In Your Eyes
Just an experiment. I am not a songwriter but i woke up in the middle of the night with one musical phrase creeping thru my brain, fell off to sleep again but now hours later i have my very first "complete" song-writing attempt....written for an EDM score, 4/4 time, the tempo intersects between house and trance, around 125 bpm so that it can go either way. I can also half imagine a piano version....
Wish i knew all the right terms for vocal pauses, breaks or cuts. Words followed by dots(...) use a whole 4-beat bar and a comma takes a beat. i hope all of that extra annotation doesn't irritate. (edit, i took out most of the "annotations" so that it's easier to read...also added a small but important word that i left out before)
If this is not all that great, please be kind but also please don't encourage me to do anymore!
It's all in your eyes, there's so much there for me to see; all truth that i will ever need to know
-verse 1-
Eyes...your eyes cannot lie
When i feel them search me and touch me inside
I'm wakened by the sadness and the pain that you can't hide
-verse 2-
Arms...you hold me so tight
While your own heart was breaking, you turned on the light
that warmed me like the sun and made me know i'm the only one
-bridge-
The truth that i have learned, in your eyes
Love will always burn, in your eyes
-chorus 1-
Eyes on fire, let me see
Pain...no one can see but me
But I know, now I claim the prize
The fire of love that burns, in your eyes
(repeat chorus 1)
-verse 3-
-possibly a breakdown for these 2 lines-
I know i am the flame, and i won't lay you down with blame
for all the shadows in your heart...
.....
-instrumental rebuilding/uplifting-
.....
I know it's not a lie, when your kiss sets me on fire
And you hold me like we've never been apart
(just hold me like we'll never be apart)
-chorus 1-
Eyes on fire, let me see
Pain...no one can see but me
I know, now I claim the prize
The fire of love that burns, in your eyes
-chorus 2-
Hearts on fire, let me be
Love, that wants to set you free
Fan the fire that gives me life
The fire of love that burns, in your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes...
-instrumental-
