Scar On My Heart

Scar On My Heart (MJH revised 20150223)

There’s a scar in my heart
Where your love had been.
Living me without you’s
A game I’ll never win.
Just rambling to myself,
I say again and again:
There’s a scar on my heart
Where your love had been.

There’s a part of my soul
Only you have seen.
We’ve been running around
Since we were both fourteen.
Me and you, you and I,
Were an unbeatable team.
There’s a part of my soul 
Only you have seen.

There’s a hole in my heart
Where your love should be.
Together, you and I
Were always meant to be.
So turn your car around
And come home straight back to me.
There’s a hole in my heart
Where your love should be.

(chorus)
My heart is bleeding;
My soul is pleading
For you to come home and stay
They’re full of sorrows,
My todays and tomorrows,
Ever since you went away

Arthur Vaso Date: 2/21/2015 11:18:00 PM Wel if you do, I for one would love to hear it! I play classical guitar and love music! Login to Reply Mark J. Halliday Date: 2/23/2015 10:42:00 AM Put the corresponding lines together in the verses this morning to see how a melody would fit, and brought my Ibanez Artcord to work with my Roland microamp to use on breaks. Ready to figure out the music. I'm more of a rhythm guitar player myself.

Emile Pinet Date: 2/18/2015 12:21:00 PM A great song (poem) with a sad beat and good word choices, seducing the reader with their gentle glow of love. Emile. #7 Login to Reply Mark J.

Janet Eaton Date: 2/18/2015 11:52:00 AM I am a big fan of country music and this would be an awesome song. Love, love, love and chorus. A 7 from me. Janet Login to Reply Mark J. Halliday Date: 2/18/2015 1:22:00 PM I rather like it too, but more familiar with the old stuff. Did recently buy a CD from Lady Antebellum though. Have to tune my guitar and plunk out a melody and chords. You might also like my country-ish song Lady Luck Stomped Out.
