There must be something about movies and me becoming inspired...I was watching Music & Lyrics this evening and was quite enjoying it but then I had this urge to pick up my guitar. This was still during the movie! So I picked up my guitar and had a little something there so I got to my computer and started to type up the few lyrics I had and ended up with a couple of verses...and so the process went on until I had a whole song written, then I tried to record it all the way through. Finally, on attempt number 7 it turned out ok (though I'm still not quite satisfied with it)!!
And so within about 30 minutes I wrote this...a bit strange and thrown together as usual with me but I'm usually better at getting something done fast rather than dwelling on it for days I think. For anyone that's interested here are the lyrics and the song to listen to if you'd like too.
Tread softly
Tread softly
Tread softly when you enter my life
Place each step with care
Noting the places where
The cracks of the past still remain
Tread softly
Tread softly
Tread softly as you handle my heart
Handle it well
Seeing how it swells
As you dance with your hand holding mine
Tread softly
Tread softly
Tread softly with each touch of your hand
Know that in each touch
You say so much
That your lips may never even tell
There are wounds you can’t see
Deep inside me
Please don’t give up on me till they’re healed
and I’m free
Tread softly
Tread softly
Tread softly as I open my heart
There’s still something I must say
Before the next day
Brings the fear that you’ll leave me alone
I love you
I love you
I love you with all my heart
Though it’s broken and scarred
And still sometimes gets hard
It’s yours till the end of time
So tread softly

P.S. Only a preview is showing here...I had a feeling this might happen. You need to listen at the imeem webpage I think which is a bummer. If anyone knows another way to upload and embed mp3s please let me know, thanks :o)
