I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...
I wrote this during a lunch break. The lyrics were supposed to match Ralf's tune. When I was done I discovered that Ralf had altered his composition in the meantime so my lyrics would not fit at all. Normally, when someone asks me to write a matching text to his tune I'd expect the composition to be finished. Doesn't make much sense otherwise, does it?
This is my text (somebody there who'd like to set it to music?):
I've got the feeling
life passes me by
I am waiting and wasting my time
yeah I've been waiting, waiting for you,
the love of my life,
my dream that has always been prime
but where am I today?
I can't say
when I dream you
everything's fine
and our love seems to light up the sky
no rain, no bad weather
always sunshine
while we would enjoy flying high
but where am I today?
you're the ruin
you're the ruin of my life
you're the ruin
you're the ruin of my life
[instrumental interlude]
I try to get a
grip on my life
trying to get you out of my mind
I try to find a
reason to strive
for fulfillment of any kind
but where am I today?
I can't say
you're the ruin
you're the ruin of my life
you're the ruin
you're the ruin of my life
...
don't know
where I'm going
ohoho
don't know
where I'm going
ohoho
