Weather Bed

News Bed

Verse 1

I remember when I saw you last,
you were sitting and laughing on the grass, 
and you asked,
are you happy? 
And i said yes.

And now that seems so long ago,
cause' the grass is gone and replaced by snow,
and you know,
I've been so low since you've moved address 

Chorus

You will always be mine no matter where you are,
no matter what time,
you'll be mine,
you will be till I die,
And I just might die tonight.
I remember those Indigo Nights,
when the moon was up high,
shining bright,
reflecting in your eyes,
and lighting up your smile.

Verse 2

Looking for ways to cure my blues,
i've started taking a leaf out of any book I choose,
and the news - has started recycling all the same shit.

And as the day grows to an end,
you know I'm wondering to myself will I see you again?
In the end,
I guess it depends how fate decides it.

Chorus

You will always be mine no matter where you are,
no matter what time,
you'll be mine,
you will be till I die,
And I just might die tonight.
I remember those Indigo Nights,
when the moon was up high,
shining bright,
reflecting in your eyes,
and lighting up your smile.



Songwriting Task 6 (Indigo Nights)

Verse One

I want you, to sit right down and listen to me baby.
I want you, to take deep breath and don't go crazy,
When I tell you.

It's been so long, ten years together, girl you know me.
It's been so long, ten years together, sad and lonely.
I'm not wrong, I'm being strong.
Can you be strong for me?
As I take this song in to a minor key.

Chorus 

There's no meaning in this life, its up to us to find.
We'll all be dead and rotten, forgotten in a hundred years time.
I  just want to find my place, and makes sense of my life.
But to do that I'm gona' have to ditch the wife.

Verse 2

I want you, to tell the kids whatever cus' I don't care
I want you, to keep in touch, no phycological warfare, Don't feel blue.

I wan't you, to look and see the world that is outside.
I wan't you, to tell all of your friends that I died.
Please don't cry and ask me why, you know what I will say.
I'm gonna turn this song into a minor key.

Chorus 

There's no meaning in this life, its up to us to find.
We'll all be dead and rotten, forgotten in a hundred years time.
I  just want to find my place, and makes sense of my life.
But to do that I'm gona' have to ditch the wife.

Verse 3

Verse Three

I want you, to sit right down and listen to me baby.
I want you, to take deep breath and don't go crazy,
When I tell you.

It's been so long, ten years together, girl you know me.
It's been so long, ten years together, sad and lonely.
I'm not wrong, I'm being strong.
Can you be strong for me?
As I end this song without resolving it properly

Songwriting Task 8 (I Want You)

Verse 

Under, a UV light.
Powered, by my mind.
You, you are mine.
But I, I'm not yours.

Chorus 

Picking up the pieces,
Your heart might loose direction.
Your heart might loose direction 

Picking up the pieces.
I'm bad for your protection.
I'm bad for your protection.


Songwriting Task 7 (strings - Bad For Your Protection)

MY LOVE 

I want to see the world and do it all with you baby, my love. My love.
I want to laugh about the stupid things I do with you, my love. My love.

I know it seem so long, but my love we’ve got to be strong.
Because soon we’ll have all we want. 
And all I want it you. 

Mesmerise me, baby mesmerize me – girl it’s not hard for you to do, that’s why I love you.
I know this distance is stopping co-existence but its not long until were through – and they’ll be no,
Complications, just one on one relation till the loves spilling out of the brim, And then we can begin.
To make it better and we can be together again.
And not just now and then.

One day I want to wake up every single day next to my love. My love.
My friends will ask me where I’m going and I’ll say back to my love. My love.

I can’t remember how it came about, but my love I cant live without.
Because soon we’ll have all we want. 
And all I want it you.
 
Mesmerise me, baby mesmerize me – girl it’s not hard for you to do, that’s why I love you.
I know this distance is stopping co-existence but its not long until were through – and they’ll be no,
Complications, just one on one relation till the loves spilling out of the brim, And then we can begin.
To make it better and we can be together again.
And not just now and then.

Instrumental  

One day I’m going to write a song for you – call it My Love. My Love.


My Love

I went to heaven just the other week,
There’s a Seven Eleven on every street, 
I met God and he’s only there because he won a scratch card.
I met people who once knew fame,
Now they’re signing their autograph and selling their name,
Cause’ the aim of the game upstairs is that you work hard.

When I touched back down on the ground of my home town,
All the people came around,
Hand in hand,
Rejoicing to the sound,
And I heard someone say ‘I’m lonely’.
‘What will await us in the next life?’
‘Is it eternal paradise?’
‘That’d be nice’,
‘I’ll just go tell the wife’,
‘We don’t have to worry about this life’.

So I got back to my nine to five,
And I pushed and I pulled and worked overtime,
Just to buy myself a one-way ticket,
Start living before I die.
It’s not that heaven was all that bad,
It’s just been overstated slightly by some kid and his dad,
And its sad how people live in the future and not the here and now.

I don’t want to see those pearly gates yet,
I’ve got a lifetime,
They’ll be fine,
Still be there after I die,
On a double yellow line next to a no parking sign.
Until then I’ll find some meaning,
To this meaningless life,
I’ll take my time,
Enjoy the sun that shines,
And lie beneath the indigo nights.


And if the winds of change don’t blow me far away,
I guess I’ll have to wait another day.
Get back to work trapped in the same routine that grinds me down,
Whilst dreaming of a place,
That’s populated entirely by,
Angles, by angels far away.
(I went to heaven just the other week and there’s a seven eleven on every street).
