Topic: a song i couldn't write
Last night I was listnin' to some waylon and willie (and this was not just another good hearted woman, luchenbach, record it was the actual waylon and willie record), and as usual it made me jealous and put me in the mood to write (dang you willie nelson lol), but for some reason i got the worst case of writer's block.... so finally after i'd used up half my notebook i wrote this little ditty about not being able to write a song...
it has a willie nelsonish type rythym by the way.
I've wasted too much paper
Tryin' to write a song that just won't come
Seems I've lost my way
To wherever songs come from
But if I was a little sadder
Or if the voice inside my mind
Would remind who I was
and who I am just one more time,
CHORUS
Then I would write a sad song,
That would make the whole world cry,
Then maybe I'd feel better
And could go back to getting by
This pen that I'm holding
Just won't turn out no more songs
I'm not sure if I'm just up too late
Or if my blues are finally gone
But if I could just remember
Everything I want to say
Or all the feelings I'd forgotten
About my younger days
CHORUS
Well anyway there it is, not much for the time i put into trying to get it to come out but it is what it is
