<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category: Collaborations]]<br /> <br /> I am working on expanding [[Love, Lenny Halliday]] and I wanted some help with the lyrics. I thought sj, ec, dk (or anyone who felt compelled) might do me the favor of making a few improvements as they saw fit. I'm working with a pretty fixed melody, so syllables and emphasis should probably stay close to the way this scans. the verses are a waltz (emphasis alternates except for a triplet in the second lines: &quot;sleep here for&quot;, &quot;other some&quot;), the chorus follows the melody of the demo linked above. i'll try to post one for the verse melody as well to make this less abstract.<br /> <br /> i tried to use bits from em's lenny halliday story, bits from the anagram poems we wrote, and a few passing references to the secret passerines mythology. i like bits of it. ferris wheel reference. i like the bridge and the last chorus pretty well. the verses draw heavily on the lenny letter and don't have as much resonance as i'd like. i mean, i know this song is going to be an inside joke, but i'd like it to be a touching one, if possible.<br /> <br /> ==lyric ideas==<br /> &lt;pre&gt;<br /> i melted the ice oh i had <br /> been asleep here for weeks now<br /> i tried to resign myself<br /> but lost the letter <br /> <br /> the money that i've sent should pay the fare<br /> dear passerines hold tightly to the rail<br /> the seasons rise and fall before your eyes<br /> the ferris wheel turns slowly through the sky<br /> <br /> people may not like you sweethearts <br /> buy each other some candy<br /> i would tunnel underneath <br /> the sea to bring you back<br /> <br /> i shouldn't let you go but how else is the world to change?<br /> earth spins, see?<br /> earth spins, see?<br /> <br /> i wonder at the places you left prints<br /> your steady hands no less for being small<br /> send Hope my love and Chance the rest she craves<br /> my heart became a bird and flew away<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;<br /> <br /> === structure ===<br /> vrs, chr, vrs, bdg, chr</div>
