    Im wishing on a star
    For the key to your heart

    Hi! Is this a country/folk song? I mean... It seems like a break-up country song. I like it. If you write country music, keep in mind the fact that country songs have a storyline. So, the first verse can be about the happy days you and him spent together and now he's having a great time with someone else. I imagine the 2nd verse being something like: " I'm fascinated by you baby / I don't know why can't you see / That I'd give everything to knw what we / Could be " . I don't know. That was just an idea, but maybe you can use it. ^_^

    I think this would work well as a first verse and then make a chorus using the whole wishing on a star idea brought up in the first line. The chorus should be relatively simple because its just the main point of the song so it needs to shine light on that main point and that should probably be the name of the song. This would work because your verses would give the main idea of the song and back your chorus while your chorus becomes the almost cry out for help. So, I keep wishing and wishing upon a star hoping that you will come so far but all you do is leave me with scares now I am left with this broken heart. I like this verse your inspiring me to write a similar song.
    There is not enough space or time to truly let the song unwind

    You were my knight
    In shining armor
    To hold me tight
    Is what you had to offer
    To protect me right
    And uphold my honor

    Im wishing on a star
    For the key to your heart
    When I see you with her
    I can almost feel the hurt
    And then I remember
    What I could never forget
    The reason we parted
    Is the same reason we met
    Mind if i steal this? Lol

    Hi !

    This chorus offers many possibilities. As Tania says it could be a country/folk songs, but it could also be very rhythmical, reflecting passion and
    anger , feeling bad and sorry at the same time. I think the chorus tells already clearly what the message of the song is all about: your lover you only just have met is
    hopping from one adventure to the next, a Story of Trial and Error, "but how could I forget the reason we had broken up, because we only met"
    Well done indeed, WishinonaStar! You could refer to" the reason we had broken up" in whatever direction you want the song to go:
    e.g. Are you feeling guilty, or do you believe he hasn't taken you serious? Why can't you find the key to his heart?
    Rickey's suggestion is of course also possible, but certainly not the only one. He doesnot say so either.
    Just keep going.
    Make different verses and see what you like best. Remember, why the thought of writing this came up in your mind!
    It might help

    Unless your managers and recording studios want you to deliver tomorrow morning,lol

    Nice lyrics. Ought to really be either verse 1,2 or 3. Then come up with a chorus, a catchy one, just like the verse. Guess what, at the end of the day, you will be having a nice song.
