Ocean Sky

I think I've polished this a good bit now...I suppose I'm happy with it. With this song, I really want people to find their own meaning in it. There is a true meaning but it's obscured, anyone think they can find it?

Bound to earth we wish to fly,
Do you think you should?,
If you see through the clouds,
Would it do any good?

These wings you want,
come at a price,
free from ties that bind to earth,
cutting away with one single slice.

Stars float in the ocean above,
leading to worlds beyond comprehension,
but this earth we have is warm,
and filled with such tension.

Such a thing seems like heaven,
but what is heaven when you leave,
all of those you love without tellin’?

Stars upon this ocean,
and waves upon this sky,
a dream of something more,
a dream set so high,
But why do you want,
to say goodbye?

You sit and think,
of all you lost,
but is flying away any better,
even at a such cost?

These wings you want,
come at a price,
free from ties that bind to earth,
cutting away with one single slice.

Don’t pretend,
that I’m not your friend,
because I will be your wings,
and sing like the angel sings

So don’t fly,
don’t let out a sigh,
because I will be by your side

Friends are here,
even when you cry,
and all you can do is hope,
or set off and fly.

Stars upon this ocean,
and waves upon this sky,
a dream of something more,
a dream set so high,
But please don’t,
Say goodbye.

Perfect Picture

So it's a complete song...but it's not polished yet. I was hoping to run it by Alec and see what he would suggest. Now to elaborate on it a bit. This song began to come to me when I was taking up the garbage to the top of my drive way, and I looked over onto my neighbors drive way and I saw it...the perfect picture. A few leaves strewn here or there, a lone light off to the side and inbetween a pair of trees was the moon with accents of orange and pink from the setting sun. I just felt like it was so amazingly perfect that I wished I could stand there and watch it forever (So I took a picture of it, hopefully it comes out and I can post it along with this song ^^ that would be cool. But It was the last picture so I was a little afraid it might not come out...) I hope to make it all rhyme though XD It's kinda funky right now.

Perfect Picture


Would not it be magical,
to find that perfect picture?
Snap a moment in time,
where the beauty of it would last
in your memory forever.

this love you cannot teach,
As it snows on the beach,
Angels sing for you two alone,
and your spirits will have flown.
With this moment so perfect,
Should we question the unknown?

The moon just right,
leaves fly and swirl,
as a dove sit in a tree
like a guardian angel
sitting and watching over you.

The stars are peeking out
from the fading light
of the setting sun,
the moon would smile
as you and your love danced…

swaying with the breeze
as you could see the music in the air
floating with the clouds.
Reaching out to touch it,
Weaving between your fingers,
Hands interlaced

this love you cannot teach,
As it snows on the beach,
Angels sing for you two alone,
and your spirits will have flown.
With this moment so perfect,
Should we question the unknown?

Everything possible
in that perfect picture…
Anything possible
in that perfect picture…

A smile on your face
and a smile on hers
it would last forever
never fade from time
nor memory

Don’t we all wish
for that perfect picture?
But never seeming
to have a camera in hand
to freeze time
and enjoy it for what it is.

this love you cannot teach,
As it snows on the beach,
Angels sing for you two alone,
and your spirits will have flown.
With this moment so perfect,
Should we question the unknown?

Because everything is possible
in that perfect picture…
Anything possible
in that perfect picture…
