It doesn't work for me either. Just goes back to the same page.

OK, re-uploaded the links, they should work now.

Without the capacity to play or sing this at the moment, and therefore get a more detailed feeling for it, my first reaction is that it is very square - why 4/4 all the time? It gets the feeling of being stuck - or forced. Even shifting the time signature in places to better fit word-stress would help - though I'd be inclined myself to include some sections of complex triples...

In addition, even within a 4/4 meter, you stick so strongly to the quarter beat, where there are so many places where you can anticipate or delay a beat just by holding notes out a little longer.

None of these are things you need to do, they're just suggestions on how to increase interest.
