      Hello,

      My name is Aleah Taylor and I have been a professional lyricist for seven years. I have worked for four music production companies and six independent artists. Luckily I have been able to work with a huge range of genres such as pop/rock/house/R&B/folk/country/hip-hop and choral. I am currently employed by two different production companies and a composer, however because I have a fast turn-over rate and am a lyricist full-time I am always keen to take on new work, no matter how arduous. I love the challenge that writing lyrics presents, working with different concepts, beautiful music and talented people. I have a small percentage of my spare work up on my profile on this site: http://songbay.co/artists/16156/

      Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have, or if you’d like a sample of my work in a certain genre. I am happy to oblige!

      Thank you for reading,

      Aleah Taylor

      Hey,

      I’m new to music writing, I have questions about how it goes. I write songs all the time until someone actually brought it up to me as a career. So I’m looking into it   😎 .

      Here’s a few lines from my song inspired by Dion and Streisand’s Tell Him…….
      Let me know if you want to see the rest….
      11885

      So tell him that you love him just before you close your eyes
      You’re in his arms, and he feels so good
      Who in his right mind walks away from this
      [hr]
      This is a verse from my song inspired by Sittin on the dock of the bay – Otis Redding
      Get in touch if you’re interested in the whole song
      11885

      On my way to work
      I found myself driving past the gate
      I parked my car in the mall
      And headed for that small cafe
      I’m drowning in my eight to four
      It seems like nothing’s ever going to change
      So it can wait while I take a break
      It will be there when the morning comes
      So I’ll be chillin in the sheesha garden
      Blowing smoke
      Rings of smoke
      Blowing smoke…..

      Hi Michael, let me know if you want to see more of my stuff. This song is called SHOW HIM inspired by Barbara Streisand’s TELL HIM
      11885

      SHOW HIM

      I’m scared, so unsure to tell him what I want from him
      Will he feel the noose is tightening round his neck?
      Ooh, what if he doesn’t feel the same way?
      Maybe he isn’t serious, and I scare him away
      This might end up being the beginning of the the end.

      It’s not always wise to wear your heart on your sleeve
      Before he feels he can’t do without you
      Just learn to read the signs and he will never leave 

      You can show him, 
      life is so much sweeter when you’re in his arms
      And show him, 
      show him what his life would be without your love
      You’ve built him up to feel important
      But kept a part of you a mystery
      No one would make him feel the way you do

      Show him that he makes you tremble in his arms
      That you need him holding you so tight
      You’re scared you’ll shatter into a million pieces

      So tell him that you love him just before you close your eyes
      You’re in his arms, and he feels so good
      Who in his right mind walks away from this
      When he’s feeling such a man
      You can show him, 
      life is so much sweeter when you’re in his arms
      And show him, 
      show him what his life would be without your love
      You’ve built him up to feel important
      But kept a part of you a mystery
      No one would make him feel the way you do

      Love is common and also rare
      It’s not forbidden fruit for those who dare
      It’s the greatest gift if you really care

      Love is like a tsunami gathering speed
      You could be crushed without a trace
      But fortune only favours the brave
      So catch the tide and ride the wave.

      You can show him, 
      life is so much sweeter when you’re in his arms
      And show him, 
      show him what his life would be without your love
      You’ve built him up to feel important
      But kept a part of you a mystery
      No one would make him feel the way you do

      Ooh, he’ll never let you go
