Poem Commentary

This is a lyric that I rewrote for the American Idol songwriting comp. a couple of years ago.

Ordinary Life (AI Version)

Ordinary Life (AI Version)




(Chorus)


Sometimes in the middle

Of an ordinary life

Love hands you a fairy tale

It doesn't matter how

Life's treated you so far

Or if you've seen dreams fail



(Verse 1)

You'll get memories to treasure

They'll bring you feelings you can't measure

Wanting something so, you feel it in your soul

Let your dreams can take you there

And they will make you whole

So don't let them go

Babe don't you know




(Repeat Chorus)


Sometimes in the middle

Of an ordinary life

Love hands you a fairy tale

It doesn't matter how

Life's treated you so far

Or if you've seen dreams fail



(Verse 2)


You've been standing on the threshold

So step on through the door and watch it all unfold

Your heart, your soul, and your dreams will be your guide

So set your spirit free, don't lock it up inside

You've gotta try, so spread your wings and fly  


(Bridge)

Can't you see, it's happening

It's all right there before you

So reach on up and hold on tight

And let the dream flow through you



(Final Chorus)



Sometimes in the middle

Of an ordinary life

Love hands you a fairy tale

It's what you do with what your given

That will point you down that road

This was awesome! This was the best one I read tonight. I wish I could hear how it sounds in a song. I love the lyrics. I like your image too, keep the songs coming

Thanks so much for your kind words. If you'd like you can listen to the music at this link. I hope it doesn't detract from the words LOL... but I like how it turned out... http://soundclick.com/share?songid=6409427

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
