Lyrics / We found our song.

If I could humm a song for as long as I could live,

than life has given me a gift I’m happy to live with.

There’s a song for everyone just listen for it’s call

and humm along.

If I was a bird I’d fly over the sea,

to see myself in the sky and wonder what is free.

You have a chance to fly away and live for all your dreams

just take a chance.

If I had all the things that I wish that I could have,

I’d stack them high beyond the sky they’d reach for heavens hand.

And everything is drawn to us a pulling  kind of gravity we have.

Everybody wants to be some kind of somebody,

but who we are is what we are and that is everything.

I close my eyes and feel surprised peering through my troubled mind; I’m alive.

My body shows a language and my soul is speaking plain,

the earth provides the space for us so we communicate.

I saw a girl who danced all night she said she was calling for her mate.

I live through the day so that I can sleep at night,

but in our dreams were living kings were rulers of the light.

I wake again and bright the sun it thanks me with the light from up above.

humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm

humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm

humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm humm

humm humm humm.

WOw. this was moving and universial which is half of a good song. THe only thing is there is no chorus. Mabey add some himming inbetween some of the lines and make it like the chorus… just a suggestion.

I saw a girl who danced all night she said she was calling for her mate

this line sounds as if you got some help from the rolling stones..  

this line reads very well ,, it’s like the smooth note following the rough ..

I think you did very well ,, I though maybe a little chorus would make it interesting .. hey keep writing ,,

Many abstractions which are difficult to relate to without a lot of thought.

I’m sure you hear the music in your head but I have to ask who’s story are you trying to tell: yours, the horny girl or everyone’s?

I always love humming in a song. With the humming, and the joyful imagery (humming, flying, dreaming) words like “my troubled mind” seem out of place.

“Everybody wants to be…(through)...that is everything.” These lines feel cliche. Are they the point of the song? It seems there are too many possible points of the song, and it lacks focus. The first three stanzas starting with “If I…” are the only cohesive pattern I can find.

I would like to read another draft with more focus and a clear point.

than life has given me a gift I’m happy to live with.
Note: Do you mean “Then life has given me a gift? ....
Note: You use “live” twice, here.
This has some good messages:”Everybody wants to be some kind of somebody.” I like this line because it is very true. I think you could make the sentences shorter. You could also take  some of the repetitive words out.
“I’d stack them high beyond the sky they’d reach for heavens hand” I think this could be said better. Do the heavens have a hand? I love music and i like anything written about it. There is some good stuff here. You just need to shorten up the sentneces and make sure the meaning is clear. Respectfully, SANDI.

hi there,

i agree with you, it’s more of a poem than a song, and a very good one at that.i like the way you faded in the end, as well as the consistent rhyming throughout the poem..well written, jim

   p.s. it’s hard to get published, you really gotta write something special….good luck…
