This Broken Heart

The way things used to be/
Haunt my every dream/
Something deep inside me says/
To let it go/
But I still cling to/
These promises of hope/

Chorus
But how can I be happy/
When I feel so cold/
And how can I smile/
As the world grows old/
And we can talk about religion/
And we can talk about the signs/
But that won't heal this broken heart of mine/

Clasping fingers and whispers in the dark/
Hold me captive; these memories in my heart/
What a beautiful decision/
To leave me stranded here/
But I know You never left me/
'Cause You still dry all my tears/

Chorus

I'll come home if You want me/
I'll return to You/
Let me fall upon Your shoulder/
And hear You say You love me too/
Because I didn't mean to leave You/
But something beckoned me to go/
But now I've returned to look You in the eyes/
'Cause You have healed this broken heart of mine/

This is such a good song man, when you started strumming at the end I could picture how you'd sing it and you did exactly what I was thinking lol. In my head I was thinking "Cmon, sing like I'm imagining here." And you sure as hell delivered. Good work!

How do you write such good songs? Do you just make alot of songs and eventually stumble upon something good?

[PaulMPutman]

I can't say that I have to try too hard on any song because if I can't write it easily--if it doesn't just flow, it's not time to write a song. So yes, good songs just come. They end up bad if I try to force it or if I have no inspiration and try to write one anyway.

Thank you for your comments! I appreciate them.
