Now the Love is Gone, a capella

Description

I have a stack of lyrics. I finally got a melody I really liked for this one.
To be honest, I sang to someone's music for part of this. It is just a sketch.
And, it may not be any good. But, thinking that has never stopped me from posting before. If anyone likes it or would care to add music, please, feel free.

Lyrics

I know about love
I've been there before
I knock on the wall of your heart
But you slam the door
I know about love
>
I know about pain
I feel what you send
All the insults, the rage, the blame;
Such wounds you can't mend
I know about pain
>
I'm stuck in this place
More dead than alive
Going back over what has passed
Poisoned, I can't thrive
I'm stuck in this place
>
Now the love is gone
The pain lingers still
How do I live from day to day
Swallowing this pill?
Now the love is gone

	Really? You're making me cry like in the picture. I only sang it once. It is really bare bones. MacJammers are very generous. I don't mind all the imperfections. Thanks, Andrew. Check out my latest song called Alone at Christmas

	very cool. love your voice in this, so human and emotional. I can see this as a jazz number like Alackbass mentioned, or I can also picture a wild electronic version (ala Bjork). very cool. Check out my latest song called yes you told me (that you're cynical)

I'm so
glad you've got this confidence in your voice now; it sounds great. I remember when I first heard you , I commented that you had a great 'Soul' voice.... always love your vibrato. The song and the lyrics are really good and I can tell you that not many would be brave enough to put their unaccompanied voice up there; you did ....and it sounds just great, regards M

	Char Sing away the blues babe! This pain however might become somebody else's pleasure, strange how that works eh? It is always a pleasure to hear your voice and the way you project it. This would be a great project for the right musicians I hope you will find. Good Luck Char and all the best to you. Check out my latest song called yucatec

PaulaMunk	PaulaMunk said 348 days ago (June 10th, 2012)
	I hope someone does something with this. As always, I can fit this to different melodies but I have to choose one to present it as an a capella. Well, it is here now and available. It might well be just another wallflower but I feel good about getting it this far. Thank you so much for the luck. We'll see. The best to you and yours.

Plenty of room ...
for development ... If it were up to me I'd edit out the 'wordless' vocal at the top ... I'd like to take a shot @ music for this but I'd take it from the ground up following your lyric ... I'm not gonna 'critique' it here, if I may I'll send you a PM as to how I hear the lyric could be 'tightend up' for lack of a better way of saying it ... that being said, I feel this :)

Check out my latest song called 0404 aka Girl, You Doll Up Nice Take 2

PaulaMunk	PaulaMunk said 344 days ago (June 14th, 2012)
	I'm not crazy about the vocalizing, either. I do like my lyrics as they are, though. I'm interested in your ideas. Thanks. Check out my latest song called Alone at Christmas

	lettin it out this is coming out of a deep place your really letting it go all this and no backing track your braver than me! Check out my latest song called walkin out my door

PaulaMunk	PaulaMunk said 344 days ago (June 14th, 2012)
	Why, yes, Tim. I've taken some hits. And I think it all happened so late in my life that I'll never turn it around. I'm just lazy and clueless about making the background music. You've heard how little I can do. I really am touched by your understanding. Thanks. Check out my latest song called Alone at Christmas

lyzak	lyzak said 343 days ago (June 15th, 2012)
	Bravo! I feel the 'aloneness' of your delivery is part of its impact. It'll be interesting to hear and discover what someone else might add. The 'poem' is sad, but somehow your delivery gives this listener the picture of a small, green shoot growing out of that sadness. Check out my latest song called Bro .. with A-man and gadzooks

PaulaMunk	PaulaMunk said 343 days ago (June 15th, 2012)
	Aw, I need that small, green shoot. However, I've always had a puce rather than a green thumb. I'm hopeful that that is a possibility. Trying this kind of thing has been the shaft of light that sustains me. I owe all of MacJams for that. Many thanks. Check out my latest song called Alone at Christmas

	Now the love is gone Atmospheric opening. Tuneful and evocative vocal. I must admit I reckon a few guitars wouldn't go astray here, but I am a bit biased about that :-) Nice one! Check out my latest song called Close to Midnight w/ alackbass, rok41, paul f. page, & KyasheMusic
