Walk It Through

Walk It Through

As I keep
Watching you
You take hesitance steps
You tremble n fall
I race to hold you through
I still don’t reach you on time
You distant to take that fall
Though my heart wana fall
Instead of you

My eyes plead to you
Walk it through
Just
Walk through
Walk it through

Life is a bumpy road
Everyone have to taste the falls
How come when you fall
Im falling with you
And your tears of battling all
Seem to pierce more

So stand there
Walk it through
Just walk through
Walk it through


~Walk It Through~
As I keep,watching you
You take those hesitance steps
Then you tremble n fall

I race to hold you
But I don't reach you in time
Your to distant to take that fall
When you step out of line
Though my heart wants to fall
Instead of you

My eyes and heart beg to please you
to just walk it through
Just walk through
Walk it through

(chorus)
Walk it through baby
One step at a time
You'll only fall down when you step out of line
Walk it through baby
One step at a time
You'll only fall down
When you step out of line

Life is a bumpy road
Everyone has to taste the falls
How come when you fall
I'm keep falling with you
And your tears of battling ill will
Seem to pierce me most of all

So stand there
Walk it through
Just walk through
Walk it through
(to chorus)

The first version is the rough draft, Nasra from "A Window Within Myself" sent me. Though rough draft isn't really the right term. It was and is a complete poem in itself. And a wondefull one at that! Nasra ask me to turn the poem in a music lyric. Though lyrics and poetry are similar in nature they are also differant at the same time.

The second version posted is the finished lyric. You can see the edits and additions that have been made. After reworking it a bit, I emailed Nasra and she had some suggestions and from there we both "polished" off the lyric. It was a very enjoyable experiance working with Nasra who sits half a word away from me in Oman. Nasra is a truely gifted poet and I enourage all to pay her blog a visit and bookmark it as well.

I look forward to working with her again!

Your orginal was GREAT. It just need some "tweaking" to turn it into a musical lyric. I hope people will see the changes and the progression that we both did and perhaps learn from the process!

Ciao!

I found a sea shell anԁ gave it tο my 4 yeaг οld daughter
and ѕаiԁ "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." Shе plаced the shell to hег eаr and ѕcreameԁ.
There was a hегmit crab inside and

Thanks for your exciting article. One other problem is that mesothelioma cancer

from asbestos fiber, which is a very toxic material.
It is commonly observed among laborers in the building industry who've long experience of asbestos. It can be caused by living in asbestos covered buildings for some time of time, Family genes plays an important role, and some individuals are more vulnerable for the risk as compared with others.
