I Will

Liner Notes
I had an idea about a sparkly person and this evolved. Probably not what I initially intended, but that is how it goes.
I am unsure of the chorus repeating lines. A rough draft as it stands.
Lyrics
I am the thunder I am the boom All head turns When I’m in the room
I am a diamond I am a jewel Just one look and Everyone drools
I am the fire I am the flame I need your love To play/win the game
I will dazzle and I’ll glow Put on the perfect show, show, show I will glitter and I’ll gleam I’ll be everybody’s dream, dream, dream I will sparkle and I’ll shine Make you mine, mine, mine
I am the luster In the stone I am the queen Upon the throne
I am the magnet You can’t resist The blood red lips You need to kiss
I am the fire I am the flame You are the moth In this wicked game
I will dazzle and I’ll glow Put on the perfect show, show, show I will glitter and I’ll gleam I’ll be everybody’s dream, dream, dream I will sparkle and I’ll shine Make you mine, mine, mine
Don’t deny that you want you me As much as I want you I’m the rocket to the stars As far as the eye can see
I will dazzle and I’ll glow Put on the perfect show, show, show I will glitter and I’ll gleam I’ll be everybody’s dream, dream, dream I will sparkle and I’ll shine Make you mine, all mine

Nice job on the lyrics, Andrea! I read them first and then saw your liner notes. In my head, I heard more of a slightly-sinister Leonard Cohen interpretation...maybe heavy on bass (or only on bass). I think good lyrics like these tend to "work" with different approaches. I look forward to hearing what your chosen "suitor" will do. Regardless, well done!
Nice job, Andrea….this is FUN! Can’t to hear how it comes out.
Sparkly indeed! You have to go where the muse takes you - and this girl is really something. It makes me think of the song "A Little Bit Alexis" from Schitt's Creek in terms of attitude. What a confident, empowered and fun character you created. I would like to try these Andrea if they are still available. Totally out of my genre but that might be super fun!
I am so pleased that you like these lyrics. I have offered them to someone, but if they are not interested, I would be happy for you to take a shot at them.
Oh I am sorry - I did not check to see if they were tagged open for collab - thanks for letting me know!
A little narcissistic--like a few of my past girlfriends, when I was young and dumb--but this would sound great as a "girl pop power song" as @williamjames mentions. Great job! ❤️
Yeah, she is full of herself -lol. That was the part I didn't intend to write, but I'm ok with what it is. I think the music and vocals will need some attitude :)
Well, this is certainly a girl pop power song if I ever saw one! You have wonderful and confident lines here and the I am me and I am fabulous energy comes through. This should be done in spice girls style!
Girl pop power - I love that! Thank you for your thoughtful and wonderful comments.
Lots of cool details here that help hammer home the meaning very clearly. Particularly enjoyed "I am the luster in the stone", that's a beauty (literally!). I can see what you mean about the repetition in the chorus. I think I'd be tempted to only have repetition on the "mine" in the last line, but it'd depend on the music.
Thanks for your kind comments and also for your thoughts on the chorus. Perhaps the melody will find itself with music.
Ooh this is fun, getting 2000s girl pop vibes in the best way. Nice start!
Thanks, Jacob. That is the exact vibe I was hoping for in these lyrics :)
Beautiful lyrics, singable and meaningful. I hope to hear them.
Thank you, Nadia. I'm so glad you enjoyed my lyrics.
Your rhymes are delightful and I love how the energy builds throughout the lyrics! There's something deceptively sweet about this song until you realize that it's actually quite menacing! "I am the magnet/You can’t resist/The blood red lips/You need to kiss." Fun!
