Liner Notes

I really enjoyed this one, and had another, completely different go. As you can't put words in bold, I put them in caps instead this time.

Lyrics

I need someone to HOLD Only till it gets LIGHT When the dawn will BREAK I’ll grab my things and RUN

Sorry that I dipped your POCKET I guess you could stay I’m STILL on the EDGE That’s why I was there, to help with your FALL Now I’ve confessed to it all

I just need you to hold me To make me feel human again I need you to hold me So I don’t need to pretend

Good concise story. The required words all seem naturally in place. Good work.

A short story in song and I admire how you managed to put all eight words at the end of lines! A+ skirmish!

Read your lyrics first. So beautifully and naturally written. Then clicked play and went under the spell of your song. So beautifully sang and play. Creative, meaningful and gorgeous. Poetic and meaningful, loving and warm. Instantly likable song. Very nice rhythm. Love it.

Great skirmish using the 8 word prompt. The music is and vocals are very well done, and the story makes sense Well done

Isn't it cool when a prompt triggers more than one song? And, by the way, TPTB have implemented Markdown format, so words between two asterisks like this become bokd.
