Topic: For One Hour

This is my first attempt at trying to write a complete song.  Now just to find the correct chords. 


I get lost in your eyes
I lose all self control and I realize
I look at you and I just melt
And I know that I could make you feel
The feeling that my heart's already felt

    For one hour....I long to hold you
    For one hour....I long to touch you
    For one hour.... I long to kiss you
    What I could do to you....For one hour

Our lives are so complicated
No one knows the reason
Why someone needs the love
from another person

    For one hour....I long to hold you
    For one hour....I long to touch you
    For one hour.... I long to kiss you
    What I could do to you....For one hour

To have the time to spend with you
if you would only look my way
To get you away from all your fears
To talk to you, all the things that I would say

    For one hour....I long to hold you close
    For one hour....I long to touch your body
    For one hour.... I long to kiss your lips
   
When I'm with you....for one hour

Re: For One Hour

Thank you doll.  I actually did a sample recording once prior to reading about Audacity and doing it on separate tracks.  I did it all in one take.  Kind of messy but it was my first time.  Have to learn to walk first.  Trying to work on it again.  Maybe one day it will be good enough to post

Re: For One Hour

hi resprod

nice one for a first attempt, can i suggest though, the chorus says;

"what i could do to you for one hour"

sounds a little blokey [chauvinistic]

might i suggest;

"what we could do in one hour"

phill

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: For One Hour

Thanks Phil.  It started out as a kind of forbidden love song.  Like the person doesn't know his feelings.  But I agree it does sound a little goofy. It is about one beat shorter that what I had but I will try it and see if I can get it to fit.
