Writing Lyrics

I had never properly written any lyrics before so I did not really know the best way to approach it. So I decided to write down all of my lyrical ideas and random thoughts until something seemed interesting. Then I began to build up a basic song structure and used the classic method of rhyming to write some sensible lyrics. I then tried creating a melody in my head. To help me remember this melody I used punctuation as if I was writing a poem. I then made a few last adjustments and gave it a title. I have put the song below for you to read.

FALLING

Verse

I guess it’s happening again, It turned my life around.

I thought that I was lost but now I have been found.

I’m not sure how to think, I don’t know how to feel?

It’s crazy but this love that we have is real.

Chorus

I didn’t know it would be you.

Who. would pick me off the ground.

I didn’t know. Oh.

You’re what I’m looking for…

Oh. No. Its happening again, baby I’m falling…

Falling hard for you.

Verse 

Talking on the phone, at night when stars are out.

Wishing you’ll be mine, forever with no doubts.

Feeling like I’m safe, away from any harm.

My hearts beating fast, the chaos in the calm.

Chorus

I didn’t know it would be you.

Who. would pick me off the ground.

I didn’t know. Oh.

You’re what I’m looking for…

Oh. No. Its happening again, baby I’m falling…

Falling hard for you.

Bridge

Who would I be without you.

I fell to my knees but I found you.

Now tell me what I gotta do.

Oh baby what am I gonna do.

I can’t be me without you.

I need to be around you.

Are you falling for me too?

I know you’re falling for me.

Chorus

I didn’t know it would be you.

Who. would pick me off the ground.

I didn’t know. Oh.

You’re what I’m looking for…

Oh. No. Its happening again, baby I’m falling…

Falling hard for you.
