Hello Everyone!!I have missed all of you dearly, and I sit here in the car just jammin away I thought id share with ya'll what ive been doing for the past hour or so. I only share this with ya'll because 1) I know you will only make fun of me a little bit 2) you know these songs 3)you know how much i love to write things just about anything for that matter
Before you can begin you need to know that I once again have messed up the spelling and connotation of words and that is how this began. All of us are familiar with Moulin Rouge, in that movie there is a song called "Elephant Love Medley". Here they composed a song, by using about 12 different parts of different songs. I thought it was so cool, and well I've always wanted to do that. So in high school I did, and then again I did it today, however until today I thought that word was "Melody". Melody and Medley definitely mean two different things.
As I sat here in the car and listened to my usual playlist of songs, one of which is the Miley Cyrus song When I look at you (thank you MM for that one) she says,
“Everybody needs inspiration, everybody needs a song. A beautiful melody when the nights so long cause there is no guarantee that this life is easy. When the world is falling apart. When there is no light to break in the dark. That’s when I look at you.”
Ok so first of all I agreed with her, but I also at the time was thinking melody and medley meant the same thing, hope you are still following. So I decided I was going to write a "Melody" haha but really its a medley anyways its to God. Crazy I know, but I always have these bits and pieces of songs that I love and wish I could put together so I did and well I hope
Warren Barfield, Addison Road, and Meredith Andrews won't mind, because I used those lyrics----keep in mind too that this song clearly has no tune, and well you just kind of read it like a poem or short story or something I don't know.
here goes nothing--Caroline's Medley inspired by Miley's need for a beautiful melody
(things in quotes are still from songs, but I imagine thats what God would say back :-)
I searched for love
When the night came and closed in
I was alone but you found me
And now I’ll never ever be the same
“My Love I’ve never left your side.”
In this beautiful broken world
We laugh and then we cry
There is no reason, you know why, there is no rhyme
All I have is you
Chorus
You are always by my side
Your love is the one thing I can’t run out of
Your love is a shelter in a raging storm
Your love is a peace in the middle of a war
Love is not a fight but
Your love is worth fighting for
Chorus
You are always by my side
Your love is one thing I can’t run out of
If everything comes down to love
Then just what am I afraid of?
Everything rides on Hope
Everything rides on Faith
Livin in this beautiful broken world with you
I have come to understand the worth of a friend
Dear friend you have spoken the truth over my life
and they will never know what it means to me
Chorus
You are always by my side
Your love is the one thing I can’t run out of
Let your heart be my eyes
My vain ambitions die
Because I’m living for something more
You’ve become my hearts desire
And I will sing your praises
Because your love has set me free
Chorus
You are always by my side
Your love is the one thing I can’t run out of
“My love I’ve never left your side.
You are not alone."
So there it is haha not going to top any charts seeing as how I used other people's lyrics, but I like their's better than my own anyways, but it was really fun, and I thought you all would get a kick out of my mistake and at the randomness of writing a "medley"
Love you all and can't wait to see you soon!!!
Caroline
