We're giving you two lines - one has to start the song and
the other will be used in the chorus, or the bridge if you
have no chorus, or the final verse should you write
something with only verses:

Line 1: "They know who I am"

Line 2: "Ask someone who loves me"

You can write in any style and about any subject you choose.

Think about these two lines. What images or thoughts come
to mind? Once you have your basic concept, go ahead and
lay out your imagery words and then go to town. I wrote the song after reading the newsletter, before reading the forum post.  So ahm stickin' to muh song, pardner.  I wrote what I wrote and I still agree with myself.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group maxwell https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg2-week-4-maxwell/#post-55969 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg2-week-4-maxwell/#post-55968 Fri, 28 Nov 2003 11:21:46 +0000

Line 2(starts the chorus): "Ask someone who loves me"  

Good job (otherwise) ;D

I really like the lyrics for this one , but I must say that
this is a lot different from your normal style and it seems you're meter goes out a bit on the last line of a couple of the end verses , but then you are really good with the melodies so I am possibly talking out my left ear here, if so , my apologies. ::)

I would also only do the chorus every second verse , so it doesn't make the song tooo monotinous.


other wise, much much "nicer" to hear than last weeks !!! ;D

Go well

Copyright ©2003 Martin Hillman

They know who I am
The ones who call me friend
They know who I am
But it's a mystery to me

Chorus:
They know who I am
Ask someone who loves me
They know who I am
But it's a mystery to me

When I've lost my way
In this place we call reality
When there's no place left to stay
They are there to guide me

Chorus:
They know where I am
Ask someone who loves me
They know where I am
But it's a mystery to me

When I wonder what to do
When common sense escapes me
When confused and all alone
They are there to guide me

Chorus:
They know what I am
Ask someone who loves me
They know what I am
But it's a mystery to me

When humanity confounds
And I don't know why I'm here
They show me what I am
More than a face in an empty mirror

Chorus:
They know why I am
Ask someone who loves me
They know why I am
But it's a mystery to me

They know who I am
The ones who call me friend
They know who I am
But it's a mystery to me

Chorus:
They know who I am
Ask someone who loves me
They know who I am
But it's a mystery to me

It's a mystery to me
(fade out)
