Staring Out The Window (UPDATE)

[audiorayne]

Hi All,Happy new year to everyone! Hope you had a good holiday with your family and friends. [Note: I edited this post to get to the point quicker, but didn't feel like it sounded like me (I'm wordy I suppose) so I put my ramblings back in... ]I’ve been delinquent from the boards for a few weeks so I must apologize – been working my brains out on some new stuff, went on vacation in Canada (brought most of my Pro Tools rig with me of course), didn’t have internet, then got snowed in and couldn’t return to Houston till yesterday. Needless to say I’m chomping at the bit to see what I missed around here - from the little bit I’ve seen I’ve got some catching up to do!Back at the end of November I got some great advice from forum members about correspondence I was having with an A&R rep for a film & TV music library (http://taxi.proboards27.com/index.cgi?b ... 1196182341). Long story short – they wondered if I had any extra material and I told them that I did and would send them some new and updated stuff mid-January. Of course, I’d like for the forum folks to hear it (and tear it apart ) first, so here’s a new tune I’ve been working on called “Staring Out The Window.” If anyone has any comments on structure, lyrics, production, etc. please let me know! Thanks so much,-AR“Staring Out The Window”http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... Lyrics:Why did I have to break?Why do you have to stay so mad?Why do you have to go?And leave me staring out the windowSomebody tell meWhat is faith?What is trust?What is life but falling dust?Don’t let ‘em take it all awayWhat is joy?What is doubt?We were what I smiled aboutYou tore my world when you walked outI wish you would have loved me the sameBut I’m staring out the window againI’m searching for someone who loves me for meAnd not for what I can changeSo I’m staring out the windowI wonder if I should ask herHoney could you come back in?When I tell you everything’s going to be all rightBe all right you better believe meSo honey tell meWhat is fear?What is love?Why can’t we just rise above?Just take my hand and save my soul I wish you would have loved me the sameBut I’m staring out the window againI’m searching for someone who loves me for meAnd not for what I can changeI wish I knew you’d love me tomorrowBut the morning’s just a guessing gameGive her what she needsIt’s all that any man can doJust pray that nothing takes her awayWhat is faith for you?You had my trustBut now I’m staring asYou walk away from usWhat is fear for me?You took my loveI’m sorry that I brokeIt’s what I feared the mostWhy do you have to go?I wish you would have loved me the sameBut I’m staring out the window againI’m searching for someone who loves me for meAnd not for what I can changeSo I’m staring out the windowI wish I knew you’d love me tomorrowBut the morning’s just a guessing gameGive her what she needsIt’s all that any man can doJust pray that nothing takes her awaySo I’m staring out the windowWhat in the world are we waiting for?What in the world are we waiting for?What in the world are you waiting for?I wish you would have loved me the sameBut I’m staring out the window againI’m searching for someone who loves me for meAnd not for what I can changeSo I’m staring out the window
