Title: Say Goodbye
Post by: Layla on September 24, 2003, 11:24:20 pm

This is the last song i wrote, it took me ages to record it until i realised i could only sing it standing up!
I only recorded the first verse and chorus, hope u like :D

Say Goodbye

She says
‘Throw me the rope I want out of this place
I want to jump on the bus and leave’
And there’s nothing in this world that can hold her back
It’s the way she thinks life should be

So she moves on, new friends, new job
New house, new family.
Leaving her problems behind, thinking they’ll never find her
But how wrong could she be

And why can’t she see that
Life’s supposed to be like that
You can’t keep running away
Maybe once she knows that
Her confidence will grow and
She’ll face her problems and stay

But she, can’t keep running from her past
And she, should know escape just doesn’t last
But then why, does she live in a future of hopes and dreams
Say goodbye, to a she who understands what’s real

But then disaster strikes again she hits a low
Life isn’t as perfect as she wants it to be
She says
‘Throw me the rope I want out of this place
I want to jump on the bus and leave’

And why can’t she see that
Life’s supposed to be like that
You can’t keep running away
Maybe once she knows that
Her confidence will grow and
She’ll face her problems and stay

Chorus

She says
‘My life’s in such a mess
I just can’t handle this
People saying
I can’t keep running away
If everyone goes through this
Guess life can’t be perfect
So I think this time I’ll stay

But she, can’t keep running from her past
And she, should know escape just doesn’t last
But then why, does she live in a future of hopes and dreams
Say goodbye,
Say goodbye,
Say goodbye, to a she who doesn’t know what’s real

well yeah! i have no logic!

Wanna Be Me was the first proper song i wrote (there was sum strange songs that i prefer to forget). I like this song better coz it took less effort! i started writing it in my head, on the school bus, i just stand on the steps and sing to myself. i think people think i'm mad!

Post by: Ms.Redd on September 26, 2003, 01:12:53 pm

nah your not mad!!!

In fact, I was standing at the bus stop today singing your song too!!! HA HA HA

I wanted to sing it on the bus as well, but I thought people might start lookin' at me funny, so I held it in and sang in my head.... but ya know, its never as much fun when ya sing that way!!!

ahh haha, we're a little different there then layla! I love to sing, anywhere also, but people GOTTA hear me! If they don't hear me, no point in singing! HA HA

But I won't just start singing, usually. It mostly starts when someone asks me if I know "this" song or "that" tune... Or if they just outright ask me to sing! LOL!

LOL! I remember when we had that talent contest at your house and I sung 'Never Had A Dream Come True' like an absolute idiot and you sung that Oliver song and you WON! =D

You have such a good voice!

My problem is I have a very classical/soprano kinda voice, whereas yours is nice and poppy =\ lol

I should record me singing 'May It Be' and post! =P


I did once sing and dance to 'Baby One More Time' in a school talent contest though...and I won!!!!!!!! Yay me!!!  :D
