The first song I wrote that really meant something to me was called 'Later Date'.
I was 15 and wrote about a boy in high school. I never really spoke to him but we did a few musicals together and I was drawn to him and happy with the fact that he was at a distance and slightly unattainable.
Here it is:
Verse 1
There was this guy,
His name was Chris,
He meant the world to me,
If only he knew this.
But I guess,
It's just the way it goes,
This is the only way that,
I can let him know.
Verse 2
Those last few days,
flew by so fast,
he left my life and now,
he's in the past.
I should have took the advice, (not the best English I know but it sounded good at the time).
my brother told me I should,
I should have told him how I felt
and made it understood...But now it's too late.
Chorus
And the pain.
Probably doesn't remember my name,
And it hurt me so,
too bad he'll never know.
I'll never see you again,
Unless we meet up in heaven,
or we meet by fate,
at a later date.
And that my friends, is that.
A little insight into my teenage mind and a song that is still very dear to me.
Ask me and I'll sing it for you sometime but for now, I just thought I would share a little piece of me on a Tuesday morning.
