You and I, we've been doing this for a while  Constantly cold and hot, without a reason as to why  You and I, we just fit so well together  Put your fingers in mine, and they'd fit perfectly every time  But you're so far away now How could we possibly go without?  The lines that connect us, as stars in the sky?  Or the one that connects us, in every goodbye? How could we turn away, without trying to face  What lays between us here? Did you just say? That you feel the same? -You Feel The Same lyrics by M. Rivera

I know everyone makes a show into a musical nowadays but, Bridgerton always hits, and so us songwriters just have to put words to melodies! This one is from THAT study scene and THAT carriage scene, if yk you yk!!!

"One of the most confounding places to be is the gray area between who you know and who they used to be. I swear I knew him, and I knew him like I knew myself. And who he is now, makes me miss who he used to be before everyone else knew him too." -Echoes of Your Voice M. Rivera

In honor of Valentines Day, I wanted to share lyrics from the show, that are a little more on the swoony and romantic side :) this song that took me a little over a week to write, then rewrite, is about falling in love with an Aquarius. Happy V Day everyone!

"I fell in love with an Aquarius Who overanalyzed everything Mapping the world out in musical scores Writing the words out for people to see The world through his eyes I'd stop and stare, for the wonder that he would sing In my head learning, how he is and still couldn't put my finger on the thing I swear Icarus, was an Aquarius  And I see him every-time I look to the sun If your wings come down, before sundown I'll look for you, just before dusk Before dusk". -IFIL With an Aquarius Lost Things the Musical, story and lyrics by M. Rivera

"I wanted him to be loved, for who he was not just for what he created. If you had known him back when he didn't have everyone swarming him you'd have loved him too I swear. His hilariously analytical mind, his goofiness, his smile. I just hope everyday that he still has people around him who care about HIM. And want to know HIM. That's what we all deserve, to be loved for the warmth we give off as opposed to the light you'd want to stand under." -Echoes of Your Voice M. Rivera

Can I Ask You To Be Mine?

Sharing more lyrics from the show! This scene is between two of our lgbtq characters, as our character Armi confesses his feelings to his poi a character named Caleb. Look forward to more lyrics coming soon!!!

I saw you from across the ferris wheel, sitting quietly Staring into the distance, trying to keep some privacy With every turn of the wheel, for a moment you could fly I could see it in your eyes, it was something you wished inside

Hey flightless bird, I hope you find a mountain To take off, and send your dreams to Jupiter Hey flightless bird, I hope you find someone, to Shower dark skies, in bold chromatic color Don't doubt yourself, you've got the chance to take flight Para siempre, can I ask you to be mine?

-Can I Ask You To Be Mine

Lost Things the Musical story & lyrics by M. Rivera

[wentlookingforlostthings]

Sisyphus, He pushed that rock up, higher, But it always came down. Promising release in the end, but when, He got to the top he found, He was always falling faster, the next time. He lived with regret but I, bet for love, He’d redo the crime.

"I've come to learn that, it doesn't matter if we can give someone the entire world, if you let someone into your world, even the smallest piece, you've given them something they've always wanted. With time you come to realize the entire world isn't anything special without them in it. All I want is to be a part of a world where you exist, that alone is giving me the world. And when you have to leave me or I you, I hope you never forget to remember me because the thing I will miss most is the sound of your voice." - Lost Things the Musical M. Rivera

"I knew that I would never see her again, and I think that was the part that I would never come to full realization of. It would come in waves of disbelief, or sobs that felt like thunder inside my own head. What I'd give to be able to say, I was there for her like I thought I was. Because if she knew just how much joy she brought to everyone, maybe then....she would've felt all the love she gave away reciprocated." -Lost Things Musical
