Jack Knight Songwriting Academy
Where your word's become art, and your thought's become music
Nando/Maurice Blanco Collab/Starry Sky
I started writing this song this morning with Blue Sky in mind. We may ad 8 measures after the hook and turn the hook into a pre=hook.
Starry Sky
(Verse 1)
Standing on my roof top
In the middle of the night
We can see the cop cars
Zipping in and out of sight
We can see the river boats
Swaying in the tide
But we can’t see the stars
Beyond the city lights
(Hook/maybe turned into a pre-hook)
Let’s take a trip in the car
Out to the country side
Or we can take a boat ride
Just off the shore tonight
It doesn’t really matter
Let’s escape the city lights
I wanna see your face
Against the starry sky
(Verse 2)
We can see the street lights
And count them one by one
We can see the night train
On its final run
We can see the moon shine
Looks close enough to touch
But we can’t see the stars
Beyond the city lights
Starry Sky

Standing on my roof top
In the middle of the night
We can see the cop cars
Zipping in and out of sight
We can see the river boats
Swaying in the tide
But we can’t see the stars
Beyond the city lights
(Hook/maybe turned into a pre-hook)

(Verse 2)
We can see the street lights
And count them one by one
We can see the night train
On its final run
We can see the moon shine
Looks close enough to touch
But we can’t see the stars
Beyond the city lights

I want to see it's beauty,
inside your beautiful eyes.
where the stars burn brighter
beyond the city lights
?
I want to see the starry sky,
refelect in your beautiful eyes.
from the warm glow on your face,
waiting for the moon to rise.

Hey Stephanie Ankner,
This great stuff! I really like the lines with:
outside these city streets
where the stars burn brighter
You followed the concept very well. I'm going to try and combine your ideas with Angel's.
