Silent Power

For those going thru what I'm going thru:

 

SILENT POWER

 

VERSE

In a bit of time I will soon smile

And say u did me favours by teaching me denial

Just around the corner I may just say your name

And it won’t pull so hard at my heart’s string knowing you just weren’t okay

 

In a bit of time I will face the day

I wont sit and cry each time I wish that you had stayed

In just a little while I may not even know your name

For if you’re on my mind in a few years time I would go insane

 

CHORUS

So I call on my Silent Power

And I claim all of my Strength

And I ask the Angels for Sun-filled Showers

To cleanse my soul again

So I call on my Silent Power

Just to pull me out of bed

When our wishes had fallen from the Heaven’s above

Where was your Love in the end?

 

VERSE

In a bit of time I will soon forget

The light all around you on the day when we first met

Just around the corner it may not hurt so bad

Knowing the love we’d found was unlike we’d ever had

 

In a bit of time I will face the day

I wont sit and cry each time wishing that you had stayed

In just a little while I may not even know your name

For if you’re on my mind in a few years time I would surely go insane

 

CHORUS

So I call on my Silent Power

And I claim all of my Strength

And I ask the Angels for Sun-filled Showers

To cleanse my soul again

So I call on my Silent Power

Just to get you out of my head

When our wishes had fallen from the Heaven’s above

Where was your Love in the end?

 

BRIDGE TO END

Not too long ago I used to look up to the stars

Would whisper your name when I say

My spirit is always with you

Where ever on Earth you are.

In a bit of time the light will shine from me

When I can look back and smile

Knowing our love wasn’t meant to be.

Two verses, chorus, bridge to end. Not all that many words, I don't think. If the music is just as good, it could indeed be a hit.

 

Dave Matthews' "The Space Between" is a song with an awful lot of words to me - couldn't recite any of 'em back to you to save my life. And there's lots of long songs around, with or without a lot of lyrics.

 

All depends on the finished product, I'd say.

Sometimes it's the act of writing a song that is meaningful, not neccesarily the putting it to music and selling it part.

True indeed - just responding to BadMan's comment regarding hit potential.

Dyermaker is correct - the music, the melody, the money is irrelevant... It's purpose is to share the feeling of Heartbreak and Silent Power with u all... To remember to grab the positives out of a negative situation by honoring the spirit...

 

Badman, nice name - it gives me a little giggle... Fame and fortune means nothing compared to the value of ur soul... Agree? For your benefit, I hope so...

Play Stairway to Heaven backwards, and judge for yourself.

Hi all,

I am new to this board, so I'm not sure if this song has already been posted. I'm currently going through a pretty bad break up as well, and this song somewhat helps me with coping with my emotional stress:

 

Doing just fine - Boyz 2 Men

 

There was a time when I thought life was over and out

When you went away from me

My dying heart made it hard to breathe

Would sit in my room

Because I didn't want to have to go out

And see you walking by

One look and I'd break right down and cry

 

Now you say that you've made a big mistake

Never meant to take your love away

But you can save your tired apologies

'Cause it may seem hard to believe

But..........

 

Chorus:

I'm doin' just fine

Getting along very well

Without you in my life

I don't need you in my life

I'm doin' just fine

Time made me stronger

You're no longer on my mind

 

You were my earth

My number one priority

I gave me love to only you

Anything you'd ask of me

I would do

But somewhere down the road

You felt a change in the weather

And told me that you had to journey on

A kiss in the wind and your love was gone

 

Now you say you never meant to play your games

Girl, don't you know it's far too late

Because you let our love just fall apart

You no longer have a heart

 

Chorus

 

When you said goodbye

I felt so all alone

There were times at night I couldn't sleep

My heart was much to weak to make it on my own

Baby after all the misery

And pain you put me through

So unfair to me girl

You're no longer my world

And I ain't missin' you at all

 

Chorus
