    Default I've walked these streets

    I wrote this song for a musical i'm writing called Into The Streets. I just can't think of anything good for the last line. It has to ryhme with sing, any suggestions?

    I’ve walked these streets as long as I have lived
    I know no other world or what is to give
    I’ve seen a million faces, watch and walk on by
    Never have they helped me, never have I wondered why

    The lust for fame and fortune never dies
    Did you see that amazement in my eyes
    I’d never contemplated
    Saying goodbye to what I know
    To leave this rough life on the streets to be part of the show
    To be in the show

    So, are you coming? (spoken)

    Well… I’ve walked these streets as long as I have lived
    I know no other world or what it has to give
    The bins aren’t full of chances
    And I do so love to sing
    I'd love to come and join you

    I might change it to 'what will my future bring?'

    They're ok...


    Too poppy lyrically, too many rhyming couplets.

    Yeah,I think your right, but the music isn't at all poppy.

    I wouldn't know as I can't hear it

    I was commenting on the lyrics
