Answer 1

Waiting

1st verse

I'll wait right here for you.
I'll stay as time holds true.
My fate
Remains
just the same.

2nd verse

Stray thoughts don't ease my mind.
I'm caught in the fabric of time.
I know
I won't
Let go

Chorus:

I can't
Just stand
in line

If you leave
I'll be
Just fine
in time.

3rd verse

Hey there, what's on your mind?
Your words are not refined
I can't
understand
what you've implied

Chorus

Repeat 1st verse

I'll wait right here for you
I'll stay as time holds true
My fate
Remains
Just the same.

I absolutely love your work. I love to write music and short stories. I wish I could write like that. I've tried but have failed miserably. Lol. Thanks for sharing this. :)

Answer 6

awesome thank you

Answer 7

@kljdsfklsdfklsekl thank you! I appreciate it. It takes a lot of work. Keep trying.

Answer 8

Ahhhhh, this is just brilliance! I sometimes starve for simplicity in a quiet room with a message being portrayed in the unique form of song and precisely today this starvation has been fed by hearing this. I really took a liking to the rhythm of the banjo as well.

Thank you for sharing this!! I feel very inspired! :)

Answer 9

@Atsie thanks for that! I recorded this while sitting in a hammock in my backyard so it's about as simple and raw as it gets. I also used my ukulele instead of my banjo to give it more of a relaxed feel. Thanks for listening!

Answer 10

Love Love Love!!!

Answer 11
