RAMBLE: Ok, so I've been watching all these lyrics wafting through Opuss on the musical breeze, in awe and (slight) envy... So I have decided to give it a go myself! I absolutely love singing (much to the entertainment of anyone who passes me in my car with me and the CD player / radio on full blast!!) And I've often wondered if I could write a song - well, I've taken the plunge, so here it is - eek!! Let me know your thoughts peeps! (ps, I've put the Chorus, etc in each time, as the words are sometimes slightly changed) x --------------
His breath, His big, clammy hands, My cheap little dress, Just keep thinking of the love I need from all those fans...
(And I gotta make it, I just gotta make it...)
It all began with a dream, A dream in a young girl's head It all seemed so clean, So easy, so I guess I kept it fed
And then came that opportunity, That way in...
Found myself in high places, Places I never should have been.
CHORUS: So my eyes, They lie to me each day, Tell me to stay, I wanna take flight - get outta here, Better do it tonight ---
Those big, clammy hands They stroked and weighed upon my knee
They told me what I was destined for, Told me what I could be...
I never dreamt I'd do it, Never thought I could be so bold...
Then, after that very first time, I guess you could say it just left me numb and cold
CHORUS: So my eyes, They lie to me each day, Tell me to stay, I wanna take flight - get outta here, Better do it tonight ---
NOT SURE WHAT TO CALL THIS BIT - the 'bridge'?!:
And now, As I look deep into the mirror, They stare back at me. Those eyes, Those lying eyes...
CHORUS: So my eyes, They lie to me each day, Tell me to stay, I wanna take flight - get outta here, And I'll do it tonight ---
And now those hands, They came and went, With all those hands, I've suffered, paid the price, Of a 'star' who never fully paid the rent...
And now my soul It's been fed - A meal for the Devil,
Just pay the bills
and take me to bed.
CHORUS: So my eyes, They lie to me each day, Tell me to stay.
I wanna take flight, Get outta here... But it won't be tonight.
(And I never made it, I never made it...)
