Track One: Not Today

First song I ever wrote. I was eighteen and I was in San Fran

I stare at the moon longingly

How is it that something like that

Can be so nostalgic? I want to cry

Because you’re the one I think of

Happy or sad, you’re on my mind

Why can’t I forget these feelings for you?

 

I didn’t want to think of you today

Even though it hurts there you are

Haunting my mind just like a ghost

I had hoped that you had gone forever

Wasn’t supposed to remember

Not today, no, it’s just so cruel

 

I thought I had cried all my tears

I thought you were out of my mind

It’s driving me to insanity now

You’ve gone, but you’re stuck in my heart

Can’t see your face, but I feel you

I’m stuck on you, today and tomorrow

 

I didn’t want to think of you today

Even though it hurts there you are

Haunting my mind just like a ghost

I had hoped that you had gone forever

Wasn’t supposed to remember

Not today, no, it’s just so cruel

 

You’re such a heartache my head aches

Why is it so hard to move on?

I’m falling for you all alone

 

I didn’t want to think of you today

Even though it hurts there you are

Haunting my mind just like a ghost

I had hoped that you had gone forever

Wasn’t supposed to remember

Not today, no, it’s just so cruel

Reviews

To be honest, I think having the chorus 3 times causes it to get boring at the end. The third chorus shouldn't be there. Trying to hear it through in my head, it sounds much better ending on "I’m falling for you all alone". Overall, I enjoyed it, and will be sure to read more of your pieces :) I can connect with this, even though I doubt the lyrics relate to me in the same sense that you wrote them in. Although through and through, I think that you could have been a bit deeper with some of lines, but that's just one opinion.
