"everything's changing"

this is very much a work in progress, but it's really the first time in a while where i've actually sat down to write something and then record it and then leave it for later scrutiny. like i always say, the lyrics may read one way, but add melody to it and it can be taken on an entirely different course. anyway, here're the first verse and chorus [which are very short, but take up some time on track].
---------------------------
your heart is set in stone
i don't know what to do
i've waited all my life
i've waited all for you

everything's changing
not the way it's s'posed to do
everything's changing
not the way it's meant to do
everything's changing
it's changing me and you
------------------------------
see? very simple, isn't it? maybe simplicity is the key. i don't know if i should add anything onto it, though 49 seconds is a tad bit too short. anyway, i've figured out that the best way to record freely is when nobody's at home, or when there's daylight around so that you can wail away. the newer tunes i made all relate to that [daylight, no one around].

ballads? i think not. i've got this thing called 'mia smiles' in mind, because...um...'when mia smiles/she brings daylight'. how can that not be cool? and who's mia?...for the life of me, i don't know, but i think we can safely say that mia will be one of those exotic looking spanish women who can turn heads. yes, that'll do. a song about an exotic spanish woman who can turn heads.

plus, there's also this thing called 'take me to your leader'...coz i thought that it would be a fun, fun title to have. all i need are synths and a drum machine. it's all good fun.

i'm in the process of the pursuing summer songs.
