So its sentiment will travel far,
And maybe touch YOUR heart.

And if i should sing the song we wrote,
      It will pierce love,like a dart.

Well done Jim Lad - nice thread - sorry about the horse & cart

A bit better than the general up your arse threads, what's the point of being a folkie bollocks/lets have a moan

Scrumps original appraisal of the lines collected was quite nice

Anyone got a cracking tasteful last two lines?

Now as I await my captain's call
To run through a foriegn land
I remember your gentle face
As I write with trembling hand

Why cannot anyone stick to the meter, much less the sentiment?

And, by the bye, you're not writing a song, you know -- just a lyric.

Other'n that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

Can we please have another go and be a little sensitive to what this thread is really all about.

It barely seems like yesterday,
You held me in your arms.
A mothers love for her only son,
Amongst the Devonshire farms.

Next verse please.....

Tits up can be a pleasant thing,
Tits down too has a special ring.
Tits anywhere or so to speak,
Now let's hear from Liz the Squeak.

Skipping the bits that don't seem like lines of the song, we have this so far:

It barely seems like yesterday,
You held me in your arms.
A Mothers love for her only son,
Amongst the Devonshire farms.

It only seems like yesterday,
But twenty years,since then have past
Lung cancer took you from us,
A year ago you breathed your last.

But in my memories you remain
A light forever more
Memories stay with us
So I'll always feel you near

sun is now setting, your out of harm

But I remember when you were young
Your future like the sun
I have this massive growth on my nose
Will they save me - no one knows

Ok! Let it die.

They buried you in the churchyard
And with you lies my heart

(we need 2 more lines to rhyme with those - anyone?)

All very good for a four-line-song. I was aiming for four verses. Let's try and keep this soul alive for at least the first one. Mind your head on the meter!

Start again?
First two lines... By alec Whose next?

Let's write a song together, about the loss of a loved one from Cancer
The tune:... You choose.
Two lines apiece until four verses are completed.
No more than two lines per verse by any individual. (so no "Guest")
A complete work over by all when we're done (With a vote on the final version)
And finally; we each create a chorus (if needed) with a vote on that also.
No royalties attached or donate it to the cause.
Who's game?
First two lines.... (mind the meter)

It barely seems like yesterday,
You held me in your arms.
