The Song - True Love


Hey everyone:

It's been a minute since I've been around but I wanted to share a little something with you. Since you've been on my blog, you've been around enough to know that I'm a writer. You know that I'm not just a writer. It's who I am. I feel as though I can write anything, if I get the chance to glance at it and/or learn a little bit about it. So with that said, you should know that I write poetry, articles, short stories, essays and more.

But in regard to the more, is what I will start to unveil. I've been a song-writer since the age of fourteen as well as a lyricist but neither were my dreams to pursue, just the writing part of it. I've dabbled with them two on and off for years. I even have a few songs out on contracts in case they are ever used, and as far as being lyricist, I even have a whole album, that I never put out. However I'm still in love with my lyrics and they are still relevant today. Today, I just felt like sharing one of my songs.

The premise for this song: I had been broken-hearted and had a conversation with the stranger about love, and there you have it. *Please note that all things published on this blog and others have been copyrighted for my protection.

True Love

1st Verse
This guy told me he was in love
  and he felt so good inside
I was happy for him, I really was
  but then I started to cry
He asked if there was something wrong
  I said no
He asked if I used to be in love
 I replied a long-time ago

but...

Chorus
It's gone, it's gone, it doesn't exist
No one believes in love
It's gone, it's gone, it doesn't exist
almost like there never was love

2nd Verse
I told the guy that I used to have fun
   being in love
I told him that I thought the guy was the one
  but, heart broken enough
He said don't worry, it will happen to you again
  you will find someone
I said that's ok, I'll keep my friends
 and remember I was in love once

cause...

Chorus
It's gone, it's gone, it doesn't exist
No one believes in love
It's gone, it's gone, it doesn't exist
almost like there never was love

Repeat chorus 2x

True love, true love, true love
ad libs
fade out

*I created and wrote this song based on my own melody.

A Broadway Snippet - Two Bit Floozy

Snippet I created for a "Broadway Play" if ever anyone so need a bit. She's a two bit floozy Always tryin' to do these ... young men She's a female young G otti Just a fast little hottie ... while her hair blows in the wind If you see it , you'll believe it Look at her clevage Owning the world is how she struts And when she walks in the room Guys eyes just zoom On the way she switches her but.. . The little slut She's a man stealer Money hungry dealer She just ain't no good Written by Quanda R. Graves Melody already (c) 1990

Broadway Song Snippet - Mr. Scott

Hey Mr. Scott How you doing? I'd like to know If later on You're not doing anything Wondering if we could go ? Out for a night A night on the town I'll understand if you say no Written by Quanda R. Graves Melody already (c) 1990

The Song: I thought we. . .

The prelude beat just reminded me of someone who gave their all and no reciprocation was given and then I thought about so many young ladies that always give too much too fast and learn the guy is not what he displayed to truly be. Verse 1 In the beginning you were all upon me  and I could see that you weren't for me   I still gave you a chance Later on I  could see things weren't workin g and I could feel that you didn't want me and I was cool with that Still the issue is you left me to believe that you would've talked to me about anything You said you were real, you said you'd speak what you feel and in the end, you didn't do that very thing So I'm confused.. Hook I thought we were better than that I thought we.... were better than that I thought we.. were better than that ...yeah Verse 2 I told you I didn't like to play games You said that you were the same So I thought that we were on the same plane turns out, I didn...
