Beth Nielsen Chapman commented on NeilOS's lyric:

"really close! Again...NOT the same amount of syllables as the melody...

here's a version that fixes that:

Well we can talk all night
Doesn't really matter
Wrong or right
This mountain we climb
Let's not fight
I don't want to ___ if I'm....
Never gonna change your mind

Keep trying diffent senarios! But follow the guide above as far as the short phrases and where the rhymes fall!

oh...another possible last line:

I'm gonna to have to ____ if I'm....
Never gonna change your mind

I know this isn't where you really want to be / So reach out for my hand and put your trust in me
They say unexpected things happen in the spring / We really didn't know this is what it would bring
Even though no one knows where we're heading / It's a time that we find love is spreading
Even though we don't know where this is heading/There's lots of kindness that we can be spreading
Porch Visits
Hearts Touching
'Cause love's everlasting, but life is short
Be a little kinder with more tenderness
Focus on the things that bring happiness
And promise myself that I'll never quit
Live to the fullest and kiss life on the lips
Had so many chances and shots at romances / I let them all go by and I still wonder why, wish I could go back somehow
All my 80's heroes are gone / Now and then I still play their songs
It's true, the years don't last long / Yesterday's heroes are all gone
I think we should go / Find a big container / Take our woes / Place them inside / Top it with a bow / Put it where the sun don’t shine / ‘Cause I’m never gonna change your mind
So, this is our fate / Doing this all over / Take the bait / Finding our sides / We sit and wait / (But) We won’t see a white flag fly / And I’m never gonna change your mind
Counting all those scars / Lost in all your spite / Fighting it so hard
There's a little part / Free of any spite / Where you can't discard
Take a look around and see / A bunch of people just like us / Busy digging in our heels / Until there's nothing else to discuss
The world is very polarized / Sticking to our point of view / Makes it pretty hard to disguise / My opinions when it comes to you
Re-write Version #3 (based on Beth's feedback) (slight variation on Version #2): Well, we could talk all night / Doesn't really matter / Wrong or right / Taking our sides / Let's not fight / 'Cause I have to resign / That I'm never going to change your mind
Re-write Version #2 (based on Beth's feedback): Well, we could talk all night / Doesn't really matter / Wrong or right / Taking our sides / Fight or flight / Still I have to resign / That I'm never going to change your mind
Re-write Version #1 (based on Beth's feedback): Well, we go 'round and 'round / Never any closer / Up and down / This mountain we climb / All I found / We're never going to align / I'm never gonna change your mind
Well, we could talk all night / It's not going to matter / 'Cause proving who's right / Is a mountain we climb / Been through this / Too many times just to find / I'm never going to change your mind
Well, you’re never going to change my mind / I can feel us drifting further apart
Well, I'm never going to change your mind/You've got your own answers to find
A love without regrets, made me my best
Each day, an answer to my prayers (for...)
Lord knows you're pretty, but you're so much more/'Cause no one's made me feel this way before
