Zachariah

Hi, I'm Zachariah. Thank you for visiting my thread!

I enjoy writing songs very much. Most of my songs are based on my own life experiences that left a mark on me. I have started writing and recording my own songs on my own Youtube channel which I hope to share with everyone. My channel on Youtube is ZachariahAS. As this forum only allows me to provide URLs after I have made 15 posts, I am unable to provide URLs now but I will do so once I am able to.

So far, I have uploaded 2 songs to my channel:
1. The Boy (type "The Boy - Zachariah into Youtube)
2. Past (type "Past - Zachariah)
The lyrics to the songs above can be found in the posts below. I will be uploading regularly so please subscribe to my channel if you would like to receive updates for when I upload new songs.

Lastly, please also like, comment and share here or in my channel or videos so that I can share my music with more people around the world. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the songs I have written.

The Boy

I'd like to tell the story of a boy
He met this girl when he was just nine
He fell in love but he didn't know then
Oh come on
Which nine year old has a plan?

Those summer times were just beautiful days
They spent their time at the cold clearwater creek
But soon his parents they found new jobs upstate
And they knew these good times wouldn't stay

He hit twelve, moved away
Grew up fast, soon had bills to pay
But he never forget these words he'd been meaning to say

I want to be, want to be, the guy who brings you to your knees
I want to be the guy who loves you endlessly
Wait for me, wait for me, at our same old brown birch tree
I'll get there and with you forever I will be

You see reunions they're the strangest of things
You never know what each moment might mean
They met, one thing led to another and soon they began
To love again like they once did

She moved in, she loved him
That was all they'd ever need
They moved back that year to the old cold water creek
Two years on, as he kissed her cheek
In his pocket was a diamond ring
And he said as he got down on his knee

I want to be, want to be, the guy who brings you to your knees
I want to be the guy who loves you endlessly
Be with me, be with me at our same old brown birch tree
I'll stay there and with you forever I will be

Time passed
They loved
They had all they'd ever need
Years flew
Wrinkles grew
But their gnarled hands always knew
They'd stay forever true

The doves cooed quietly as the girl the guests once knew
Laid peacefully in her best dress in blue
Our boy now old said nothing as he stood
Beside her like how he promised that he would

The songs were sung, speeches were said
He stared at her last resting bed
His hands trembled as he held hers for the last time he could
Stroked her hair, touched her lips
The way he knew she liked when he did
And he whispered as the tears rolled down his cheeks

I'll always be, always be, the guy who brings you to your knees
I'll always be the guy who loves you endlessly
Wait for me, wait for me at our same old brown birch tree
I'll get there and with you forever I will be
I'll get there, with you forever I will be
I'll get there, with you forever I will be
I'll get there, with you forever I will be

Past

It must have been difficult for you
To tell me about the past that still haunts you
About your fears that still plague you
Hiding all those feelings inside

I see the tears welling up in your eyes
I see the fears choking you up inside
I feel the promises broken in front of you
The hurt simmering inside

This is what I'll say
for not one but every single day

I'll take those vacant stares
I'll take those pent-up flares
I'll take your insecurities

I'll take unhappy times
I want your hand in mine
Oh baby know that you'll be fine
Cos right now you're mine

You tell me about your vacant, wide-eyed stares
You tell me how they go into your dreams at night
You tell me you just want them away
You tell me you're scared that they will always stay

Baby take a look at me now
Don't be afraid, Baby don't make a sound
These arms will keep wrapping around you
Wherever you are ill be right there with you

This is what i'll say
for not one but every single day

I'll take those vacant stares
I'll take those pent-up flares
I'll take your insecurities

I'll take unhappy times
I want your hand in mine
Oh baby know that you'll be fine
Cos right now you're mine

I'll be here
Close your eyes
Feel your heartbeat
Next to mine

I'll take those vacant stares
I'll take those pent-up flares
I'll take your insecurities

I'll take unhappy times
I want your hand in mine
Oh baby know that you'll be fine

Know that you'll be fine

Hi everyone, this is a new song that I have written. It is dedicated to the many persons who suffer from Alzheimer's Disease, a disease in which amnesia or memory loss happens at an early stage. This song is also dedicated to the caregivers of persons who have Alzheimer's Disease.

Moments

Holding onto a wisp of a memory
Lighted candles they flickered teasingly
As you smiled the weight of the world lifted off me

Little moves and maneuvers I never see
Pretty soon I find you on top of me
Doesn't take long before these words they dawn on me

Holding you close
Pulling you in
I'm feeling our heartbeat, our heartbeat in sync
Scent of your hair
Red in your cheeks
These moments they're staying, they're staying with me

Sandy beaches and deep blue open sea
Hand in my hand you gripped mine so tightly
As you leaned in, the world didn't matter to me

Holding you close
Pulling you in
I'm feeling our heartbeat, our heartbeat in sync
Scent of your hair
Red in your cheeks
These moments they're staying, they're staying with me

I may forget, may forget, may forget you
I may forget, may forget, no I won't forget you

Holding you close
Pulling you in
I'm feeling our heartbeat in sync

Holding you close
Pulling you in
I'm feeling our heartbeat, our heartbeat in sync
Scent of your hair
Red in your cheeks
These moments they're staying, they're staying with me

Holding you close
Pulling you in
I'm feeling our heartbeat, our heartbeat in sync
Scent of your hair
Red in your cheeks
These moments they're staying, they're staying with me

This song can be found on Youtube on my channel: ZachariahAS.

A special song I wrote for a special someone.

Mockingbird: youtube.com/watch?v=9KmbhDNPpQA

Quiet, innocently
Locks glistening smoothly
Cheeks red as summer day

Fingers combing through your hair
Around you people start to stare
You don't care, you don't care

You dance around the light of day
Painting colours in every way
Mockingbird, dance away

You smile when you're unhappy
You smile when they have been unkind
You smile the brightest when the world is grey
And then you paint away
Mockingbird, you paint away

Lips they part just slightly
The words you find they won't appear
You tell me you don't think you're here

You look around, heart in despair
You suddenly notice all those stares
The things you did you no longer dare

But remember my words from that day
When you danced in the light of day
Painting colours in your own way

You smile when you're unhappy
You smile when they have been unkind
You smile the brightest when the world is grey
And then you paint away
You're everything that's brand new
No one can have any hold on you
You're the very joy you bring
Mockingbird, just sing

Fingers combing through your hair
Around you people start to stare
You don't care, you don't care
You dance around the light of day
Painting colours in every way
Mockingbird, dance away

Dance away
Dance away
Dance away
Dance away
Dance away
