New Songs, Updates, And More.
So! Lifelong has been going through some hard times, with family things going on and other interesting things i dont have time to write, but just keep us in your prayers and we'll keep pressing on. im gonna get back into song-writing mode, so here are a few things i wrote while i was half-asleep a few weeks ago.
Stand In The Rain
alley's song (C)Copyrighted
sometimes people wont wait
wont wait to see if your okay.
sometimes people will tease
they dont want to be you today
but really, they have no idea how hard it is..
[chorus]
to stand in the rain
to fall down
to live your life without a sound.
to drop down,
and try to find another place to go.
to stand in the rain.
[end chorus]
Sometimes people try
they try to talk you out of their own little lies
Sometimes people laugh,
they laugh at you because your so out of life
but really they dont know how hard it is..
[chorus]
to stand in the rain
to fall down
to live your life without a sound.
to drop down,
and try to find another place to go.
to stand in the rain.
[end chorus]
Well i wait,
and i dont tease
and i laugh because its so funny
that theythink its alright
to do the things they do to you tonight.
because really they dont know how hard it is
[chorus]
to stand in the rain
to fall down
to go through life without a sound.
to stand in the rain.
[end chorus]
talking - ill make a promise to you tonight
God will be there through the pain
and the suffereing and the tears and the rain.
he wont be the one laughing, the one teasing, and lying. God is there, open your eyes and see him. let him guide you through the rain.
[chorus]
to stand in the rain
to fall down
to live your life without a sound.
to drop down,
and try to find another place to go.
to stand in the rain.
[end chorus]
I Am Singing
alley's song, (C)copyrighted
because we all know one time in our life
our hearts were drowning in emotions.
and we feel like sometimes we cant just take it,
but we can. yes we can.
[chorus]
Because God, he's here.
God, he's right in front of you
God, he's standing there
ready to wipe away our tears
Come with me,
tonight im singing,
holding onto what im feeling
and letting go of the pain i felt before.
forgetting lies like they never happening
beautiful skies shining above us now,
i am singing.
[end chorus]
Because we all know someday our hearts
wont take it
one day our lives will not be worth anything,
unless we believe..
[chorus]
Because God, he's here.
God, he'sright in front of you
God, he's standing there
ready to wipe away our tears
Come with me,
tonight im singing,
holding onto what im feeling
and letting go of the pain i felt before.
forgetting lies like they never happening
beautiful skies shining above us now,
i am singing.
[end chorus]
screaming his name
i am singing
forgetting all those games
because God, hes here
God, he's right in front of you
God, he's standing there,
ready to wipe away our tears
I am singing!
yeah,
i am screaming,
screaming it loud and clear..
and i am singing!
i wrote 'I Am Singing' the other night, when i got home from the Revolve. Because i was feeling like i should just let it all out. so yeah.. those are my newest songs, and i have a notebook full of old ones i will get to posting.
Sarah's computer is currently not letting her get on HSB, so she wont be posting her songs anytime in the future until she can figure out how to unblock it, but you can visit her regular blog here - http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/crazy4cherries
and you can visit my regular blog here - http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/myhome, or http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/knockingonmydoor. Knockingonmydoor is my other song blog, which is updated more often.
Until later,
Alley
new song.
this is what happens when i stay up late
and watch The American Mall.
and thinking about how life would be a whole lot better
if all we did was thank God for what we have, and what we dont have,
and pray every chance we get.
so we wont end up like those people who worry about life,
when if they had God they'd be awhole lot better.
-
I keep telling you its gonna be okay.
telling myself its gonna be okay.
though time and time again i cant deal with the pain,
now im saying love is not a game.
[chorus]
so where do i turn when im crashing down.
and where do i turn when i cant hear a sound
and where do i turn when i dont know where to go.
where do i turn when im alone?
this is home
this is the place where it all started
this is home
this is the place where it began
im not gonna waiste my life,
looking in the past,
im gonna live today
the best i can.
this is home
yeah, this is home.
[end of chorus]
im who i am today because what i was before
the person they all hated the person they ignored
but nows my chance to make things right
nows my chance, to stop the fight
[chorus]
so where do i go, when im finally here
and where do i go, when my dreams are near
and where do i go, as the world flies by
where do i go when im not alone, when its all okay
when nothings a game, when my life is great..
this is home
this is the place where it all started
this is home
this is where it began
im not gonna waiste my life
looking in the past,
im gonna live today,
the best i can,
yeah this is home, yeah. this is home.

Its The Happiness Inside That Your Feeling <333
hey guys, Alley here. Sarah hasnt posted in awhile, so the Turn It On cover was me. it was a little weird and quiet and gross cause it was late and i was tired i just wanted to get it done before the next day.
as you can tell, its been awhile since we've written anything, but i thank you for keeping in touch.
alots been going on, and now that schools starting its gonna be harder to keep up with everything, so if this thing starts dying its cause we dont have the time anymore. we're still working on getting our songs done and stuff.
and im FINALLY learning how to play the guitar.
but as you can read over here ----->
that we seriously didnt really think about everything before creating LIFELONG. it was just an idea Sarah had, and from that we started a band.
but thanks for keeping in touch and we'll keep you posted as the year goes on.
happy schooling.

