Sly Regrets
I lie on the bed
still tingling
from that love which penetrates
trying to decide if it is satisfaction
I feel
or slow-crawling humiliation.
Has this been my sacrifice,
my condemnation?
Each time it flows this way.
I hear you in the next room
and I am still thinking
as you return.
I take my smile and put it on.
Three dates and we seconds ago lay
in state;
was this the end or a beginning?
Unknown at this point.
I need to know
but cannot ask.
To ask would be to grab
the butterfly by the wings
and hope they don't break.
I look to you for clues;
your eyes,
but they are only staring blanks.
'You ok? You say.
My answer is mute.
My question un-askable.
You say again 'Are you ok. You look
a little pensive.'
Other times I would have left
and placed my cell phone
on vibrate
close to my heart;
wait the next few days
for you to call.
I would tell myself how silly
to bathe in this anxiety
to shower it away with
work and business.
But I know
it will be different with you.
I can't bear the risk
of hiding my thoughts;
to get dressed,
walk away and wait.
You are watching me.
I’m nervous;
sensing you are sensing
something is up with me.
I hear your thoughts
ranging from fear,
to doubting your own performance;
to wondering if
I will raise the commitment flag
and hint that having sex
now required
some payment
in emotional coin;
or if you'll perceive
sly attacking regrets from me.
We both sit
side by side on the bed
each now
swirling away to interior places
where we consult Inner Fears
which tell us precisely
if and how much
we each are worth
this night.
An eternity.
That is how silences feel-
and this ones go on,
unbearably.
No words;
but then
a touching hand:
small thing;
but given and
gratefully received;
small wonderment
where trembling touch
between relative strangers
now sharing finger-tipped intimacy
greater than bedroom sex brings.
It was a gentle brush of a kiss
not the great Passionate One;
It was quiet and sweet.
But one question answered
this time:
all that's left
is for us
is to arrange
next time to meet:
and we did.

Just Out Of Reach
He stands alone
Waiting since eternity
To catch a glimmer
Of the one he waits for
Since the beginning of time
He meets many thinking
She is the one
Only to find
It's not to be
He sighs with each heart break
Shakes his raven head
In sorrow thinking
Will they ever meet?
She has searched
Looking since eternity
For the one soul mate
That seams to be
Just out of reach
She gives herself to the ones
She thinks is indeed
Are her soul mates
Only to learn
It's not to be
She crumbles and cries
Thinking to herself
Will they ever meet?
Like ships in the night
They pass each other by
Not knowing who they are
They keep searching in vain
Each cycle that passes
They are just out of reach
He longs to see
Her face and feel her soul
That only she can
Stir the love that flows
Deep in his heart
Deep in his soul
She longs to touch
His face with a kiss
With the love
That flows in the ebb of time
Deep in her heart
Deep in her soul
Then just by chance
They meet briefly in time
He knows her voice
He knows her smile
She intern knows his heart
She knows his song
They flow with love
That's been denied so long
They feel each other presences
As they each enter a room
Blinded by what they feel
They know not what to do
They are with in reach
But the reality of the world
Has made it impossible
For them to express
How they feel
They both reach out to touch
Finger tip to finger tip
The time of destiny
Ebbs and flows
They have found their souls
Complete and whole
He ask her one simple question
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN SEACHING
Her reply is simple
Since the beginning of time
She asks him one simple question
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WAITING
His reply is simple
Since the beginning of time
Finally they embrace
They are one
They are whole

One More Night
No jacket required, 1985
One more night, one more night
Ive been trying ooh so long to let you know
Let you know how I feel
And if I stumble if I fall, just help me back
So I can make you see
Please give me one more night, give me one more night
One more night cos I cant wait forever
Give me just one more night, oh just one more night
Oh one more night cos I cant wait forever
Ive been sitting here so long
Wasting time, just staring at the phone
And I was wondering should I call you
Then I thought maybe youre not alone
Please give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I cant wait forever
Please give me one more night, ooh just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I cant wait forever
Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I cant wait forever
Like a river to the sea
I will always be with you
And if you sail away
I will follow you
Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I cant wait forever
I know therell never be a time youll ever feel the same
And I know its only words
But if you change your mind you know that Ill be here
And maybe we both can learn
Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I cant wait forever
Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I cant wait forever

