Default Original song- Tulip

Hey havent been in the Igloo for ages (my college was blocking lots of websites but now its all gone back to normal! ) But anyways, I wrote a wee song last night and i put it on youtube... and saying how I value everyones opinions on the igloo so much I thought I'd share it with ya's!



the sound quality isnt the greatest so ya mightnt be able to make out all the lyrics so here they are!

Lyrics

The moon is a rock on the biggest hilltop
That the world has ever seen
And all i want to do is climb to the moon
'Cause it all looks so serene

I'm not sure if there's things worth crying for
All the questions that I ask just leave me left with more

Tulips wouldn't grown on the moon you know
'Cause there's no air or waer
And even if they could I don't think they would
'Cause its just not worth the bother

I'm not really sure if we even went somewhere
And even if we did it was just for a breath of air

You were wearing boots and I was wearin shoes
But that doesn't really matter
We were on the street kicking balls with our feet
But it was you i was really after

And I dont know if it was ever on the cards
You were just a bard playing ballads on my heart

But oh I really ****ed it up this time
And now I realise that I can never make you mine

I was following you all night
Even though I knew that in my heart it wasn't right
You walked round the corner but when I got there you were gone
You walked round the corner but when I got there you were gone
Got there you were gone

Put a phone in my hand and I'm a different man
If I've had a few drinks that night
I'll say all the wrong things at all the wrong times
To all the people I liked

You and me it was never meant to be
I'm just a fool with stupid notions I can't rule

You're quite small and I'm pretty tall
But that didn't hold us back
But looking back now at how things went down
I really wish that it had

For so long you were dancing around my dreams
Now thats the closest I'll get to you or so it seems

But oh I really ****ed it up this time
And now I realise that I can never make you mine

I was following you all night
Even though I knew that in my heart it wasn't right
You walked round the corner but when I got there you were gone
You walked round the corner but when I got there you were gone
Got there you were gone

Thanks everyone!
