Side Post -- Flash Back

I wrote this song in roughly the 10th grade which would have been in 2000 to 2001. I am not sure 100% of when I wrote it, but as I was cleaning my room I came across it with some other papers I had from that time frame.

The following has not been edited from its original format except to be put on the web. I think you can tell a lot about the sort of music that was “influencing” me at that time. The good old 1980’s had a lot of influence on my “song styles” during high school. But to not keep the audience further waiting, here it is.

Song of True Love
By: David McClain
Copyright 2000 to Present

It started back in third grade,
When I bumped into you
We didn’t know what to do.
I looked into your eyes,
And you looked into mine.
That’s when we knew,
It was…

Chorus
True love,
Happens at first sight
True love,
Happens day or night
True love,
Only you and me can make it right.
True love,
Happens day or night
True love,
Only you and me can make it right.

As the years passed by,
When I bumped into you
We knew just what to do
I looked into your eyes
And you looked into mine
That’s when we knew
It was…

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
And as we walked down the isle,
I lifted up the veil
I looked into your eyes
And you looked into my eyes
That’s when we realized

Repeat Chorus 2 times

What memories? As I was typing the song up, I could start to “hear” the tune I had made to go with the song. It is funny looking back at the song too, because chances are I had a crush on someone or was in one of my “emo” moods that I had often back then. But a lot has changed.
