Help Me Write This Song

Not sure how this one came to be...sounds like something out of the 60's...but I don't smoke pot anymore so I know it wasn't drug induced.

Hello excuse me can I share a little bit of your time
You know that you might be a little wiser than I am
I’m trying to sing a message that everyone can hum along
Can you help me write this song?
There’s a chord I need to make this song chime
There’s a word I’m looking for to help this world find reason and rhyme
I’m not sure but it might be love or fight
But maybe you’re better at finding words for a poem
So can you help me write this song
Sit down with me here don’t be afraid to speak from inside
Look deep in the sky let an inner voice take control
Well maybe the right words will have a calming power
Maybe together we can make this message strong
Hey can you help me write this song?
Break
Well Listen to me think about what I’m trying to say
A song of comfort to give you breath and take your fear away
Can you think of a way to explain
That the futures uncertain but hope remains strong
And the doubts we all feel might disappear some dawn
Come on help me write this song
Sit down with me here don’t be ashamed to let your inner thoughts show
Look the world in the eyes speak of what we all hope to find
If we sing the right song it just might bring a change
Or maybe our voices just needed to sing all along
Hey can you help me sing this song?
Break
I know we may never all be friends
A lot of talk about love and peace but why pretend
We were born to fight for life and the fights will never end
We weren’t made to understand
Where life’s going or where it came from
But a simple song might help bring harmony along
We all want to hear it cutting clear through the fog
You know it when you feel it it’s been playing all along
So come on help me sing this sooooooong

If you insist on writing lyrics and singing, would you mind playing the guitar at little less good than you do!
My ears are get drawn back and forth, I don't know what to listen to.
Seriously, an excellent piece of work, the guitar is too good for words, so I'll leave that alone.
Lovely storyline SF, strong message well projected'
Magic, loved it,
One suggestion, watch the line lengths, a couple of times your vocals were getting a tad stretched to get all the lyrics in.
'What word will help this World find reason and rhyme'
'Sit with me and feel free, to let your inner thoughts show'
You're setting a high bar on this forum, what's next?

No I don't any more either!!😀 Yes, it is kinda 60's. Echoing Sid, you play rather well so I'm not sure that you need much help. Great song as it is.

Love it. This one's a little bit meta! But at the same time it's engaging, and a call to action for the listener. Got a serious message behind that title.Lovely guitar work (as usual!) but a strong lyric too.
Very well done.
