Annalisa Faithful

< For my friend, Annalise Harrison. Come back soon. >

She's stuck between half-way child,
And half-way adult,
And both halves just need to be loved.
No one seems to understand her-
She is not her sister;
Being the 'Yes-Man' isn't always enough.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
She tries too hard to be loved.

Well, she's far away,
And I missed her today,
So I thought that I would write her a  song.
Someone should sing to her,
But they don't know they words,
So I'll just keep it safe while she's gone. 
Ooh, but she  tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
She tries too hard to be loved.

With all her cards on the table,
She might be able,
To see that she's never alone.
But she hides them well,
And most people can't tell,
That she'd be happy just to get the bones.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
She tries too hard to be loved.

Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
My Friend.
Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
She is my friend,
Always.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.

Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
My Friend.
Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
She is my friend,
Always.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.


Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.


Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.





Merry Me

< Did I say 'Merry Me' too many times? >

Merry Me,
On mountains in the distance,
And lines of people made of cold gold.
Merry Me,
Take me far from everything I know,
But these tear stained memories of old.
Merry Me,
I used to be,
So sure of everything but,
Now all that I see are water falls,
These days; they seem to like to flow,
Down rock walls made of question marks,
And fear.
Merry Me,
I used to be so sure of myself,
But now nothing is clear.
Merry Me,
Wandering on my own,
And wondering if I really know,
What love is.
Merry Me,
Finally realizing that,
When you're here it feels like,
I'm all alone.
Merry Me,
Sitting in the silence and,
Pretending I hear clocks tick,
Like back home.
Merry Me,
Wishing that I didn't have this ring,
Wishing that I hadn't said a thing.
Merry Me,
I don't want to break your heart,
'Cause I feel like at least one of us,
Should have one.
As for me, I've nothing to hang onto,
I really wish I knew just,
What i think of you.
But these days,
Even a mirror tells me nothing,
Of myself.
Merry Me,
So I'll just be Merry Me,
Unless you can come up with,
Someone else.

Had To Be

< This was going to be a refrain, too; let me know if you come up with any other stanzas! I'd really appreciate your  contribution! >

I could've been wrong,
But I had to be right,
We should've been friends,
But we had to fight.
I could say I don't understand,
But that's a lie,
Because I knew all along,
It had to be you,
It had to be you,
Who'd say goodbye.

Two

< I hope you <3 this song. It started out as an idea for a refrain, but then I realized it was the ONLY verse I had in mind for the song, so if wouldn't exactly work to call it a refrain. I thought about adding the lines " 'Cause I'm part of you/ I know I'm part of you" to then end, but changed my mind. Let me know if you think I should add them after all! :) If you're a first timer, I'd love it if you +1'd my blog before you left! >

You got it all wrong,
This isn't  my song;
It's all about you,
And those things that you do.
You don't understand;
You were always my man,
Long before my daddy gave you my hand.
And soon you're gonna see that it's true,
You and I aren't really two.

Touch You Heart

< Hey guys! I know I haven't been on in awhile; I'm really sorry! Here are some more songs- finally. :P I'll also be starting work on the new 'renovations.' :) >

Every time I share a song with you,
I hope that inside hides a dream come true.
Every time someone reads what I have to say,
I hope that my words had strength the make somebody's day.
And every time I feel myself start to fall apart,
I console myself with the thought,
That I touched somebody,
Touched somebody's heart.
REFRAIN:
'Cause I know that everyone get's lost inside,
And I know there aren't enough places to hide.
And I know everyone looks for words that speak to them like art,
So I hope that when you read these songs,
One will touch you,
Touch your heart.

Every time you come back, I hope you find something new,
And when you need more than that, I hope some songs ring true,
If singing and writing is what will reach you,
Singing and writing is what I'll do.
And every time I feel myself start to fall apart,
I console myself with the thought,
That I touched somebody,
Touched somebody's heart.
REFRAIN
