I began a re-write of a song I recorded back in the day....way, way, back in the old time of about 2007-08. No, I'm not trying to live in the past, haha, it is more so something I randomly thought about and I began writing as the idea flowed. Once I was finished the re-write (well almost done...need your opinion below), the song had changed keys, changed some melodies, and the lyrics are almost completely different. I personally enjoy the new version and I think you will too. If you remember the song "Alive" from the "Matter of Time" cd, you may be surprised (and I don't know, maybe you won't be) at how much it has changed; it could almost be an entirely seperate song in itself. Any who, it is about 92.932111% finished. The only part I'm wrestling with is the lyrics in the 2nd verse, line 2, in bold below. This is where you're help is needed to finish this rewrite! so I can record it and give you the free mp3 download. First choice for you to make...do you like the start of verse 2, line 2 as option 1) Here before you I stand or option 2) I'm uncovered, laid bare. Secondly, do you like the end of the line as.... 1) offering every piece of me, 2) offering everything I am, 3) everything I have Please send your responses/opinions in below. Once we make a final decision I'll get it recorded in the next week...2 at the latest and like I said, send it out to you. Thanks for your amazing Alive (Only You That I'm After)
Verse 1: You’re the First and the Last You were, are, forever How could I not abide in the One who gives me life Chorus: In Your eyes, I'm alive I'm all Yours now and forever I surrender my heart It’s only You that I’m after Verse 2: Theres nothing, that could part, the bonding of our hearts Here before you I stand, offering every......(piece of me) or (thing I am) or (thing I have) or (line below) I'm uncovered, laid bare, offering every piece of me Bridge: It’s only in Your eyes, that I found true life Oh, You’re all that I’m after Its always been You, and it will always remain You Oh, You’re all that I’m after
