Default Reach Out

It's dangerous where we're at right now
Taking it in turns to start the rows
See I know you oh so well
Which makes it harder to leave
It's a scary place to be we know
At the end but not letting go
I've got your things
and they're staying with me
All of us huddled round the bar
the tables have gone and it's left a mark
With no one near me I can drown myself
And you can't say anything
Leave me to die I say with a sigh
I don't know cos I haven't said goodbye
I rub your ego and you rub my back
While it's all going down the sink....

(Down the sink now)

CHORUS
Reach out and touch me tonight
Not there, not there yet but you'll be alright
Reach out and touch me tonight
Not there, not there yet but you'll be alright

Sparkling water is all I'm having
Which arse tonight will I be grabbing?
Not yours, cos you're the one I like
Jealousy is new to me
I've felt it now so I'm free
Within myself and my rights
Plastic wrapping sugar coated
Think of a love song tonight I've wrote it
Glass in hand putting on a show
Freedom fighter morning rewriter
Object of my desire
Come close and I won't let you go

CHORUS
Reach out and touch me tonight
Not there, not there yet but you'll be alright
Reach out and touch me tonight
Not there, not there yet but you'll be alright

I like it alot. The only problem I have with it is,

Jealousy is new to me
I've felt it now so I am free

It seems kind of forced, maybe i'm instead of I am? Maybe its just how you talk thing, but it doesn't sound right to me.

This song was made up on the spot... I usually do that for a lot of the songs I put up on MB, cos it's easier to think of new songs when typing because you haven't got the hassle of scribbling out lines etc.

I've recorded the song down now Hobo. It'll be up at:

www.myspace.com/imjustsingin

In the next ten minutes or so, provided myspace doesn't go all **** on us again.

I structured the lyrics and removed a section, to make it a better length. I changed a bit of the chorus too, to improve the musical phrasing. Now the lyrics are:


VERSE

It's dangerous where we're at right now
Taking it in turns to start the rows
See I know you so well
Which makes it harder to leave

It's a scary place to be we know
At the end but not letting go
I've got your things
They'll be staying with me


VERSE

All of us huddled round the bar
the tables have gone and it's left a mark
Drown myself here
And you can't say anything

Leave me to die I say with a sigh
That’s all you’re getting, I’m not saying goodbye
Pour my emotions with the ***s and dregs
Down the sink....


CHORUS

Reach out
And touch me tonight
Not there
Yet but you'll be alright
Reach out
And touch me tonight
I’ll wait impatiently
For…
For…


VERSE

Plastic wrapping sugar coated
Think of a love song tonight I've wrote it
Glass in hand
Putting on a show

Freedom fighter, morning rewriter
Object of my desire
Come close
And I won't let you go

CHORUS

Reach out
And touch me tonight
Not there
Yet but you'll be alright
Reach out
And touch me tonight
I’ll wait impatiently
For…
For…
