“Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought.” -E. Y. Harburg

Tonight, Rosie, Skunk, and I were talking about music. After realizing that we were all musically inclined, each in a unique way, we decided to try and put together a band, using the internet as our meeting point. Its going to be an interesting experiment, and i'm very excited to see how it all pulls together.

I wrote a song tonight, and passed it along to skunk. He said it needs a bit of editing, but overall is good. I'm really proud of it, and can't wait to hear our finished product.

Heres the first draft of our song:

Dreaming of you
on a warm summers eve
i was thinking of you
and the places we have been
i was thinking how wonderful
it'd be to chase our dreams
float across the moonbeams
into the dark night

CHORUS:
Theres just so many things
we need to see
so many places
left to go
a ton of broken hearts to mend
and a thousand dreams to follow
[end chorus]

take my hand
let me lead you away
somewhere into the blue
sky above our weary heads
we've thought of so many
days in which we could be free
just a stretch of empty road
chasing our dreams

CHORUS

A lonely path weve drifted down
so we'll turn around
(turn around)
and choose another way
each day a choice
another thought upon us
drifting away as i lay
in the grass dreaming up a little dream
of running away and learning to fly

CHORUS

Heart,
Romy
