1st Verse
I wish that you could hear
this music in my heart,
that plays when you are near;
that stops when we’re apart.
I wish that you could feel
how deeply I love you;
You’d know my love was real.
You’d see my love was true.
Chorus:
I still love you, forever.
You need never be in doubt.
I fell in love with you and
I am never falling out.
Whenever we’re together,
it’s like heavens meant to be
and I still love you, forever
just as long as you love me.
2nd Verse
I wish that I could show
the dances my heart does;
when it begins to glow
with love’s electric buzz.
I wish that I could prove
that I’m a faithful man
and no one else could move
my heart the way you can.
Chorus:
I still love you, forever.
You need never be in doubt.
I fell in love with you and
I am never falling out.
Whenever we’re together,
it’s like heavens meant to be
and I still love you, forever
just as long as you love me.

Sweet lyrics, John, lots of good rhyming patterns and I particularly liked:
I wish that I could show
the dances my heart does
when it begins to glow
with love’s electric buzz
Do you write melodies on the piano or guitar to go with your lyrics, or are you a Bernie Taupin looking for his Elton?
Much enjoyed.

Thanks, Sue.
No. I only know a few chords on the guitar and I can't read musical notation, sadly.
I did submit some of my lyrics to a musician once but he wanted me to sign a dodgy contract giving him all the rights to everything I wrote. I took it to a solicitor and he advised me against signing it.
I'd be very happy to work with a musician though. Even for things like hymns or children's songs.
