A while back, while answering the questions in The Thursday Bookworm, I mentioned that I thought it would be rather interesting if I wrote a love song for Matthias Jabs and posted the lyrics here. The idea was greeted with some enthusiasm by one of my friends who said, "Do it! Do it! Write that song!"
I've had lots of ideas floating around in my head since receiving those words of encouragement, but none of them seemed quite right until the other day. The idea just popped into my head and now I can't get it out. I find myself absentmindedly singing the little bit of chorus that I've written all day long. I have a melody for the verses, but haven't quite worked out the lyrics. When I finally do that, I will begin work on the guitar parts. Then I will be ready to sing it to the world! Or Matthias, if only I could have a chance...
I call it Baby Blue Eyes, and here is the bit of lyrics that I've written so far:
What will you do, baby blue eyes What will you do about me loving you Will you tell me more of your sweet lies And give false alibis knowing I can see right through To the truth Is that what you'll do Because I love you
Ain't rhyming couplets grand?! I wish that I could sing this for you, but you're probably lucky that I can't.
To be continued.... P.S. The phrase "sweet lies" refers to the fact that a certain someone does not admit that he is, in fact, married.