Cover For Turn It On- Justin Stein
Jul. 10, 2008
Its Not thatt..
Its Not That..
((a song copyrighted by Liveitloveitbringit))
the best thing about
today is that we're not yelling..
not fighting about what happen in the past
its not that i dont enjoy your presence.
its that the drama i get is goingg bad
im always gonna love you
im always gonna care
sometimes i just need some time alone
its not that im jealous
its not that im not through
its just that im sorry i hurt you.
i wasnt thinking when i said we were through
i wasnt thinking when i insulted you
its not that i hate you
its not that im all done
its just that i dont knoww what to do
the best thing about tonight is that we're together
not bickering about things that make us wrong
its not that i dont love you
its not that i feel we're drifting apart
its that all i want to do is be your friend
thats all i wanted from the start
the days we spent together,
the times we thought we had it all,
are the times i miss the most
are the times i loved the most
and really..
its not that i want you to hear this
its not that i want to hurt you
its just that sometimes, to let you know how i feel
its easier in song,
than it is
in person

Why is this happening?
why is this happeningg?
this cant be happening.
why arent we getting along?
i told you i'd try
you told me i'd cry
i told you this was going wrong
i didnt know how to handle your drama
i didnt know how to make things right
maybe its you,
maybe its me,
or maybe its all the possibilities
i tried
and i cried
you were right!
i was wrong!
im sorry we're not getting along!
but i really need
some time to
work things out
to make things right
i cant take this
i cant take this..
why is this happeningg?
this cant be happening.
why are we getting along?
i told you your right
you told me i'd die
and now im sitting here
trying not to cry..
to cryy..
you were right
i died, only inside
you were right!
i was wrong!
im sorry we're getting along!
but i really need
some time to
work things out
to make things right
i cant take this
i cant take this..
this isnt what i thought it would be
i thought of all the posibilites
i thought about you
you thought about me
we thought it would work inbetween
but now im alone
and now you dont care
and its still a crazyy world.. out there...
why is this happeningg?
this cant be happening
why is this all goingg on?
i told you you were right
i cried, i died
ive done EVERYTHING there is to do
and still
i cant win you . .
So why is this still happening?
Whoahh, Havent posted on this thing in a while.
Actually, thats only because i havent written any songgs.
Well, thats a lie. i wrote one for a story i was working on, but it was only a paragraph, and i didnt get it all the way finished yet, im workingg on it though!
Part of the issue is that Sarah has been kind of busy, and so have i. We havent seen eachother for about.. a year, maybee.
And as you can tell, the music part of the whole Lifelong Journey isnt goingg very well either. although i will try to get my cover on one of our songs up in a few days.
They've been to longg, so i haventt been able to singg it all, since ive been busy O_X
so yeahh, i WILL get to that, i promise.
anything else?
uhm. I dont think so.
Thanks for taking the time to support Lifelong!
Invisible
You Needed Time To Think About Lots Of Things ,
Everynight U Locked Your Door and Laid On Your Bed
You Needed Some Time To Think About If You Were
Invisible
(chours)
Well Your Not
Not At All
I Know We Can Be Harsh Sometimes
But Your Not No Your Not Invisible
(end of chours)
You Needed Some time to think about lots of things
tonight you didnt lock your door
You needed some time to think about lots of things
you needed some time to see if you were
Invisible
(chours)
Well Your Not
Not At All
I Know We Can Be Harsh Sometimes
But Your Not No Your Not Invisible
(end)
You Needed Some time to think about lots of things
all the things that happen in the past
You needed some time to think about lots of things
you needed some time to see if you were invisible
(chours)
Well Your Not
Not At All
I Know We Can Be Harsh Sometimes
But Your Not No Your Not Invisible

Another song!
Opened my eyes
I was in dark
And now it’s light
God’s make a mark
On my heart
He’s opened the door
Made the whole world brighter
And I need some more
Of your love
You’ve opened my eyes
Forgiven my soul
Made me a whole new person
I’ve let you in
My heart
And I’m sure glad I did
I didn’t know you
Could help me
But you made me new
A whole new person
And now I’m whole
All put together
And if you pull
Nothing will happen
You’ve opened my eyes
Forgiven my soul
Made me a whole new person
I’ve let you in
My heart
And I’m sure glad I did
It was foggy and dark
Now it’s crystal clear
I looked in the mirror
And saw a whole new person
You’ve opened my eyes
Forgiven my soul
Made me a whole new person
I’ve let you in
My heart
And I’m sure glad I did

Can't you see
Here is another one of our songs.
Can’t you see
There you are, standing there
The boy I’ve dreaming of
We would make a great pare
Come talk for a while
I look in you eyes
So very blue
You look into mine
I see love
Like a rocket
You’re strong and daring
Like a dog
You’re friendly and protective
Like a cat
You’re cute as a button
Can’t you see I like you?
You look over at me
And see a girl
I look over at you
You’re a prince in shining armor
With your sword so silver
With your helmet, mirror reflection
With your horse so strong and pure
Like a rocket
You’re strong and daring
Like a dog
You’re friendly and protective
Like a cat
You’re cute as a button
Can’t you see I like you?
No matter how hard I try
I can’t get you off my mind
Your one in a million
The one of my dream
If only you liked me back
Everything would be perfect
Like a rocket
You’re strong and daring
Like a dog
You’re friendly and protective
Like a cat
You’re cute as a button
Can’t you see I like you?
Like a rocket (rocket)
You’re strong and daring (strong and daring)
Like a dog (dog)
You’re friendly and protective (friendly and protective)
Like a cat (cat)
You’re cute as a button (a button)
Can’t you see I like you? (I like you)
Can’t you see I like you?
Can’t you see?
Can’t you see?
I like you
Can’t you see?
That I like you
Can’t you see I like you?
