Verse – Chorus – Verse – Chorus – Verse – Bridge – Chorus - Chorus
Wrote these lyrics to an instrumental for a friend. I'm concerned that they lack "punch" and they don't go anywhere storywise. Would like input and advice.
SEE "FINISHED SONGS" section for this song with music. Thanks...
VERSE 1:
Every day I think about the day I left you there.
Waving from the porch with a warm wind blowing.
Every night I go to bed and pray that I don’t dream,
That dream about you finding someone else to hold you.
CHORUS:
Never felt quite this lonely before. -- Never felt quite so scared.
Never felt quite so inadequate. -- So totally unprepared.
VERSE 2:
Well, lately, I’ve been thinking that I never should have gone.
Lately I’ve been wonderin if you miss me darling.
I’ve come to the conclusion that I wasn’t meant to roam.
I've been thinkin that it's time for me to set my face toward home.
CHORUS 2:
Never felt quite so lonely. -- Never felt quite so afraid.
A dark cloud’s hanging over me. -- Like a debt that remains unpaid.
VERSE 3:
I’m afraid to call to see if you still think of me.
What if it turns out that you have found another?
What if it turns out that our love wasn’t meant to be?
Was loving me a spell that you’re no longer under?
CHORUS 3:
Never felt quite this lonely. -- Never felt quite this blue.
A dark cloud hanging over me. -- The thought of losing you.
CHORUS 4:
Never felt quite this lonely. -- Never felt quite so scared.
Feels like I’m a little boy again, -- Totally unprepared
BRIDGE:
A coward dies a thousand deaths, -- A brave man dies but once.
A winner tries to break the tie. -- A loser always punts.
CHORUS 5:
Never felt quite this lonely. -- Never been this afraid.
A dark cloud’s hanging over me. -- Like a debt that must be paid.
