Help writing lyrics

~Sandy-aka-SandBox Nov 28, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Hi. My dream is to b country singer. I'm not good at writing lyrics all on my own. I really wanna write a romantic song about my girlfriend. My mind is smoking like hell! I was hoping anyone here can help me with writing a song for her. You can give me a head start, just give me ideas I can elaborate, etc, whatever you can do to help, I'd appreciate it.

[name] is pretty; I sing empty things about her
because I didn't want to write this for myself.
If I keep this up I'm going to lose her
and spend most of my life up on the shelf.

[name]'s a generic hottie for all that I care
this is really about how I want to be a star
and the big cowboy hat that I'll get to wear
although if I can't write songs I won't go far.

(Sorry, I was having a bitchy moment)

although the parenthetical is a letdown.

Thank u so much for giving it a shot. I appreciate ur effort, but i don't use ppls names in my song. That sound's old fashioned. Also, I don't use 2012 words like "hottie". This is a serious song. I'm glad u tried tho. That would sound good in a rap song

I think you may have an irony deficit.

Ideas are the easy part, and as you want this to be about YOUR girlfriend you're much better placed to come up with them than we are.

The hard part is expressing those ideas in lyrical form. Exactly how much of this are you expecting will be done by other people?

pretty much just verses. chorus and bridge i can give it my best shot.

how can we possibly do this? we're not you and we don't know her -- i'm afraid if you want to do this, you're on your own. this shouldn't be something that is difficult if it's from the heart.

Of course u dnt know us, but I do suck at writing lyrics and it is possible to get help from here.

`raspil Nov 28, 2012 Writer
