Speaking softly with fingers crossed,
Your eyes glued to the floor,
This lie is one I've heard all too much,
Now decide: My loss or yours?

CHORUS
Long winters made even longer
By your longing stare,
Yet still my eyes, they long to see
Behind the mask you wear.

Hushed phrases carefully placed,
Not meaning to impose
My starving ears strain for your words
Despite your growing nose.

Long winters made even longer
By your longing stare
Yet still my eyes, they long to see
Behind the mask you wear

If we could go outside,
Go running in the rain,
Would you smile and laugh then,
While the water washed you clean?

CHORUS


That's it. My band plays this song, and I'm tired of calling it "untitled", but all the obvious title possibilities like "Mask You Wear" or "Long Winters" seem too.... well, obvious. Give me some suggestions on either titles or revisions for this song. I would appreciate it. Thanks!

I love it!, Especially the last bit about the rain. How about calling it "running in the rain". It has a nice ring to it, even though it is a line used in the song I don't think it's too obvious either.:cool: Good stuff.

I think that Heads or Tails suggestion was great, and that is what I would title it if it were my song.

hey no problem. if you like that, and you have trouble with other titles or lyrics, send them to me. I've got a million ideas. I'm a lyricist and in a band out of Virginia Beach, VA. I'd love to read more of your stuff.
