OK so I have been working on the lyrics tonight (and melody a bit) and have developed the song the lyrics below. Still have to iron out some melody kinks...and some sections might not read right but they fit the music so all is good
If I have time tomorrow I will try to polish the lyrics some more and then lay down my first extremely rough demo. Oh and I have a title. The song is about my mum (and all mum's) who gave up her life to look after me and my brothers after she separated from my dad. She still puts all her energy into the family when she should focus more on herself.
Rediscovering Julie Please take some time to be free
Go see things you want to see
Be the person you dreamed to be
Don’t live life regretfully
You had your first when you were young
Shelved your dreams, side lined your fun
Played the part of loving wife
When he left we became your life
Pre-Chorus
You did your best by your three sons
You raised them up on your own
Now they’ve gone and flown the nest
It’s time for you to go and be the
Chorus
Best you can be
At being selfish, being free
Stop work on the family tree
Start Rediscovering Julie
