Dream Girl 03:49
Dream Girl Written by André Wilson Vs Sitting at my piano keys, writing melodies About love and life I’ve been grindin hard daily, no social life lately Trying to get my head on straight and my money right Success is so elusive and then again for me, so is love Then again for me so is love Sometimes I wonder Will I ever be good enough for my Dream Girl? Hook Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh , Oh (x2) Vs I’ve overcome so many tears, over these many years And yet still on remains (it’s finding her) Through growth and maturity, I now value security Oh how my priorities have changed Time is now a luxury that I feel that I can’t afford anymore That I feel that I can’t afford anymore Sometimes I ask myself Will I ever be ready for my Dream Girl? Hook Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh , Oh (x2) Bridge Hey? What’s good? Agh? I Can’t even do it tonight. Same thing I do every night. Got songs to write. Beats to make. Deadlines to meet. That’s all I do. Vs So is it possible to yield to love before first achieving success? Nope. And can I really love her if I’m not at my best? Motivation is clouded as I’m weighed down my so much stress? How is it I can miss someone whom I’ve never met? I need independence so I can love her whole heartedly With every fiber of my being. With every part of me. And the part that makes this so difficult (for me) must be That I see a glimpse of the women that I want in almost every woman I meet But I can’t let myself fall for her yet Cuz I don’t have it all for her yet Seem all this time alone makes all these pretty girls so hard to forget Gambling with my passions Success is on black and love is on red This is a high-risk game I’m playing Spin it! Call it Roulette You say I’m always on my grind And forever in a hurry What if I don’t want to be just fine or great. What if I want extraordinary It’s so necessary But then again so is she So I wrote this song about my Dream Girl Hook Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh , Oh (x2) Outro Got a lot of passion Got a lot of Ambition Success is where I’m Driven But love is the mission And I’ve got to find a way To have both of them one day Til then Im, Wishin © 2012 André Wilson

Distant Heartbeat Written by André Wilson ft. Ebraheim Aseem Intro I loved you with all my heart And I still do It’s been four months since we’ve been torn apart Yet somehow I still feel you (Aye) It’s getting so impossible to let it go; to let you go So if you stop and listen You’ll hear my heartbeat in the distance (Say Oooooo) Verse Stage set. Spotlight. I'm trying to love these new girls but something's not right It's like my heart’s on stage and your conducting the score Cuz you're the only one my heart will beat for Missin’ you terribly My heart aches worse than you could ever believe I hope I’ll survive Because that pain’s now the only time I remotely feel alive Ch Distant Heartbeat Real love listens when the heart speaks But you're too many miles away So I wonder if you can hear what mine has to say Distant Heartbeat Separating me from your love has scarred me We’ve gotta make this work and I’ve been trying to figure how Can’t say the word Goodbye because it hurts when it comes out Vs Pain in my chest, Cardiac arrest This relationship’s been put to the test We met. I was a mess You brought out my best I gave you my all Now I have nothing left You stole my heart and breath Two counts grand theft We had to say goodbye But it’s not the end of the story We’ve got that special connection wherever we go Yeah we got that 4G I still feel your heartbeat But it’s faint Let my other half go I can’t Forecast predicts clear skies But all I feel is rain I don’t only miss you I miss us together Tried to move on with life But with you it’s much better Pay us minute and hours And we’ll spend time wherever So we can hopefully One day buy forever Until then I need you to think of me Every time you hear this song Reminisce about the memories You’re like Windex to my mirror Somehow with you life is clearer Can’t wait til the day when you and I Are once again we’re Ch Distant Heartbeat Real love listens when the heart speaks But you're too many miles away So I wonder if you can hear what mine has to say Distant Heartbeat Separating me from your love has scarred me We’ve gotta make this work and I’ve been trying to figure how Can’t say the word Goodbye because it hurts when it comes out Vs – Ebraheim Aseem Your heart beats with the same frequency that mine beats Your mind reaches depths just like the ocean I dive deep, my vibe beat a wave come ride me They talking consummation. It’s mental penetration Spiritual stimulation. I love our conversations. And yet our situation, this distance for instance has me doubting our relationship. I sailed a way or better your heart to chase my Dreams Yet all the things I can pursue are worthless if I’m loosing you Am I loosing you love? Since I moved away Can your tone deaf heart hear what mine has to play? Close your eyes, Meditate Clear your mine, elevate Feel your heart levitate As our love resonates A beautiful star glows bright in the distance But you don’t need to touch it to feel it’s existence Our love shines strong even though the glow is hard to see I feel you heart speak every time my heart beats Ch Distant Heartbeat Real love listens when the heart speaks But you're too many miles away So I wonder if you can hear what mine has to say Distant Heartbeat Separating me from your love has scarred me We’ve gotta make this work and I’ve been trying to figure how Can’t say the word Goodbye because it hurts when it comes out Outro I loved you with all my heart And I still do It’s been four months since we’ve been torn apart Yet somehow I still feel you (Aye) It’s getting so impossible to let it go; to let you go So if you stop and listen You’ll hear my heartbeat in the distance (Say Oooooo) ©2012 André Wilson and Ebraheim Aseem
