I actually wrote both of these things with music that I truly like, which is rare. Me, guitar, and the moon. :) I need to write another chunk in this first one, but I've not been able to come up with anything for another stanza or a bridge. If you have any topics that I could play around with that seem like they'd fit in, please let me know. :)


Center of the Dawn

Saw a face in the moon tonight
Tips his hat, I wonder why he's so polite
Sittin on top of the world,
Or was it just my rooftop sofa?

-chorus- I pull out my rubberband guitar
Grin and blush and laugh with the stars
I hold my breath for the waking of the sun
So I can dance in the center of the dawn

Inkblot sky yawns above me,
I serenade the moon
Firefly strings of twinkle lights
Cardboard fiddle and bow of kite-strings

(back to chorus)



--------

If you knocked on my door today
I would turn and run away
I trusted you when you said
That I could follow wherever you led

And now my heart still hurts
And I can't take you back
These wounds run too deep,
I'm not ready yet

I could never deny
These tears you made me cry
And all the sorries you could ever say
Could never erase them all away


EDIT:

I thought of another verse today for Center of the Dawn. Like the others, it just kind of came to me bit by bit when I started dreaming myself into the song:

So here's the whole thing as it sits now:

Center of the Dawn

Saw a face in the moon tonight
Tipped his hat, I wonder why he's so polite
Sittin on top of the world,
Or was it just my rooftop sofa?

-chorus- I pull out my rubberband guitar
Grin and blush and laugh with the stars
I hold my breath for the waking of the sun
So I can dance in the center of the dawn

Closed my eyes when the breeze came by
Pats my head, "Hello," he says, I heave a sigh
Sittin on the floor of the heavens
Or was it just my magic carpet?

Inkblot sky yawns above me,
I serenade the moon
Firefly strings of twinkle lights
Cardboard fiddle and bow of kite-strings

(back to chorus)
