Day 91 - "Go on"
>> Wednesday, December 9, 2009
Alrighty - so I finally finished it! "Go on" - the song I wrote and recorded for the Canadian Radio Star National Songwriting Competition (wow - that's a long name) is done and submitted! We Fed-exed it to the radio station today, so cross your fingers for me that something comes of it!
I'm pretty proud of it - I know it's not perfect, but I really put my heart into this one and hope that someone out there finds some inspiration in it. I've attached the mp3 (and the lyrics) below, so have a listen if you have time and let me know what you think!
Go on
Fallen dreams are lyin’ on the floor
I know that you’ve seen this once from me before
but I’m tellin’ you now this time’s different
I feel it inside, I’ve got peace with it
Time passes by when you’re lookin’ down
I know ‘cause I felt it flip my world around
I stood by and watched as it passed me by
my eyes would not see, could not realize
I was drifting out of reach
‘till I found my voice to speak
I was running out of time
‘till I remembered to breathe
The sun will always shine above the clouds
Use the rain to wash away your doubts
Don’t let unknown fears get in the way
Use the time given to you today
Go on, Go on
Second chances to live the life you dreamed
They never expire although it sometimes seems
‘cause once you take one step down the right path
the rest will fall in line, you’ll have your truth back
I was drifting out of reach
‘till I found my voice to speak
I was running out of time
‘till I remembered to breathe
The sun will always shine above the clouds
Use the rain to wash away your doubts
Don’t let unknown fears get in the way
Use the time given to you today
Go on, Go on
Where I’ve been is where I had to be
Where I stand is where I’m supposed to be
What I’ve done is what I had to live
Who I am is what I have to give
The sun will always shine above the clouds
Use the rain to wash away your doubts
Don’t let unknown fears get in your way
Use the time given to you today
You’ve got strength you didn’t know you had
Keep runnin’ forward, never look back
Go on, Go on, Go on
Go on, Go on, Go on, Go on

Beautiful Suzanne. Hearing your singing voice always gives me shivers (in a good way). It's an amazing song you composed and written. The lyrics especially moved me. Even choked me up a bit. I really felt your heart in it and I have to say I completely understand what you are trying to say with this song. Congratulations! I will be praying for your success. And you can rest in knowing that if it is Gods will, it will become reality.
