song lyrics opinions?

Post by kalicokitty »

So I've started writing a song for my SO. I'm kind of nervous, I've given him poetry of mine before but every attempt I've ever made at writing a song has not ended well. I haven't got a melody yet, just lyrics and a rhythm so far. The middle stanza will eventually serve as the chorus...anyways i was hoping for some opinions and constructive criticism on what i have so far. Thanks!


You and me
Me and you
We go together
Like red
And blue
We light each other
We chase
Away
The monsters
And sadness
The dark
And decay
And I swear

I'll hold you together when you're falling apart
For as long as it takes, til your broken heart
Can stand again

Me and you
You and me
We stand together
Like we're meant
To be
"There is nothing more melodic, than the purring of a cat."

I like that the rhymes are catchy and simple. When I reading it, I was thinking about a really old Disney song, "By the Beautiful Sea", and that rhythm was how I heard the lyrics. It's very sweet. :)
Dance like the Maiden

Think like the Crone
