Songs

Though i never thought i would find myself writing songs, sometimes i just get an idea which wont go away until it's written..here are a few.

 

Helplessly wordless
 
sitting here helplessly
wading through your tears
as i listen to the words that you don't say
and yet those silent words betray your fears.

so i sit here in silence
wishing i could take away your pain
and see that cheerful. pretty smile again,
but sweetheart though i long to, i just can't.

in this torrent of emotion and fear
i don't have the words to say the things you need to hear.
i can't promise things that i can't guaruntee
though i wish that i could make them be.

so i sit here in silence
wishing i could take away your pain
and see that cheerful. pretty smile again,
but sweetheart though i long to, i just can't.
 
Good times
 
somehow the good times make me miss you more,
and the bad times seem to make me stand alone
but being without you, it doesn't cheer me,
the way life did when we were friends.
somehow the good times make me miss you more,
and the bad times seem to make me stand alone
but being without you, it doesn't cheer me,
the way life did when we were friends.

when the rainbow shines up in the sky
the spectrum only brings a tear to my eyes,
for without friends the rainbow loses beauty,
and the blue sky is shrouded once again.

somehow the good times make me miss you more,
and the bad times seem to make me stand alone
but being without you, it doesn't cheer me,
the way life did when we were friends.

i still miss the way that we used to laugh
after disasters, in the aftermath.
The way things would always come right in the end
and you taught me wrong from right like a friend.

somehow the good times make me miss you more,
and the bad times seem to make me stand alone
but being without you, it doesn't cheer me,
the way life did when we were friends.

when the sun is high up in the sky
and the children run and smile in the park
i wonder whatever happened to you
the one i always knew was a true friend.

somehow the good times make me miss you more,
and the bad times seem to make me stand alone
but being without you, it doesn't cheer me,
the way life did when we were friends.


yup, you're still here.
