Where your word's become art, and your thought's become music

Didn’t mean to © Stephanie Ankner 2009-06-03

Loss for words, Nothings coming to mind.
Find myself here, In anotha place and time
Cant recall, just how I got here.
Must have been from loven you.
I Swore off from love all together,
Cuz I knew what it could do.

But Somehow along the way,
I must of broken down these walls.
Cuz you made your way into my life,
and now I can feel the rainfall.

Ch
Didn’t mean to let you in,
Didn’t mean to fall in love
That’s not what’s supposed to happen here
It’s not what I wanted at all..

Didn’t mean to love you,
So why am I in this place
Didn’t want to need anyone in my life
So why can’t I erase,
oooh Didn’t mean to let you in, (and)
Didn’t mean to fall in love…

Vs
I want to go back, to
When we agreed to be just friends.
Cuz I would make sure my heart wasn’t vulnerable
So none of this could of ever happened,

But it’s too late for that,
The damage has already been done.
I don’t understand my life anymore,
Nothing will ever make sense.

Ch
Didn’t mean to let you in,
Didn’t mean to fall in love
That’s not what’s supposed to happen here
It’s not what I wanted at all..

Didn’t mean to love you,
So why am I in this place
Didn’t want to need anyone in my life
So why can’t I erase,
oooh Didn’t mean to let you in, (and)
Didn’t mean to fall in love…
That’s not what’s supposed to happen here
It’s not what I wanted at all..

might add a kicker.. and change last line in verse 4
a little feedback...i love this song... but the structure needs a little work.
i wanna hear a beginning middle and end to the story, the end can be a mystery but
the "agreed to be just friends" verse needs a bit more work it needs to be stronger.
more passion because your talking about how vulnerable the heart is but then it does not rhyme or tie in with anything,
here is a rough example to demonstrate what im saying:

i remember when we agreed to be just friends
i thought i made sure my heart wasnt vulnerable
that just was not possible
i want to go back to an easier time
please hear me
can we just burn this bridge
and make amends?
i know damage has been done
and i dont understand my life anymore
help me walk away from you
cuz i cant live with myself
if i walk out this door

(kind of her asking for help from him to resolve it)








love the rainfall verse
think that as hook or first chorus
then the other chorus about "not what i wanted at all...

lst verse is a little too similar to chorus

all in all i love it so keep up the great work!!

xxangelxx.
