Her Eyes

Hi everyone this is my latest little song please all feed back welcome


Her Eyes

CHORUS
When I look into her eyes
Does this world spin by
When I look into her eys
I don't hear no lies

V1
This feeling I get
I'll never forget
My heart starts racing
When we are embracing

V2
She drives me wild
She is my love child
I love this lady
Named miss McGrady


BRIDGE
Like looking through the eyes of a baby
Seeing through the eyes of child
When I look into the eyes of my lady
Those eyes that drive me wild

CHORUS
When I look into her eyes
Does this world spin by
When I look into her eys
I don't hear no lies

OUTRO
I love her , I really love her
I never want to hurt her
But sometimes love hurts

Very nice. I like it.

I dont particularly like the connotation to a love child. Seeing that it is actually the lady you are in love with. Some of the lines are a bit short according to my, but I must add that this is especially nice in certain types of music. it also allows you a lot of room to play with the melody and rhythm...

Anyway, that was just my little oppinion.

I was thinking the same thing, I have difficulty putting music to words, but one I have a melody the rest is easy... sometimes...

Hello Hilch

Once again you write a beautiful love song this time about Miss Mc Grady , may I be so bold to offer a little alteration to Verse 2 ?

She drives me wild
I feel like a child
I love this lady
Named miss McGrady


Love child just did not work for me ( sorry )
