I love the way you make your moves struttin tall in leather boots. made up eyes and sailin smooth. But your nights are lonely girl beyond the look's another world and sets my mind to whirl. Chorus: You keep dreamin girl of better days but you're lost in the future's haze you're getting older in your masquerade how much time is left to guess? I feel you scared when I'm near you you entertain a look of gloom you look so helpless in that room. Something strange this life you lead you're in the land of make believe with fairy tales and crazy dreams. I love the way you state your game painted nails and long gold chains your curled lips your fashion frame. I'd love to see your long black hair across my pillow everywhere imagine how I'd love you there. Rep Chorus: You keep dreamin girl of better days but you're lost in the future's haze you're getting older in your masquerade how much time is left to guess? true love never looks after it's own interests |

Telling it like it is for many in the "game," Eric, and telling it in a way only you can do. I wish someone would pick up your songs and do something with them. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I like the lyrics, I can see the story. I was just wondering, what kind of music did you put to the words, Blues, country? Both would be great. Ms. E |

"Something strange this life you lead you're in the land of make believe with fairy tales and crazy dreams." This part I claim as my own because it feels like me...Your songs are very beautiful to be heard...time to me does not exist for I am in a time of my own...Love it...you weave such magic with your words...*BIG HUGS* *may our dreams ever be magical* |

Thanks Jerry for the kind words and support and oh, do I wish some major artist would pick some of these up....he he but it's all enjoyable anyway. Eric Ms. E Depending on the type of lyrics and the type of melody it can be any style of music. This particular one is like an old Rolling Stones type of Rhythum & Blues back beat. However, I have written blues, country, folk, champagne style etc etc. Thanks for your visit and the reply. Eric Karen Thank you so much for your visits and kind positive replies. Many many of us have been lost in a world of dreams and so called fairy tales but we have to face the reality eventually. Nice out there in dream land all the same, seems to be a lot less troubles... Big HUGS! right back at ya and thanks again for the kind words on my lyrics. Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |

seems like a tale with a moral, to live life in the present. Fine writing! "The secret behind survival of mankind is kindness and love within our hearts" |
