Waitin' on Another Day

Todays a day I'll sing the blues
Waitin' on some better news
Todays a day I'll sing the blues
Waitin' on some better news


Well I am
Waitin' on another day
Flyin' to another place
Hopin' for a kinder face

Yeah I'm waitin' on another day
Flyin' to another place
Hopin' for a kinder face


I had a funny dream last night
'bout a wave that brought the tide
I had a funny dream last night
'bout a wave that brought the tide


So I am
Waitin' on another day
Flyin' to another place
Hopin' for a kinder face

Oh sure I'm
Waitin' on another day
Flyin' to another place
Hopin' for a kinder face


Oh todays a day I'll write the blues
Tomorrow bring some better news

In a list

    Oooh nice, get some muddy bluegrass guitar and you have yourself a hit...

  • I can imagine a bluesy guitar and a rich voice singing this...I enjoyed it, as lyrics, this works very nicely. Well done.

    I don't judge poetry and lyrics by the same criterea. I've written both and they are two different animals. As far as poetry goes this is repetitious and simplistic but then, I don't think that you intended this to be read as poetry.

    As far as lyrics are concerned it is still repititious and simplistic but that isn't always a bad thing for a lyric. It, in fact, can be a good thing if that is the effect you are going for and it compliments the music of the song. Since this is a poetry contest and since I don't have the benefit of the music that this lyric is supposed to compliment I'll just say thanks for the entry and I'd love to hear the lyrics set to music whenevery you get that part done.

    Well, I like the repitition in this hopeful rhyme. It could use a little variance in the sentences. Good job. Shancy.

  • cool!!! This sound like a song a famous band would play. You're good!

    Wherever you go, Take the weather with you.


    Too much repetition, needs more lyric development, expand your theme. Ask the poem: what, why, how. Give it a go.
