Sunshine!

Sunshine's a fun topic isn't it? Well I was looking through my lyric book and found a song I wrote a while ago. Like 3 weeks ago. It's a duet that needs a ton of tweaking but I'm ok with it.

It's for a guy and a girl but who sings which part doesn't really matter.

Part 1

Part 2

Both

Staring past the window pane

Watching raindrops drip away

You've gotten so sick and tired

Trampled and battered

Broken down, ready to quit

(Ok, so I don't quite know which part should sing this... or how it fits....)

Know the shadows show

There's sunshine after the rain

through the storm

Light is breaking through the clouds

Sunshine's gonna come

Sunshine's gonna come

Dead of night, all alone

Cold won't stay away

There's a fire

Burning from my soul

My heart is beating

Louder than you're screaming

There's a light at the tunnel's end

It's late and sleep won't come tonight

No not tonight

There's a nightingale singing

Later you'll hear a morning lark

But you're no where to be found

Maybe I'm just not looking hard enough

(interlude or chorus or something goes here)

Now you see there's silver lining

Now I see that there can be

Beauty from the ashes

Don't take the blame

For what has come to pass

You know without you

I would not have last

Life has hurt you so

Painful memories attached to risen scars

Know those shadows only show

The sunshine's gonna come

Sunshine's gonna come (Through the pain and scars)

Shadows only show that sunshine's gonna come

Yeah it's not finished yet, but there's the basis. I feel it's a bit repetitive and doesn't have enough shared parts or really a set chorus. A little bit of tweaking should fix it. Sometimes it's so hard to edit something I've written just because I wrote it that way and might love it. No matter how much I love how I wrote something, sometimes it just needs to change. Change can be something hard to accept, especially if it's something I've poured my heart and soul out on.
