sitting at home alone strumming my guitar and this just kind of came out what do you think? suggestions for a name. if any one is interested ill post the words and chords later

ok here are the words and chords

D                         C                       G               D
I'm sure some where that the sun still shines
I see a ray of hope in the ties that bind
I know somewhere a love still burns
against the storm it still stands firm

chorus
C                 G                   D
hope and promises we keep
as you sow so shall you reap
words that hurt can be so sweet
like an innocent child as she sleeps

D           C                    G                    D
I know somewhere faith is still strong
I'm sure some one still knows right from wrong
I'm sure out there in a world so mean
there is still a place where a child can dream

chorus

I hope that when the time is right
that you and I will see the light
and maybe when the time has come
we wont regret the things we've done

chorus

ok here goes still suffering a little from the crud but managed to get through with out hacking up a lung

ok so here is the do over, some of my critics complained about the chorus (  you know who you are and I thank you for that its the reason I post here) I must say I agree with them so here's the second go round . I tried to record it but I am still suffering from the crud and sounded bad even by my standards so you will have wait a few more days to hear it. that is if this version passes the muster. Let me know what you think

(D)                                 (G)         (A)
knew a boy who was torn in half
(A)                   (G)     (A)             (G)       (D)
watched him sail away on a sunken raft

he lost his mind on a sea of dreams
tried to cleanse his soul in a mountain stream

the prodigal son who would not come home
he was bound and chained to the seeds he sown

chorus
(D)      (G)           (A)       (G)                              (D)
now there's a broken branch in the family tree
             (G)             (A)                    (G)     (D)
yet the tree still grows   it will still be here
            (G)          (D)
when those feelings go
D)      (G)           (A)       (G)                              (D)
now there's a broken branch in the family tree
             (G)             (A)                    (G)     (D)
yet the tree still grows   it will still stand tall
            (G)          (D)
in the winter snow

he could not deny that mistakes were made
but the token queen he could not persuade

closed his ears and he shut the door
that's when I realized it was never more

now life's a two way street
I can only pray that someday we meet
chorus

I don't have a name for this one yet and there may be a another verse added. fighting a summer chest cold and heading to work tomorrow so may be a few days before I post a recording of it. this song will probably not make sense to most of you but to those that know me it will

(D)                                 (G)         (A)
knew a boy who was torn in half
(A)                   (G)     (A)             (G)       (D)
watched him sail away on a sunken raft

he lost his mind on a sea of dreams
tried to cleanse his soul in a mountain stream

the prodigal son who would not come home
he was bound and chained to the seeds he sown

chorus
(D)      (G)           (A)       (G)                              (D)
not a day goes by         that I don't wonder why
             (G)             (A)                    (G)     (D)
it still makes me blue because every day
            (G)          (D)
I still think of you

he could not deny that mistakes were made
but the token queen he could not persuade

closed his ears and he shut the door
that's when I realized it was never more

now there's a broken branch in the family tree
and a world of love some may never see

chorus

its not the cover song of the month  but I had been working on this one and thought I post it. they say music helps you through the tough times I don't know, when I get down I don't feel like playing but this is a song I can play when I am going through a rough patch
