Play Me a Melody

Sitting here I think With paper, pen and ink I have never known Where has the time flown? Will I be the same? Is this all just a game? Pour me a memory Play me a melody And I will sing a song Making it right each wrong And it will make me strong I drown in my sorrows Thinking about tomorrows But I know it'll be alright As long as I can write Come on and sing with me As happy as can be Pour me a fantasy Play me a melody And I will sing a song Making it right each wrong And it will make me strong I will write on Leave the light on Glad to fight on Singing a song As long as I have a song to sing To hopeful melodies I'll cling I will write on Leave the light on Glad to fight on Singing a song Singing a song...

G'morning, Jo. Your chorus is filled with such a positive outlook. It would stand on its own. Rather catchy as a melody to sing.
