The Vibe

(Fallen For) The Vibe
by Liam the lemming 25/6/94

I was really pleased when I
wrote this module - so
pleased that I wrote a
lyric for it...
---------------------------
I'm sitting here trying to
compose a song that I can
sing to you
But the notes aren't coming
through
I'm trying hard to write
some words that I can put
into a song
But it always comes out
wrong
I try to concentrate and
figure out a way to hit
the drums
But the rhythm never comes
I rack my brains to make a
rhyme that won't sound
corny or inane
And it's driving me insane

It's only music, after all
So why does it have such a
strong effect on me?
It lifts me high and lets
me fall
And yet it finds so much
respect from me
The love I feel for you is
strong
But the only time my
feelings come alive
Is when I'm writing you a
song
Could it really be I've
fallen for the vibe?

My music lifts me up and
carries me across a land
of dreams
Or at least that's how it
seems
It works its miracle of
happiness upon my
furrowed brow
Maybe someday I'll know how
There's something mystical
about the way it lifts my
spirits high
Until I feel like I could
fly
The strange effect it has
on me, the way it takes
away my pain
It's just not possible to
explain

It's only music, after
all...

I sit around not doing
much, just listening to a
new CD
And it makes me feel so
free
But then I think of you and
suddenly my freedom
starts to wilt
As I am overcome with guilt
I try to think of ways to
show you that I'm still
in love with you
Then an idea comes through
I find a writing pad, a
fountain pen, and then
before too long
I start writing you a song.
---------------------------
It's all about someone who
falls in love with the
music he writes. Yep, it's
autobiographical. Sad, I
know, but people have
fallen for stranger things
than music before.

The worst thing is, just as
I perfected this song, my
voice started breaking up
(twice in one lifetime?!!)
and my range went bye-byes.
Someday soon though, I'll
sing this song again.......
