Guided By Rhythm

Guided By Rhythm

A Poem by Richard Lane

I am guided by rhythm
and I am guided by the beat
I am guided by
your heartbeat

i am guided by the beat
i am guided by the beat
i am guided by the beat


i am quided by
the hum of your
voice even as i'm
dancing long after 
the sun has gone down


i am guided by rhythm
i am guided by rhythm
i am guided by rhythm


spoken word part

i'm not the only one guided 
by emotions as i write.
some who think they 
know better will
tell you it's useless to 
act sentimental
when it comes
to writing a song
for the type of lover you
might wish for
in this world 
where there a few lighthouses
guiding us to the path of love

(bass line solo)

(synth lines and beats)


but if only you would
have said yes to that dance
before that 
walked out that door in all their 
earth grounded yet
beautiful glory
leaving you only to 
remember
those kisses sweeter than wine 

chorus

guided by rhythm.
guided by the sound.

i am quided by
the hum of your
voice even as i'm
dancing long after 
the sun has gone down.

Author's Note

Richard Lane
this posting represents my first attempt at writing lyrics for a potential song
and I have included sections with titles that will allow for the playing music in whatever genre a musician may choose to do. the lyrics will take a few more re-writes but this is what i have so far. feel free to add any comments you might have. :-)
