Story behind the song
I've written lots of lyrics before, but this is the first lyric I've written for music, i.e. the music came before the lyric.
It still needs some work...But I was just so excited about it, I had to record it before it was totally finished. I hope to re-record in the next week or so.
Lyrics
The Real Me
Copyright 2006
Intro
You say you never knew the real me
You say it’s clear it wasn’t meant to be
V1
You were the one that pushed me away
You were the one who said you’d stay
You said you’d stay
Chorus
You wonder why…
You never could see
The real me
Could never let you see
V2
You were the one who caused me sorrow
Left me behind but told me to follow
I tried
Tried to follow
Chorus
You wonder why…
You never could see
The real me
Could never let you see
V3
I just wanna believe you loved me
Held my breath, but didn’t hold you tightly
Long to hold you
Chorus
You wonder why…
You never could see
The real me
Wish you tried to see
Outro
I knew, I was just a play thing
When you left, did you see me breaking?
