DontRunMeOver

Our names never meet
In rumours
Nor are coupled with cartoonish hearts
On the back of toilet doors

Yet when I catch your fleeting glances
They never fail to conjure up
These wistful hopes

That I could be your synonym
Oh let me be your synonym

I dream one day we'll be the scandal
Your foreign looks, my native charm
My name emblazoned for all time
On the canvas of your upper arm

Fleeting glances
Conjure up
Wistful hopes

That I could be your synonym
Oh let me be your synonym
I could be your synonym
Oh let me be your synonym

For whatever you need
Whatever you need
Your synonym for
Whatever you need

For whatever you need
Whatever you need
Your synonym for
Whatever you need

conjur < conjure? This was quite nice, I thought the ending couplet was rather mundane, though. It's in the title, you don't need it in the poem/song itself.

That bit's kind of the chorus, although I'm trying to think of a better version which has the same rhythm. Its four beats going up (I want to be) then a pause and four beats coming down (your synonym). It works well musically but I think the words themselves are maybe a bit daft.

Or perhaps, "I want to be your synonym for..." and then nothing... would be better, as I was just putting sin in there to explain that I don't want to be a synonym of the person themselves but rather I want to be a part of their vocabulary.

And yep, by conjur I meant conjure. Don't know why I thought it was spelt like that.

Spelt < Spelled, maybe?

Is that right? 'Spelt' is "a past tense and past participle of spell"* and I'm not sure how it's actually different to 'spelled'. Do you know?


*Spelt is also "a hardy wheat mostly grown in Europe". Never knew that.

I like everything except for the;

I want to be your synonym
I want to be your synonym for sin

Simply because you'll be amazed at how many people won't understand it, generally.
