different. I almost changed it, but thought I would like a little twist to things...so wahlah !!

I am also a dot freak !!! :eek: :D

The music for it is still in the making.

Thanks again Gerry

True :)

Thanks a lot Blues !!

Yah..I have a strange way with interpretation of the heart....especially when it gets intense, as you say. :D

The sun...moon...wind...seas...fire...seem to be repetitious of my writings.

True :)
 
You taste the sun?????? Damn, I knew your mouth was big, but come on.

Hi True- you are true-lee gifted you know? But honestly that whole thing about 'tasting the rainbow' has been done - it's like a Skittles commercial or something :D .

Much luv, Rez

LOL!!! Well...I was tasting the sun...and only looking at the rainbow...besides, the sun's taste is much hotter than the rainbow... :D

Hi Rez ! How have you been?

Thank you very much. You are too kind. You gave me a nice giggle too.

Much love to you as well. :)
 
I really enjoyed reading this. It has a 60's vibe to it (This is meant in a good way, I loved living in the 60's - at least the parts I remember)

This is the song for me. Simple, rythmic, catchy, and universal. What more can someone ask of a lyric? It will be interesting to hear it to music. Right now I have a melody in my head that just follows this perfectly. I am a huge fan of short phrases with even meter. Good luck on this one my palindromic pal. ;)
