When the Bough Breaks (song?)

by Jeff Mason — Read all 207 poems by Jeff Mason

Monday, June 14, 2004

When the bough breaks...

and there's no one
there to catch you,

when you fall...

I'll be there for you;
to see you safely through...

I'll always be the one
that you can call.

When the clouds come,
and the rains pour...

When the darkness
seems to overcome the light;

I'll be the rising sun,
that burns away the gray,

I'll be daybreak
that pierces through your night.

I feel the ache inside --
The pain you hold at bay,

And I know that you
believe you've lost your way...

But see my love for you,
as you look deep in my eyes...

And know...
that you should always realize...

That....

When the bough breaks...

and there's no one
there to catch you,

when you fall...

I'll be there for you;
to see you safely through...

I'll always be the one
that you can call.

I loved this Jeff, this would make a beautiful song,

When the bough breaks...

and there's no one
there to catch you,

when you fall...

I'll be there for you;
to see you safely through...

I'll always be the one
that you can call.

Thanks Anna. Yes, I'm friends with some BMI writers, and I'm constantly seeking their advice. Here, you only see a small sampling of the songs and melodies I've written. I can construct the melodies, but I'm trying to team with some good composers who can write the actual music (have at least 3 potentials).

Song or poetry...I like the sense and the rythym
of what you do, Jeff. Yes...this would make a good
song, I think. You've got to find a melody writer
to team up with. Have you checked out BMIs pages?
