Blue Christmas       (Elvis Cover with extra original lyrics)

Please Come Home For Christmas

VERSE 1:

He ran into an old friend yesterday
They talked about shared memories and the good old days
Her name came up and he had to hide a tear
It's been a year

CHORUS:

On the other side of goodbye
Is a lonely man who's still wondering why
Trying to forget her
Knowing that he'll never
So why even try
On the other side of goodbye


Otherside Of Goodbye Coursera Songwriting Class Project - Lesson 2

Other Side Of Goodbye

VERSE 1: (Stable)

He ran into an old friend yesterday
They talked about their memories of the good old days
Her name came up and he had to hide a tear
It's been a long and lonely year

CHORUS: (Unstable) unstable because:  Odd number of lines (5) 

On the other side of goodbye
Stands a lonely man who's still wondering why  <---partial instability due to line length
Trying to forget her
Knowing that he'll never
So why should he try?  <----main unstable line (shortest, asking question) 




Coursera Lesson 3 Stable Verse Unstable Chorus Otherside Of Goodbye

TITLE:  I Could Have Been So Much More
Lyrics:  Henry Kozak  3/5/2014

Verse 1

Days are getting colder now
The nights don't seem so long
The world outside is upside down
Everything is wrong

Verse 2

The things that I could count on
Seem to have disappeared
The one I love has gone away
And left me here in tears

Chorus

You can say goodbye if you want to
And that I'm not the one you're looking for
But if you gave me half a chance
I could have been so much more

Verse 3

Just like in a dream
My wishes came true
When you walked into into my life
Why did it have to end so soon

Verse 4

Maybe I'll forget you
It will be hard to do
But I know my life won't be the same
Because I'll be there without you

Chorus 2

You can say goodbye if you want to
And that I'm not enough for you
But if you gave me half a chance
I could have been so much more for you

Bridge

I could have been the rock
For you to lean on when times got tough
I could have laughed and cried with you
When days were good and when days were not
I could have been your friend
The one that loved you till the end

Final Verse

Yeah, I could have been this
And I could have been that
I could have been so much more
