I Need to Feel Some Love
Written for Miley Cyrus.
Can't tell you how nervously some of us watched her progress through that 12-month period of her being 27; the oft' cursed year for so many talented stars.
Verse 1:
I’ve been good, I behave
But I still need to live sometimes
Set me free, for just a while
I’m going out of my mind
Verse 2:
I’m a freak, yes I know
Everyone has their own demons
I got needs, not like yours
And they’re coming to the surface
Pre-Chorus 1:
I don’t need permission
And I’m not gonna stay polite for long
Chorus:
So give me a drink
Give me a drug
Do something to prove your love
Get me high again
I need to feel some love
Verse 3:
One step back Is not a waste
I’ll get back on track I promise
Let me breathe, go away
Everybody needs a reset
Pre-Chorus 2:
Now I’m on a mission
And I’m not gonna let you slow me down
Bridge:
It’s my life, get outta here
You can judge me I don’t care
Least not now ‘cause I got things to do
And parties everywhere
Outro:
I just want one more day
Let me be myself
Get outta my way
Let me be myself
Get outta my way
Let me be myself
Get outta my way
I'm So Proud of You
Inspired by Jennifer Aniston's tribute to her father upon his passing.
Lyrics that could so easily be understood and felt by a son, not just a daughter.
Verse 1:
Hey there angel
My special lady
Been thinking about you a lot lately
Hey there darling
Don’t ever hate me
Been doing the best I can, God help
If it was never enough
Could you ever forgive this silly old man
For the things I didn’t
Chorus:
I’m so proud of you baby
You blow it all away
You’ve been suffering lately
But it’ll be okay
I’m so proud baby
In every single way
May be hard to say but I’ll never get away
From the way you make me feel
Verse 2:
I’d been trying
Near drove me crazy
Despite all this you turned out a lady
You’re amazing
In every way
Be thinking about you on your big
I never said it enough
I will always regret that my little girl
Missed the things I didn’t say
Take Me With You
A song for Dolly & Carl.
Inspired by Dolly Parton's life event of her long-married husband Carl passing in 2025.
Verse 1:
You broke my heart into
So many pieces
Can I
Never ever hold you again?
You shared my life you were
All of my reasons
Now I’m really missing my best friend
Pre-Ch 1:
I took the stage
While you stood by
We shared the lows
I reached the highs
But now you’re gone
My darkest day
In weak moments
I hear myself say
Chorus:
Please take me with you baby
Please take me with you
Verse 2:
The days crawl by but I
Keep myself busy
I am
So much brighter when you’re around
I talk to you daily
Lord knows I’m grateful
I’m still
Praying just as hard as I can
Pre-Ch 2:
You got your wings
I hope you fly
Into my dreams
‘most every night
It feels so wrong
To wonder why
A loving God
Lets good folks die
