I have written a new song which I would like to see done in Country style.
It is about trying to control someone too much and then losing control altogether and losing them as a result. It is also about not realising what is happening until it is way too late.
Please let me know your views on the lyrics. Also if there are any musicians out there who can write a good tune for this then please let me know.
Here is is:
Aint no stoppin’ this mustang, Though the reins are way too tight. Why do I feel like a storms a comin, And I’m gonna get drowned tonight?
Aint no jumping this saddle, No exit, it’s way too late. I lost control when I tightened those reins, Used the spurs on my sole soul mate.
And I know I need to let her go but all that I do is hold. Try to pull her back, try to keep control of a love that’s gone stone cold. And I feel the cold but I imagine heat, I don’t know that I’m living a lie. I think I love the ride, I really love the pride and I’m oh so scared of goodbye.
Aint no jumping this saddle, No exit, it’s way too late. I lost control when I tightened those reins, Used the spurs on my sole soul mate.
And I know the feeling that I feel, like a knot deep down inside. But I’m sure the knot can be concealed if it just can be denied. And I hope that time will plaster over those cracks that I don’t see. And maybe time will make her heart go faster when I hold her so close to me.
Aint no stoppin’ this mustang, Though the reins are way too tight. Why do I feel like a storms a comin, And I’m gonna get drowned tonight?
But I know that time will eat away, leave a hole right through her heart, I thought I had control, but I lost her soul and I only drove us both apart. And I hoped that she would stay with me, but tonight she’s slipped my hands. Why did I hold her way too tight, squoze her life with my demands?
Aint no jumping this saddle, No exit, it’s way too late. I lost control when I tightened those reins, Used the spurs on my sole soul mate.
And I know I should have let her breathe, I shoulda given her space to grow. A stifled love aint no love at all, but I just simply did not know. Now that girl won’t look me in the eyes, she won’t listen and she won’t speak. And although I prayed I still found I payed the price of being a control freak.
Aint no stoppin’ this mustang, Though the reins are way too tight. Why do I feel like a storms a comin, And I’m gonna get drowned tonight?

Why do I feel like a storms a comin, And I’m gonna get drowned tonight?
