Hi
This song was one I wrote fairly quickly, yet it feels like one of my strongest. Writing this reminded me of how much I love song writing!
I'd really like some ideas on how I could improve this from a production point of view, and perhaps lyrically? In the end I would love it if an artist wanted to record this song, so I really need to make sure it's presented well, and frankly it's not there yet!!

LYRICS
It's enough
And I don't mind
People change over time
It's enough
That you and me
drift apart easily
It's enough
The years go by
For the smallest thing
So hard we try
It's enough
But everyday
We're growing colder
Then you tell me that there's something that you miss
I can help you to pretend it don't exist
And then we're OK, dry your tears and stop the fuss
You've got to listen, got to listen to the heart of us
It's enough
But something's changed
And I don't know what to say
But it's enough
If a little strained
Getting closer to the pain
It's enough
The weeks roll by
Everything
Makes you cry
It's enough
But everyday
It's getting harder
Then you tell me that there's something that you miss
I can help you to pretend it don't exist
Or I can hold you, pretend there's no-one else but us
You've got to listen, got to listen, to the heart of us
Then you tell me that there's nothing that you miss
I am sorry for my part of it in this
Now we're ok, our lost years have turned to dust
You've got to listen, got to listen
To the heart of us
