    Are these lyrics good? If not what can I add
    I walk by him holding my breath
    He stares at me with those eyes
    Smiles that beautiful smile
    And my hear beats out of my chest
    I'm just waiting for the day to come
    When he realizes what he means to me

    I've been waiting around for you
    Hoping you would feel the way I do
    And one day when you realize you need me,
    It will be too late prince charming
    Its time to find someone new

    I lay awake at night
    Thinking of what we could be
    When I close my eyes I picture us together
    Nothing in the world makes me happier
    But that's just another dream that will never come true

    I've been waiting around for you
    Hoping you would feel the way I do
    And one day when you realize you need me,
    It will be too late prince charming
    Its time to find someone new

    You build up my hopes
    Then let me down
    Its time for me to let go of the past
    And on day you will see...

    I've been waiting around for you
    Hoping you would feel the way I do
    And today is the day you realize you need me too
    But its to late now
    Goodbye my friend
    Its time for me to find my real prince charming



    What do you think?

    Hi, alexissnicoleee!

    I think that you've written some excellent thoughts! Do you have an idea as to the meter and style of music that your lyrics might be put to, please?

    Thanks!

    I think there's some very strong emotions in this song and that the substance is very strong.

    I would try to be a bit more cryptic at front and try to portray a different perspective maybe in your other verses.

    That way the song strays away from seeming like a run on sentence.

    This song stays to the point but there should be more thoughts involved

    Just my thoughts but overall I like the work.

    I concur with drink. This reads more like a poem than a song. Songs to me are less precise and leave more to interpretation. I do like the chorus idea though. =)

    P.S. I am not a song writer or even in the music business so I most likely don't know what I am talking about- just wanted to give some input..

    Good Luck!
