"Waves of Yesterday" Lyrics Critique - Rock/Acoustic/Jam/Progressive

by Jason Bender
(Fountain, Colorado, USA)

I have a few other songs, but I wanted to see if I was on the right track with my lyrics. These are the lyrics for one of my songs: "Waves of Yesterday". It can be listened to at www.myspace.com/rubberbandmethod


Waves of Yesterday
Rubber Band Method


You like to watch the sun
Rise on the horizon
As it chases the moon away

You went to find yourself
At the top of the highest shelf
With your knicknacks, brickabracks and things

Was there a gleam in your eye?
When you stopped to say goodbye
To the friends that you left behind.

Did you find direction in the waves
That washed all your dreams away
The waves.....the waves of yesterday.

Like salt on an ocean breeze
I had you and you had me
As we watched the sunset on the sea

Was there a gleam in your eye?
When you stopped to say goodbye
To the friends that you left behind.

Did you find direction in the waves
That washed all your dreams away
The waves.....the waves of yesterday.

Great Song
by: Anonymous

Lyrics are amazing. Liked the guitar. but i would change the the intro lead. i think it could be better... have more feeling. but other than that i thought it was great and would buy the song. Keep making music, hope to hear new things from you.

Great Job!
by: Francis

Really great lyrics! And I like the song too, but i sort of agree with the above comment on changing the intro lead...something just doesn't fit. It's not bad by any means, it just doesn't seem to fit this particular song. Other than that awesome job!
