Kelly Boesch - Eloquent [AI music]

 

Kelly Boesch 

Kelly Says: I have always disliked the way I speak. I think many of us feel the same way. The words sound so beautiful inside my head but by the time they make their way out of my mouth they sound completely different and not even close to the way they started in my head. I was up in San Francisco recently at an event and was listening to these artists speak and one of them was so eloquent and the way he spoke was so beautiful. Exactly how I wished I could speak. So I wrote this song at the airport on the way home. It was written more like train of thought than actual lyrics but it worked. I think I express myself better with my visuals and songs. When I don’t have to speak them. I had a hard time figuring out what type of video to make for this song. Normally I make the visuals first. So my idea behind this one is the women representing the words in a beautiful way. Even though there aren’t actual words in their costumes. It’s just a concept

Eloquent

[Verse 1]

In my head, it all makes sense

Every word just lands

Soft and clear and confident

Exactly how I planned

But it trips on my tongue,

Loses what I meant

Turns into a different shape

Before it’s even said

[Pre-Chorus]

I hear it one way

Then it slips away

[Chorus]

I swear I’m eloquent inside my head

But when I speak, I second guess

And all the beauty turns to less

I’m fluent in the feeling, yes

Just not as eloquent

[Verse 2]

Then I hear someone like you

Words just falling free

Like you don’t have to think at all

It’s just what you believe

And I could listen all night long

The way it flows so true

It’s not envy in my chest

It’s something close to love for you

[Pre-Chorus]

The way it all connects

[Chorus]

You sound so eloquent out loud like that

Like nothing’s missing, nothing cracked

And I’m right here, trying to do the same

But mine don’t land that way

I don’t want your voice, your style, your sense

Just want to feel that confidence

I’m fluent in the feeling, yes

Just not as eloquent

[Bridge]

Maybe it’s okay

If it comes out wrong

If it takes a while

To say what I mean at all

Maybe there’s a way

My words can still belong

[Final Chorus]

I’m still eloquent inside my mind

And maybe that’s a place to start

If it comes out slow or rearranged

It doesn’t mean it’s not the same

I’m holding gold, it just takes time

To bring it from my head to light

I’m fluent in the feeling, yes

And learning to be eloquent
