Hey!  This one I actually wrote almost a year ago with my friend, Emily.  It's a song...  I know it's quite long, so if you have any tips on making it shorter, please let me know!  Anyhow, let me know what you think of it!

ONE DIVINE

(Emily)
Life's precious memories
come in so many ways
Mine came in sandals
On that warm summer day

I saw him for the first time
In what seemed like years
But somehow I felt like
I had nothing to fear

He took my hand
And along came my heart
From that moment on
Our hearts would not part

Growing up together
This is the one devine
From that moment on
Our hearts were never apart

Our hearts are united
Our hearts are the same
Our love is divine
Our love is not a game

(Cody)
Life's precious memories
Come in so many ways
Mine came with candles
On our wedding day

I saw her in a new light
And I had nothing but tears
But somehow it felt like
I had nothing to fear

This is our life together
We have so much to do
we're so great for eachother
Who could've knew?

She had taken my hand
And along came my heart
From then 'till forever
Our hearts will never part

Growing up together
This is the one divine
This love is all yours
This love is all mine

(Both)
Our hearts are separate
Our hearts are the same
Our love is divine
Our love's not a game

(Emily)
Life's precious memories
Come in so many ways
We buried his body
On this cold winter day

I am so lonely
Don't know what to do
I need somebody
But I don't know who

(Both)
Growing up together
This was the one divine
The love was all yours
The love was all mine

Our hearts are separate
Our hearts are the same
Our love was divine
Our love wasn't a game

(Emily)
Life's precious memories
Come in so many ways
I lay flowers down for you
On this warm day in May

I think of how much
I still do love you
And I know in my heart
That you love me too

(Both)
We grew up together
Our love was always divine
The love was always yours
The love was always mine

Our hearts will be united
Our hearts have always been the same
Our love has been divine
We'll be together in Heaven's name

I really thought this rocked Cody. Also I'd like to point out that as a song writer you should know that you can write all sorts of songs. Some of the best songs have lyrics, chorus, lyrics, chorusx3, lyrics from the first one, chorusx8. = BOOM hit song!
I mean it can be so simple.

To shorten out this song like you asked: You could take certain parts of emily's and certain from you and mesh them TOGETHER and rid of the unnecessary stuff.
Remember that a song must have something catchy......something that stays in yer head. A lot of the time it's the chorus that is repeated 3 or 4 times throughout a song. So a chorus does a take a LOT of time from a song. Most songs are around 3mins long or so. Your song that I just read would be like 6 minutes if it's slow.....2:14 if it's a fast punk song haha.
It's all about your style, and the music to accompany it. A song isn't a song without music.....if it's just words then all you got are lost lyrics waiting to be used.

Do yer thing Cody..oh and dude, you know I love you right?  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Somewhere out there a cow is laughing at you

after much consideration and debate, I have come to a conclusion. don't shorten it. it's fine the way it is. unless of course you see something that you don't feel needs to be said. or if you see something that can be changed to better fit...yeah. well, it's still great though. I do'nt mind the length   (oh, and are you happy? I finally replied!!!  

I LOVE ZU, hey Albie, Cody, Allan, Carly, Cherish, Lizzy, Kris, *HUGS JAVI*, Tamma, Acire, and Branden.
