Because

[aresx]

I opened my eyes
And looked into the sea
And saw the reflections
Of the stars
You know they shine
Because of you

I opened the door
And walked into the cold
Winter morning air
You know I feel it
Because of you

It started to Rain that day
And I had to outrun the ocean
I grabbed your hand
But you let go

I opened my eyes
And stared into
A field of endless fires
And walked away as they burned
Down the only town i've ever known
you know i only left
Because of you

It started to Rain that day
And I had to outrun the ocean
I grabbed your hand
But you let go

I looked into the ocean
And tried throwing a compass
Because I miss you
Because I don't want to live knowing
What could have been
Because I'm sorry
Because I loved you.


another from me. if i'm putting too many on here, feel free to tell me :P

I really like it, however you can skip or improve the last part where you mention the compass, it makes it boring. But in general is OK. I've got a question 4 u. I guy told me that my writing is clumsy... Do you think it is?

I like it, it seems like the kinda lyrics that could go well with music if you get what I mean. A lot of the time lyrics just look like poems or short stories, but I can imagine singing these, but then everyone sees things differently.

It's kinda cliched for my tastes but, as jimmysuffolk said, it all depends on the music. I could see this as a real winner down by a campfire with an acoustic guitar in hand... best buds all around... ab ottle of cheap wine... sounds like a good time to mellow.
