    Cool First Song - Need Feedback

    Hey guys, this is my first attempt at writing. I hope you like it. ALL criticism is welcomed, whether it be positive or negative. This was written for more of an Acoustic type of genre. And I'm thinking about adding another verse or two, let me know what you think. Enjoy.

    Title: Unititled
    Artist: Clay

    I admire your walk
    Amazed when you talk
    Everything you say
    Takes my breath away
    All the things you do
    When you don't mean to
    It drives me all the way back to you

    [Chorus]
    I've come so far
    It's been so hard
    Not being able to walk with you
    Not being able to talk to you ---> (Kind of like an echo)
    Not being able to see you smile
    Its been such a long while
    Since I've been happy at all..

    You have no idea
    How much you cross my mind
    Just thinking about you
    Gives me a feeling inside
    I can't explain it
    How it makes me feel
    It kinda makes me think
    That this might be real..

    [Chorus]

    The light in your eyes
    Is where the truth lies
    You try to hide the pain
    But you can't help but cry..
    You sit and wonder why
    Everyone says goodbye
    Why the world is so unfair
    And that you want to die..

    But don't despair
    There's someone there
    Someone to love you
    And to take care
    Of all the things
    That trouble you
    To throw away the past
    And see the world anew..

    [Chorus]

    I like it a lot. The sentiments in it are nice, and it flows nicely. I don't think you need another verse.

    Cool

    Thank you so much for your feedback. I really appreciate it. And you really don't think I should add another verse? Do you think maybe I should change up the very last [Chorus] part? I dunno, the only problem I have with it is just the ending. It doesn't seem that "right" to me.

    Well, I think closing on the last verse, maybe with "I've come so far" as an exit refrain would work better than closing with the chorus. Maybe cut the last chorus or move it to before the last verse?

    Hmm, that's actually not a bad idea. I like it. You, my friend, are brilliant.
