Title: For Eternity
Post by: Andreas on March 28, 2019, 09:21:00 PM
Wrote a new song today, and I feel really good about this, even though it is probably the saddest I have ever written. I wrote it in a 3rd person perspective which is also new for me, trying to tell a story between two people. I also have a good melodic idea, with a little guitar intro, and a pretty simple vocal melody throughout, but if anyone is willing to help me out a little with possibly a guitar solo after the bridge, and some small licks throughout, and maybe some keys, please feel free to shout out :)

For Eternity

(V1)
Did he break your heart
When he said goodbye
When he took the car
And drove far away
(Pre-Chorus)
You were crying in your bedroom
Thinking of what might have been
Wishing he would come back soon
And say that he’ll never leave
(Chorus)
And you'll say, I’ll stay here forever in your bed
We’re slow dancing to the music in my head
We’ll be talking together and stay up all night
And not go to sleep, until the first sight of light
And you’ll be dancing, with me, and I’ll be in your arms for eternity
And I kiss you, you’ll lay with me, and I will love you for eternity
(V2)
He was your best friend
The way he used to kiss your neck
Good things will always end
Now your left alone in your bed
(Pre-Chorus)
You were crying in your bedroom
Thinking of what might have been
Wishing he would come back soon
And say that he’ll never leave
(Chorus)
And you'll say, I’ll stay here forever in your bed
We’re slow dancing to the music in my head
We’ll be talking together and stay up all night
And not go to sleep, until the first sight of light
And you’ll be dancing, with me, and I’ll be in your arms for eternity
And I kiss you, you’ll lay with me, and I will love you for eternity
(Bridge)
The way he used to talk
About me to his friends
I thought we’re gonna last
Until the bitter end
(Chorus)
I’ll stay here forever in your bed
We’re slow dancing to the music in my head
We’ll be talking together and stay up all night
And not go to sleep, until the first sight of light
And you’ll be dancing, with me, and I’ll be in your arms for eternity
And I kiss you, you’ll lay with me, and I will love you for eternity
