Hey Corey,

I like the tune quite a bit, it is pretty and very easy on the ear.

Lyrics are another matter; in my opinion they can get much better if you get rid of the most obvious cliches and add some fresh images, something personal/specific you two share that we relate to without necessarily having experienced it ourselves. Does it make sense?

Write on, my friend!

Hi Corey,

I take it that’s you playing all those instruments. The music bed has potential, just like your song. Looking over your lyrics, I don’t see anything that hasn’t been said before in a song. But don’t worry about that, love never stops growing. It’s always available to write about 24 hours a day.

I like the lines, After spending so much time together, I think we’ve weeded out the stormy weather. Dropping the “I think” would strengthen it because love has no doubts. Also, pay attention to your Point Of View perspective when telling your story.

Another thing that will help you is keeping it structured in an organized fashion. There’s no need to indicate intro/outro, music break inst, V1, V.2, pre-chorus etc. Marking your chorus is in my opinion is definitely a YES. That’s the heart of the song and that’s where the money maker shakes that hook to reel ‘em in. Plus, a lot of people read over the lyrics first before listening or giving feedback.

What does her love mean to you? Show me. How long have you been married? I bet you there’s 100s of songs during that relationship that’s begging to be heard. Keep up the good writing Corey. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed it.

Happy Songwriting,
Ronnie

Thanks for the feedback. The music on this was done with a yamaha psr-s950. I recorded it with a tascam 32 sd and mixed with reaper. It was done before my wedding about 2 years ago my wife and i dated for 14years before we got married. I intend to do a rewrite on it soon all fed back is appreciated. Im new to all this great to be part of the group
