Filtered love (lyrics)

Filtered Love

Verse 1-

I remember when people thought I was crazy
for always running back to you,
I never could explain it, but til this day
you're the only one I've given my all to.

I shake my head, seeing you now
living how,
I always asked you to.

If only , if only, you can take back
all you put me through...

Chorus-

Maybe our love could've conquered the world
hand in hand, me as your girl.
Maybe our love could've taken us places.....
wedding bands, filling finger spaces.

Can we filter this love by seperating,
good from bad, some need replacing.

I dont know about you...but I'm over here,
debating.

Verse 2-

Im flashin back to when, people told me
to move on, theres more to have than you.
I never could quite grasp it, and til this day
you've got a way, proving it isn't true.

I roll my eyes, hearing you now
talk about,
things I wanted you to do.

If only, if only, you can take back
all you put me through...

Chorus-

Maybe our love could've conquered the world
hand in hand, me as your girl.
Maybe our love could've taken us places
wedding bands, filling finger spaces.

Can we filter this love by seperating,
good from bad, some need replacing.

I dont know about you...but I'm over here,
debating.

Bridge-

Take our fights,
aching cries,
forgive them,
relive them,
lets start tonight.

Chorus-

Maybe our love can conquer the world
hand in hand, me as your girl.
Maybe our love can take us places
wedding bands, filling finger spaces.

Can we filter this love by seperating,
good from bad, some need replacing.

I dont know about you...but I'm over here,
waiting.

Over here waiting.

    Chels. That was very well written. It has inspired me to pick up my guitar and strum a tune while I sing. Fantastic work!

    Whaaaa.

    You know how I felt about this, I told you before. It's beautiful and I really can't wait to hear you sing this... the melody I have in my head with this is so singsongy and beautiful.

    "Take our fights,
    aching cries,
    forgive them,
    relive them,
    lets start tonight."

    This part melts my heart. The 'forgive' them part is really just beautiful.

    Theres only ONE part I don't like..

    "Maybe our love could've taken us places.....
    wedding bands, filling finger spaces."

    It feels super forced, the "filling finger spaces". But I don't know what else can go on there and make sense, lol. Just one gripe.

    "I roll my eyes, hearing you now
    talk about,
    things I wanted you to do."

    This is another favorite part of mine.. because it's just so darn true. You finally hear that someone gets a clue and does what you'd always longed for them to do, and whaddya know, it doesn't REALLY matter to you now.

    This overall is just really beautiful.

    Can't wait to hear the music to this, going to sound so good, but I know it'll make me cry, these lyrics are so thought provoking and really emotionally charged.

    Love these Chels, The flow of the lyrics are really good and it shows the emotion of the author rather than the story, although we can pick up on the basics of the story and that there is only one person who is holding on the hope and the regret of the end of relationship.

    I really like the word debating being in it, because perhaps this shows that sometimes your mind tells you to move on and you are better off, but other times it debates this thought with one of what could have been and might still be... which is so common in break ups.

    I think many will relate tot his song and I look forward to hearing the tune.

    When are you going on America's Got Talent??? :p
