I've been writing songs for well over 3 years now and have written about 20 songs. Think I'm currently working on my 21st lol. I have noticed a change in my writing since I've started. My songs seem to look professional (not intending to be too big headed lol), but for those of you interested in songwriting, you may feel the same as you become more experienced. Once I can find all the songs I've written and got them all on the same pc, lol, I will share them with you

no not at all

I write music for my GCSE... That what you mean?

Just songwriting in general, right Steve?

I've always wanted to write my own stuff...the words are far from a problem, it's just the tune that could go with them!

yea, songwriting in general. think i'm working on my 22nd lol would be great to get them recorded. trying to find some lyrics for you all to read. x

The song below I wrote in memory of my best mate Adrian Gierada, who I went to college with. Sadly, Adrian passed away on 24th April 2008, at the age of 18. I worked with him on eveything when we had group activities. He was great to be around, always making jokes. I miss him loads.

Hope you like the song. It's called 'Rest In Eternal Peace'


Verse 1
I can't believe that you have gone
I'm finding it hard to move on
You were the greatest friend to me
You were as great as you could be

I can't believe this happened to you
Wish it was something I could undo
So much I wanted to say to you
But now I don't know what I should do


Bridge
I've been torn apart
Totally shattered inside
It's broken my heart
So much hurt I cannot hide
So much pain from the day that you died


Chorus 1
Forever in my heart
That's where you will stay
Forever in my heart
Till my dying day
Forever in my thoughts
Never forget you
Forever in my thoughts
But what can I do
When I'm really missing you


Verse 2
I can't believe what you have left behind
Things keep going around in my mind
I think back to the good times we had
It's clear to see you were one fun lad

I can't believe what a shock it's been
Wish it was something I could've seen
I see your face in the clouds at night
You're smiling at me through the moonlight


Bridge
I've been torn apart
Totally shattered inside
It's broken my heart
So much hurt I cannot hide
So much pain from the day that you died


Chorus 2
Forever you're with me
You are all around
Forever you're with me
On this earthly ground
Forever in my thoughts
Never forget you
Forever in my thoughts
But what can I do
When I'm really missing you


Verse 3
I feel that you helped me write this song
You are all around to keep me strong
One day I will join you up in the sky
Cos I'm refusing to say goodbye


Bridge
I've been torn apart
Totally shattered inside
It's broken my heart
So much hurt I cannot hide
So much pain from the day that you died


Chorus 3
Forever in my heart
That's where you will stay
Forever in my heart
Till my dying day
Forever you're with me
You are all around
Forever you're with me
On this earthly ground
Forever in my thoughts
Never forget you
Forever in my thoughts
But what can I do
When I'm really missing you
