In the lecture we talked about copyright and using other people's material in our films. Unfortunately my script included the characters singing a song (no, it's not a musical!). So in order to dodge the copyright bullet, we decided as a group that we would make up our own song... or rather, that I would make up a new song! So, that's what I've spent this morning doing- writing a song about sleep (or lack of).
Once we finish the production, I'll post it up, so the lyrics below will make a lot more sense. But for now, enjoy!
I Dream Of Sleep
All I want to do is sleep,
If only I could close my eyes,
But in the end I know I’d weep,
To know you are not by my side.
Oh if only I could sleep,
I’d dream this night away,
If only you were in my arms,
The night would turn to day.
Where are you, my one, my true?
If only you were here tonight
Oh I will sigh and wait for you
‘Til my heavy eyes can shut tight.
Oh if only I could sleep,
I’d dream this night away,
If only you were in my arms,
The night would turn to day.
In the end, the time will be worth it
In the end, we will be strong
In the end, nothing else will matter
In the scheme of things, ‘tis not that long.
Oh if only I could sleep,
I’d dream this night away,
If only you were in my arms,
The night would turn to day.
