The Key By Paul Wilson “An attempt at Song Writing” 3500 Post I’ve changed my address phone numbers no longer the same Just like yesterday you’re history no more playing your game Word on the street is you set me free I wonder… how could that be I was a prisoner of my own heart no one had the key but me Hearts will be broken that’s how it’s gotta be I gave you most all I had but saved the best of me Tomorrow I’ll start a new life i’m foot loose and fancy free Today you’re just a memory that’s all you’ll ever be No lights are on in apartment number four You came by last night knocking on the door Operator says sorry this number has been changed Starting today my life is being re-arranged Tomorrow I’ll start a new life i’m foot loose and fancy free Today you’re just a memory that’s all you’ll ever be Hearts will be broken that’s how it’s gotta be I gave you most all I had but saved the best of me The key to my heart you never had You’ll never know these tears I still cry… hurt so bad ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

Paul, I like it & tried to 'sing' it in my head as a song rather than reading as a poem & I have to say I'd rate it 18 with a bullet ! |

Yep, I'm so relating to your poem, Paul. Ironically we've held the key all along! This is good and right on the mark for me. |

John...Take a crack at it, I'm sort of into country music, but I suppose any type of music would work, it's all in the listeners mind. Big fan of led Zep also...Paul Maybe we can make a hit out of it LOL ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

LindsayP...Glad you liked this. SAD seems like thats all I know, but in a strange way, because what I write about is mostly always fictional. I really appreciate you taking time to read and reply...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Paul, I'm partial to a bit of Zep myself although my major influences which will no doubt come through are Eagels, Crosby,Stills & Nash, Doobies, Jackson Browne, Dan Fogelberg, JJ Cale etc, etc  will get to work on it in the next day or so, I'll keep you posted........Cheers John |
