Thanks for listening and for any feedback!!! :-) LYRICS: In a busy, crazy world Where stories go untold, Where people go unseen Let us not be a "has been". Let our love not be in vain Let our joy live through the pain Let our laughter ring out loud Let our tears make no sound As we silently embrace As we kiss and, face to face, Smile and know our love will last Even if our time is past ... Hold me Though the pain may be too sharp Touch me Though the night may be too dark Kiss me Even if life fades away Love me Even if there's just today ... * In a busy crazy world (Hold me) Where stories go untold Where people go unseen (Touch me) Let us not be a "has been" As we silently embrace (Kiss me) As we kiss and, face to face, Smile and know our love will last (Love me) Even as our time is past ... * I love you. **** Song Summary ********* Title: Busy, Crazy World File:Busy, Crazy World - 12 January 2020.SGU Key=C , Tempo 65, Length (m:s)=3:55 No intro. 60 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 60.

Melody has nice musical vibe. Strong lyrics, I really enjoyed your interpretation. Janne Hear My Music: Soundcloud YouTube

I love that first verse and the way the words and rhyme flows. That last line is killer material (I mean that as compliment). You really pulled me headlong into the song and I was there until the end. It was a satisfying journey. Finishing the song by repeating that first verse brought the lyric journey to a really nice end. It's two enthusiastic thumbs up from me! All the best, Noel MY SONGS...
