Further Rewrite....Here is what I have so far.... While I can say I am not happy with it and don't consider it finished, I also feel like I am more in touch with what I want to say as a whole. I would like to say it more poetically. As for the bridge, this can be expanded but what I was going for was a play on the words that start with re and to communicate that the first person has a 'backbone' as Donna mentioned. I am considering adding an additional four lines of similar structure to the bridge to create a greater build up to the "end" of his stand. Thoughts please.
CAUTION TO THE WIND
CAUTION TO THE WIND
I wanna hear it from your lips
Is there another guy?
Too bad my questions trip you up,
‘Cuz you’re stumbling on your alibi’s.
That girl’s weekend out to Vegas
They all said you had to take
I asked one of them about it,
she said that Florida was great
Chorus:
Caution to the wind
You threw… Caution to the wind
Its true,
I know where you’ve been,
Throwing caution to the wind.
All your carefully crafted stories,
Woven lies you’ve spun so well
Could not insulate me from the truth,
the look upon your face now tells.
Did you think I wouldn’t find out
or that somehow you’d escape
all the dreadful consequence’s
of the choice that you have made
Chorus:
Bridge:
Regrets.
Sad state. (Or --- too great)
Remorse.
Too late.
Reasons.
Don’t care
The end,
I’m there!
Chorus
