Lisa, you are way too kind! But I am grateful for the heads up you've posted here. That was really cool of you!
So, the song is called Flower in the Shade and its about how Bella feels when she moves from Arizona to Washington. Usually flowers require a lot of sunlight to make food and survive, and at first she feels pretty depressed about being in Forks. After all, she has spent most of her life in Arizona under the warmth of the constant sun. But, she comes to find out that in the shade of the trees, beneath the endless clouds that her life actually begins to flourish thanks to her finding Edward. So, contrary to the laws of nature, this particular flower grows stronger, and more beautiful in a place where there is no sunlight at all. In fact, because of her undying love for Edward, she wants to be there in the shade with him forever.
Thats the song in a nutshell. Feel free to let me know what you think of it. Its still a rough draft and I am well aware that the vocals are a bit shaky in some parts. I plan rerecording some parts in the near future.
Thanks!
