Thanks easybeat, noted and agree, random words were fun, so yep will definately do again.  In the meantime, any song suggests or a song you have written with the above in it, eg a day of the week or a number?

Re: SUGGESTIONS: JUNE 2022 FEATURED SONG OF THE MONTH

Ok here is a song I wrote this morning - my wife just left yesterday to go to California to be with my daughter. I think I was missing her already ! smile

I chose the day of the Week !

Once in a lifetime by Jim Kenyon


Verse 1


.




[C] Monday morning is [Em] here once more


And it’s [Dm]two cups of coffee and I’m [G] out the door


[C] gotta get to work, though I [Em] don’t want to go


‘cause your [Dm] on my mind, as I’m [G] sure you know




Verse 2


.




[C] It begins to rain, but [Em]I just smile


‘because I’m[Dm] thinking of you [G]all the while


[C] your love is like a [Em] summer breeze


You know , it [Dm]warms my heart and puts [G] my mind at ease


.




Chorus


[Am]When I first met you, you took my [Em]breath away


And you [Dm] still do it to me every [G] single day



and the [Am]way you touch me tells me how [Em]much you care


and let’s me [Dm]know that this is a once in a [G]lifetime love we [C]share




Verse 3


[C] Some times gentle and [Em]sometimes wild


It seems that [Dm] everything you do just [G]makes me smile


Oh you’re the [C] center of my life, I [Em] hope you see


God knows [Dm]you’re the best thing that’s ever[G] happened to me




.


Chorus


[Am]When I first met you, you took my [Em]breath away


And you [Dm] still do it to me every [G] single day


and the [Am]way that you touch me tells me how [Em]much you care


and let’s me [Dm]know that this is a once in a [G]lifetime love we [C]share


yeah, [G]this is a once in a lifetime [Dm]love we [C]share


yeah, [G]this is a once in a lifetime [Dm]love we [C]share


yeah, [G]this is a once in a lifetime [Dm]love we [C]share





Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.

"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except only the the best." - Henry Van Dyke

Re: SUGGESTIONS: JUNE 2022 FEATURED SONG OF THE MONTH

I've been writing a song which has both days and numbers in it; I'll get a wriggle on and finish it, but tentative title is "Today is the day"; about how we need to change our habits or the world will (essentially) end. I'll finish it off and post it up.

Cheers
