Very simple - it's a good feeling when you get that piece that's been swiiming around in your brain onto paper.

Nice piece - I like the repetition idea between first and second lines - makes the song very clear.

As for the two voices idea I'd have the questions asked by one voice and the answers given by a second. I'd then have both voices close the song.

Good stuff - I really like it.

Some interesting rhymes including the previously mentioned "sofa/hoped for" Very clever indeed.

I like the idea of have two voices his and hers.

That could work well with this piece That way you could have the " I remember every moment" parts done by both in harmony.

I still don't really feel like this one is complete yet, so I might look into that!
what a relief to get something like that into a song finally, right?Oh yeah, big time!!!

Thanks again!
See you next week.

very love/happy... nothing bad, of course :wink:
I'd like to know if you want to let it all be said by one person or should some of the 'my dear..' parts be from the one and some from the other person?

I like this very much: So I'd like to stand,
On the shore with you again and yes it fits well in here, I think. what a relief to get something like that into a song finally, right? :D

there's one place where it all gets a bit bitter though(at least as I read it, and yes, I love that): My Dear, do you regret?
The times you've settled for second best? ..what else? ... i thought rhyming 'sofa' and 'hoped for' was clever;)

well done. :)

It seems appropriate for wrapping this up:


My Dear

My Dear, do you remember?
Remember when we met?
Remember that first Christmas
In that tiny maisonette?

My Dear, do you forget?
Forget that old purple sofa?
The trips to the pictures
Or the future we once hoped for?

I remember every moment,
My Dear.


My Dear, do you believe?
Believe me when I whisper?
Or in something greater
When this is all over?

My Dear, do you regret?
The times you've settled for second best?
The things we've said in anger
Or maybe just not confessed?

I remember every moment,
I wouldn't change one for the world.
My Dear.

So I'd like to stand,
On the shore with you again
On another windy day
And smile
And take your hand
And fly away.
