A song about a person who wonders if he can `do anything right `after finishing with his girl.

LOST IN THE POST
I'LL LOOK INTO MY DAYS AGAIN
AND TRY TO UNDERSTAND HOW THINGS GO
A LOOK SAY`S EVERYTHING IF IT`S CAUGHT
OR THEN SOMETIMES THE ANSWERS SHOW
IT`S EVERYDAY AND EVERYTIME
AND EVEN MORE
MY LIFE IS SWAYING BACK AND FORTH
RIGHT TO MY CORE
IF I WANTED TO SEND A LETTER THROUGH
SAYING YOU ARE THE MOST
I COULD GUARANTEE THAT JUST FOR ME
IT WOULD BE LOST IN THE POST
HOW CAN I SAY JUST HOW I FEEL
FOR MOST OF MY TIME
I HEARD FROM FRIENDS OF BOTH OF US
THAT YOU'RE DOING FINE
I COULD LOOK INTO MY DAYS AGAIN
AND SEE HOW THINGS GO
BUT THE PROBLEM IS MY DAYS AGAIN
ARE NOW GOING TOO SLOW
IT`S JUST A THOUGHT BUT STILL, IT`S REAL
AND WITH ME EACH DAY
THAT LIFE IS TO BE GATHERED UP BEFORE IT ALL
BLOWS AWAY
MUST DO SOME THINGS RIGHT
MUST DO SOME THINGS TODAY
MUST DO SOME THINGS RIGHT
MUST DO SOME THINGS TODAY
(MID SECTION MUSIC TO BREAK UP THE VERSES)
MAYBE OUR LIVES ARE JUST MEANT TO BE
SOME THINGS WE LOSE WE CAN NOT REPLACE
WILL YOUR HEART KEEP A SMALL PART OF ME
WHILE I WILL REMEMBER FOREVER YOUR FACE
IT`S EVERYDAY AND EVERYTIME
AND EVEN MORE
MY LIFE IS SWAYING BACK AND FORTH
RIGHT TO MY CORE
IF I WANTED TO SEND A LETTER THROUGH
SAYING YOU ARE THE MOST
I COULD GUARANTEE THAT JUST FOR ME
IT WOULD BE LOST IN THE POST
HOW CAN I SAY JUST HOW I FEEL
FOR MOST OF MY TIME
I HEARD FROM FRIENDS OF BOTH OF US THAT
YOU'RE DOING FINE
I COULD LOOK INTO MY DAY`S AGAIN
AND SEE HOW THINGS GO
BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT MY DAY`S AGAIN
ARE NOW GOING TOO SLOW
IT`S JUST A THOUGHT BUT STILL, IT`S REAL
AND WITH ME EACH DAY
THAT LIFE IS TO BE GATHERED UP
BEFORE IT ALL BLOWS AWAY
MUST DO SOME THINGS RIGHT
MUST DO SOME THINGS TODAY
MUST DO SOME THINGS RIGHT
MUST DO SOME THINGS TODAY
MUST DO SOME THINGS RIGHT
MUST DO SOME THINGS TODAY
MUST DO SOME THINGS RIGHT
MUST DO SOME THINGS TODAY

Hey, Barry- thanks for sharing your song with us! I like the piano intro. Moody. I really like some of the phrasing and the general vibe of the song.
However, the intro verse was too vague for me to get invested. I just didn’t know what was going on or what you were talking about.
Is the phrase “Lost In The Post” too archaic for today’s pop audience? Depends on which demographic you aim at, I guess. Not many young folks using the postal service.
While I like the verse vibe and phrasing, having two in a row was too much before the “Must do some things right” section. I’d get to a break faster.
Hope that helps! Please pay it forward by leaving a comment or review on another writer’s song. Thanks!
