Reason to Live

Hey, y'all! So here are some very simple lyrics I wrote to a very simple song in the middle of the night. Normally I despise over-cheesiness within myself, but I figure if I feel it, why not write it down? If you're reading this and you haven't already, please go read my other lyrics if you please and comment it up! I seriously need all the criticism I can manage. I've been really working a lot more on my own stuff, and once I can semi-master the art of guitarring, I plan on doing a little more than simply posting lyrics on this here blog and playing rough drafts of my songs on my front lawn. Thanks so much for all your support and love. Seriously, it means an incredible amount to me. Anyways, I'll quit rambling now.

Reason to Live

I've always been so scared of falling
But you lifted me right up
And I don't know how
And I don't know why I chose you
But you are reason enough

You make me want to stand up taller
Even though I've got height to spare
And my soul's a little lighter these days
Just knowing that you're there

And baby your colors are blinding
I can feel myself sinking in
And maybe I wouldn't mind it
If you were my reason to live

I love the way you say those smart words
And how you always have something to teach me
You embody perfection
But you're never, ever, ever out of reach

Baby your colors are blinding
I can feel myself sinking in
And maybe I wouldn't mind it
If you were my reason to live

I never could quite see tomorrow
But now every day is you
So, take my hand
And we'll keep on climbing higher
And just enjoy the view

Baby your colors are blinding
I can feel myself sinking in
And maybe I wouldn't mind it
If you were my reason to live

Baby your colors are blinding
I can feel myself sinking in
And maybe I wouldn't mind it
If you were my reason to live

If you were my reason to live



Have a good day, blog readers! :D

  1. Alora!!!! Whatever happens to your brain in the middle of the night is amazing, because these lyrics are amazing. How do you do it?? "Height to spare," colors are blinding," I just love it! Keep it goin girl...I'm serious. I feel like I could be telling my friends someday to "go look up my friend Alora's new youtube channel, she just put up 2 new songs!" ;) No criticism here...I like it all :)
