a letter, a star, a life, a death

i'm not the biggest fan of this... mainly cause i feel that i cant write happy lyrics... anyway enjoy and comment away!!!

a letter, a star, a life, a death

these letters that i read glisten like a galaxy of stars
even when the clouds roll in, they still shine
they are excerpts of a life with you in my arms
and for that i stop, and take a breath
breathe in, breathe out, that i must remember

these letters that i read lost in a shipwreck
even when they sink to the bottom, i will still take love from them
an army of dolphins in a world of sharks
and for that i stop, and take a breath
breathe in, breathe out, that i must remember

darkness sets in with the night i feel lost
but these letters provide the light and warmth i need
and i live to survive another day, life... death
and for that i stop, and take a breath
breathe in, breathe out, that i must remember

as i watch your fianl resting place being lowered into the ground i start to smile
you have always been my shining light
my saving grace
my one true love...
i place these letters on the satin sheets that will accompany you forever
and i know that all i have to do is look at stars and know that you are happy where ever you are...
cause you are always with me
cause you are always by my side

I like the fact that someone wrote a happy song, and it's actually pretty good. The only thing I DON'T like is the title. Having death as the last word puts more emphasis on death than the song actually holds. Though it's true that the lover died, the song is about his/her love and not his/her being dead.

Don't worry about writing happy songs, apparently you can do it well. And written happiness always sounds kinda cheesy, but that's cause we're sarcasm-addled teenagers...or i think we all are...

Keep at it, thank god for happiness.

yeah, thanx peoples... as for the name, yeah, that was just a quick thing as i never gave it a name before so it's morethere for show at the mo' but thanx to y'all anyway... and yes, we all are sarcasm-riddled teens who are jaded and bitter by now

i just though that i should update this post with the final version of the song, there aren't that many changes but i thought it nesessary anyway
