Song Lyrics
I enjoy writing lyrics to songs, but do not put music to them myself.
If you are, or aim to be, a successful musican or producer of music and wish to use any of my lyrics or suggest a collaboration, contact me.
If you want to listen to a recording of one of my lyrics, try the following:
See below a few samples of my lyrics that are yet to be recorded.
Of You
Text: James Tunney
As the storm gathered
The darkness grew
Sun disappeared
I thought of you
As the light failed
The troubles brew
Fear unleashed
I thought of you
As the tiger woke
The heroes few
The devil spoke
I thought of you
With vision clear
And courage bright
No shred of doubt
You helped me fight
As the bad news came
The hopes flew
The horse got lame
I thought of you
As the burglar stole
The presents new
When in the hole
I thought of you
With heart of gold
And sense of right
You helped us get
Back into the light
Inscape
Text: James Tunney
Starlight slumber
Heart flung
Angel of the rocks
How she sung
Storms deliver
A trembling shiver to stay
At a last supper
On the dark side of the bay
Bright the wind
To quench the fears
Of tormented minds
Full of questions full of fears
Tell me what
Tell me who
Tell me if you really knew
For I do know
Such a place
I do know where
Fonder cares are
Kept there
So do not worry
Do not fret
The golden seeds
Will blossom yet
MoonAngel
Text: James Tunney
You came to me
Out of the blue
When things were dark
Didn’t know what to do
You came through the clouds
On shafts of light
To show the path
And banish night
My light from heaven
My moon angel
Shadows were closing
I had lost my way
The road was hard
Didn’t know what to say
You lit the sky
Broke through the gloom
To lift the siege
And brighten my room
My light from heaven
My moon angel
I’ll sleep tonight
I’ll drift away
I’ll dream sweetly
Till break of day
I’ll rest my head
I’ll lay me down
You stroke my cheek
You shift my frown
My light from heaven
My moon angel
