Post songs that you wrote and composed here!

Since their are lots of "post your poem here" threads here, I thought I'd make this thread. A song is of course, technically different from a poem 'coz it has a melody.

Do post your own songs here! YOu may just put the lyrics or add the chords if you like. :)

Ok here's one of mine:


Stumble


The path that I’m walking is so long

So rocky, so narrow

Your path is so wide

You reached the endpoint

When I am barely halfway

Couldn’t you have waited for me

Would it be too much to ask

That you stop for a while and help me



Chorus: [As I/That’s why] stumble every step of the way

Trying to get away from a past that won’t fade

The more I walk fast, the more I fall

I wonder if I’ll ever see the finish line at all.



You think I’m too slow, too weak

That you can’t afford to lose your precious time

Even for just a while

But if you try walking my path

Then you’ll see through my eyes

That my road is not as smooth as yours

The rocks are way bigger and heavier out here

(repeat Chorus)


Bridge: Why don’t you try walking down here

Then maybe, just maybe you’ll see

Why I stumble so much

And that I can’t help it

No I can’t help it

[Lei_Shiyizu]

and here's another:


The Candle


It glows, it lights, it mesmerizes

It comes in many shapes

Oh my wind, don’t knock it down

Let it light for a while

Sooner or later it will fall

And some darkness will descend

But for now, this candle so stubborn

Wants the world to see its’ soul



Chorus: Beneath the shine it cries

Yes it weeps for no one sees

How tired it is, burning all night

Just to make you happy



When you take a closer look

That’s only when you’ll understand

It’s single glow in the dark night

Against the hundreds of stars above

It shines where it wants to

In that deep lonely place

It prays and wishes for many

Doesn’t care anymore on what you’ll say.

[repeat chorus)


(Bridge) Soon it’s light will die out

It relishes the thought

But it knows it has burned all it can

Isn’t that all that matters in the end



Beneath the shine it cries

Yes it weeps for no one sees

How tired it is, burning all night

Just to make you happy

I'M LETTING YOU GO (July 1996)
METROPOP SONG FESTIVAL 1996 SONG ENTRY
Artist: Ms. Jamie Rivera
Composer: Meanne Mijares
Arranger: Jesse Lucas
STAR RECORDS

It pains my heart to see you go away
Cause I thought you'll always stay
I just can't believe it's true
Cause I'm still in love with you

I'm gonna make it through without you
For I'll come to see the light
Won't be living in my dreams
And what's far from my sight

Refrain:
I'm going to miss you, ooh, baby
Gonna miss everything about you
Gonna miss your love

Chorus
So now I'm letting you go
It's the right thing for me to do
Though it hurts me so
It's so hard I know
I'm letting you go

You'll always be a special part of me
Though we're not meant to be
Knowing you I won't forget
Loving you I'll never regret

(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental)
(Repeat Chorus)

CODA:
I'm letting you go
