FM.PM (Lyric) by oneglove

City lights flood the room It’s been years since we could see Now you’re painted up in rosy hues You’ve always been beautiful to me Tonight we’ll be on empty roads Beyond the cable lines You’ll fall asleep with subtle grin I’ll know that you are mine Chorus: All your songs I hated are still on my radio I’m waiting, waiting for their spin Cause every time the needle, pulls me back to you You’ve always been my favorite phonograph Are you on your porch Painted in moonlight? Have you thought of me? Cold rivers in springtime Do you remember When things weren’t planned? The odds were against us But we took a chance, we took a chance [Chorus] Windows down, voices loud [Chorus] I still know every word I’ll still sing every word I’ll be in my car Driving through the night Praying that your light Will be on Will be on

I'm not sure where you're going with the rhyme scheme in this. That is to say, there are lots of '-ight' rhymes at irregular intervals but seemingly nothing else to carry the rhythm. You start with a solid rhyme structure in the first verse but then ditch it straight afterwards. That being said, of course, on the basis that I don't know what this sounds like when put to music.

I know this isn't your fault, but 'You're beautiful, you're beautiful' makes me think of that awful James Blunt song. What possessed him to release it is beyond me, honestly.
