I told you it would happen and it did. You can read my previous blog if you're wondering what I'm talking about. But I got together yesterday with the other half of “This & That” (www.thisandthatmusic.com), Mr. Eric Vinson, and we wrote “Up In The Air.” I can’t wait for you to hear it. I’ve attached the lyrics and a scratch version of the song – we just recorded it really quickly after we finished writing so that we wouldn’t forget it. Don’t expect a great quality recording. You’ll get the gist of it. And I love it.
Up In The Air - Lindsey Jones and Eric Vinson
Up In The Air
Lindsey Jones and Eric Vinson (8.25.09)
I was high, drifting away on a cloud
Unaware the only way out was down
I fell with the rain as it poured all the way to the ground
And all I’m left with is
Everything so up in the air
And I can’t take it
I either need to learn how to fly
Or how to fake it well
So no one can tell
I second guess every step that I take
Just in case you might be looking my way
What a mess that you and my happiness make
And all I’m left with is
Everything so up in the air
And I can’t take it
I either need to learn how to fly
Or how to fake it well
So no one can tell
Looking through windows
So I can watch everyone else (everybody else)
But I need a mirror
So I can start seeing myself
Everything’s so up in the air
And I can’t take it
I either need to learn how to fly
Or how to fake it well
So no one can tell (I don’t want to fake it)
I’d love to hear your thoughts!!

My favorite line: "I fell with the rain as it poured all the way to the ground."
ReplyDeleteSo great! I love it.
I can't wait to hear the rest...I've felt that way a lot this year :( My favorite line is "learning to fake it well so no one can tell.. " I've felt that nothing (so far) is making the great 'pain' disappear so maybe I just need to fake it... at least my realtionships with others won't be so hard if they all think I'm ok. I know it sounds weird to say that but sometimes I get frustrated when people ask how I'm doing because I don't want to talk about how bad it really is...
