Sure of You - lyrics

I’m thinking

Thinking about you

and the situation you’re in

You have fallen for a fickle child

who will choose the apple

and only think once she decides

But I

who am not sure of anything

I am sure of you

In time I’ll show you everything

this you need to know

So please be patient

Don’t make me hurry ‘cause I

take a while to unfold

I know you’re curious

at what’s at the core of me

but take a look in the mirror

that’s my entirety

I who am not sure of anything

I am sure of you

In time I’ll show you everything

this you need to know

I know you’re trying to compete

with my indecision

that refuses to let me go

I know you think

I might love you today

but so what of today

if I won’t love you

tomorrow

this you need to know

I who am not sure of anything

I am sure of you

I won’t change my mind again

this I promise you

    Thanks guys. Veronique, I am a musician also, these words already are a song. I just wanted to post them up now, and when music becomes available on RedBubble, you can hear the music they go with!

    VBS Awesome Lyrics Bridget!! I write a little myself. What Genre do you like best (what would suit these lyrics for you?) VBS

    Thanks Craig! I am a songwriter myself so these lyrics already have music to them. I’m making my album at the moment so I’ll let you know when it’s done. I write my songs on piano – this song has a bit of a Massive Attack feel with string arrangements and skeletal piano chords – so excited about it….

    What music do you do?

  • Craig Shillington

    Craig Shillington

    Well, I am the opposite ;) I have lyrics written but no music to match ;) I write my lyrics with an Alternative Style in mind. Heavily influenced by The Cure, with more of the darker tones (more so than punk) that goes with their style. Spent some time in a recording studio with an Ex … so am excited to maybe one day get these lyrics matched with music and make an album. Might be a long ways off though!! I would LOVE to know when you have done the recording. I have a photo that is matched to Massive Attacks Teardrop!! I LOVE that song! :)

    Hey Bridget… any news on when music will be available?
    I’m looking for a song/singer/musician to mention in the 2nd episode of Wolf Hollow. I suspect the cd might get fried by the unicorns but that’s the perils of living in a fantasy world!

  • Bridget a'Beckett

    Bridget a'Beckett

    Hey Empress. Album will be finished in June, release planned for July. I’ll let you know dates when they’re finalised. Fried by unicorns? Now that is one thing I never thought would happen to me, but sounds interesting…..

    Craig, i love Teardrop too. Show me the photo you have that matches it – would love to see….

  • Bridget a'Beckett

    Bridget a'Beckett

    oh wow oh wow! I love it – absolutely perfect for Teardrop. Ha, I’m full to the brim after seeing that. Great Craig!

    Bridget – these lyrics are wonderful. For so long i have been meaning to sit down in a quiet spot for a while and read them. That way i can absorb them so much better.
    I love this. I’m a big Bjork fan and am highly influenced by her filmclips. She’s romantic yet completely out there at the same time. I can see that kind of style suiting you. Especially after meeting you too!! Great stuff… i’m looking forward to the album. gem :)

  • Bridget a'Beckett

    Bridget a'Beckett

    Thanks Gem. I’m a Bjork fan too – am actually recording an orchestra this weekend. Am so looking forward to it – the album is really starting to take shape now… xx

    Hi Bridget, just listening to a couple of your songs from your MySpace. Love your style, especially “On your own” – It should be on a Movie soundtrack!!! If I picked what music went with what part of a movie, I’d pick this song to be playing at the time when the story takes a positive learning turn! It matches so well!!!

    Will look out for your stuff!

    Hey, get in touch with that fellow Greg of that kids show in Australia and known around the world… I can’t think of the show right now, my child’s too old for that now, but you’‘d do great getting more international exposure. Keep all of us posted where and when.
