lyrics
How do I write this Song? (Vintage sky)
How do I write a song to explain what it felt like
To be dancing with you in the multi coloured flash lights?
The words won’t scratch the paper, it’s so hard to explain
I cannot process my thoughts to expel out of my brain
Every strum of a guitar,
the harmonious piano keys
Must match the sounds of your voice,
as calming as the ocean seas
You’re already a smash hit in my heart
Can you help me compose our work of art?
Brown eyes, play my symphony
Falsetto pierce my tongue,
let the sequence take over me
Treble, march me into a movement
that will lead my melody,
Into a musicology
that will chorus into tenor strong
How do I write this song?
I sit and stare into space
Attempting to compose a rhythm
from a magical place
Vintage sky rises emanating glory
into freezing cold streets
A piece of paper and my pen
creating the sound of the wild city beats
You’re embedded in my eyes
Why can’t I turn you into a symphonic medley?
Spending minutes of time drinking you in
Trying to press you into my memory
Brown eyes, play my symphony
Falsetto pierce my tongue,
let the sequence take over me
Treble march me into a movement
that will lead my melody,
Into a musicology
that will chorus into tenor strong
How do I write this song?
Every word you spoke to me
Is a distinctive resounding note
Yet as I try to sing it aloud
I become nervous and I choke
Brown eyes, play my symphony
Falsetto pierce my tongue,
let the sequence take over me
Treble, march me into a movement
that will lead my melody,
Into a musicology
that will chorus into tenor strong
How do I write this song?
