One I wrote a while back. Working with a composer/producer to turn it into a song, hopefully aiming for an uptempo Pop style song in the style of Pink or Katie Perry. Hoping to then forward on to publishers if its good enough. Lyrics are self explanatory and don't really need talked through. All feedback welcome :)

Running back   ©Hearty 2012
V1
The text said “You’ll be back”,
And I know you meant it too,
‘Cos that’s what ya wanted,
What ya wanted me to do

Thinking I’d break down
Oh honey ya haven’t a clue,
Ya wanted me to sink,
But I swam the channel without you

PC
And I won’t go running back,
Cos I don’t do running back

C
I’ll run out the door,
Run faster than ever before,
But I won’t go, I won’t go,
I won’t go running back to you

Faster than the speed of sound,
My feet won’t touch the ground,
But I don’t do, I don’t do,
I don’t do running back to you,
No I don’t do, I don’t do,
I don’t do running back to you

V2
You’re staring at your phone,
Waiting for my reply,
I’m enjoying life yeah,
You’re the last thing on my mind

I’m doing what I want,
Yeah doing it when I want,
Really getting over you now,
Though you obviously think I can’t

PC
And I won’t go running back
Cos I don’t do running back,

C
I’ll run out the door,
Run faster than ever before,
But I won’t go, I won’t go,
I won’t go running back to you

Faster than the speed of sound,
My feet won’t touch the ground,
But I don’t do, I don’t do,
I don’t do running back to you,
No I don’t do, I don’t do,
I don’t do running back to you

B
These feet run straight ahead,
Now you’re outa my head,
I’m going, I’m going,
Now I’m gone,
I’m moving, I’m moving,
Now I’m moving on

C
I’ll run out the door,
Run faster than ever before,
But I won’t go, I won’t go,
I won’t go running back to you

Faster than the speed of sound,
My feet won’t touch the ground,
But I don’t do, I don’t do,
I don’t do running back to you,
No I don’t do, I don’t do,
I don’t do running back to you

Hey, I think this is really good. It feels like it would be an uptempo song and quite fun. I don't really have anything to critisize on. I really like it!!

Katy Perry's like my idol and I think this really reflects some of her work. Think it'll make a really cool record x

Thanks for the positive feedback :) There's plenty of lyrics there when 'reading' but the melody and tempo is quite upbeat. Really hoping that it transforms from a good lyric into a great 'song' :)