When You Say You Love Me
I've been watching you from afar
And the way you make your way around the bar
You laugh like youre really entertained
And you smile like its your favourite game
Now youre moving closer to me
And our eyes have connected emotionally
Not looking for a one night stand
Or a place where a broken heart can mend
I know everybody here wants to hold you
I know what its like cause i feel the same
When you look in my eyes theres a part of me thats still afraid
And when you say you love me do you mean it?
Baby when you hold me do you feel it?
Should i believe the magic in your eyes?
I will wait until the end of time
To here you say you love me like you mean it
Baby when you hold me make me feel it
All i wanna do is make you mine
i've been hurt way too many times...
They say
If you wanna make god laugh
Then all you gotta do is tell him your plan
And i know that the timings not right
Didn't know i would meet you tonight
Its not that i don't really like the attention
i feel luckier than men in the room
Are you really sincere?
Is this just something that you do?
And when you say you love me do you mean it?
Baby when you hold me do you feel it?
Should i believe the magic in your eyes?
I will wait until the end of time
To here you say you love me like you mean it
Baby when you hold me make me feel it
All i wanna do is make you mine
i've been hurt way too many times...
Again and again and again i've been hurt my friend till the end
You know i've been high i've been low i got no place left to go
Again and again and again will this search ever end
And when you say you love me do you mean it?
Baby when you hold me do you feel it?
Should i believe the magic in your eyes?
I will wait until the end of time
To here you say you love me, do you mean it?
(oh baby when you hold me)
When you hold me make me feel it
Should I believe the magic in your eyes?
i will wait until the end of time
To hear you say you love me...
Come on baby say you love me...

On The Run
Everybodys moving way too fast
Before you blink you better find out whos in your path
Pressures building up on every side
In my heart I know that Ive got nothing to hide
What makes you think that youre the only one
Now I know my troubles have just begun
Chorus:
Im on the run, nobodys stopping me
Im on the run, and theres nobody left on my side
Im on the run, I know youre watching me
Theres not enough time to decide
You never know what the night could bring
Every moment all the angels speaking to sing
Why worry just to save your pride
And all the answers are buried so deep inside
Doesnt take a crystal ball to see the truth
Gonna take a miracle to see this thing through
Chorus:
Im on the run, nobodys stopping me
Im on the run, and theres nobody left on my side
Im on the run, I know youre watching me
Theres not enough time to decide
Im on the run, nobodys stopping me
Im on the run, and theres nobody left on my side
Im on the run, I know youre watching me
Theres not enough time to decide
(instrumental break)
Chorus:
Im on the run, nobodys stopping me
Im on the run, and theres nobody left on my side
Im on the run, I know youre watching me
Im on the run, and you cant say that I havent tried
Im on the run, nobodys stopping me
Im on the run, and theres nobody left on my side
Im on the run, I know youre watching me
Theres not enough time to decide

My Side
Black emptiness is where I travel
Casting shadow where ever I go
Someone must play this part
There must be balance to make this world work
There needs to be darkness
May I bring despair, hate, and jealousy
into the lives of others
I despise myself
I despise the thought of being alone on the hated side
I am revolted even though I didn't choose this life
But as I said there needs to be a balance
And she is on the other side
There's always a ray of light in the darkness
She is that light I wish to have stabbed in me
She is my light, the guide of my love
I can feel her deep in my heart
But the darkness covers her in my eyes
Though she is always with me
Because as she casts light there must always be a shadow
I sit near a blackened pool on the opposite side of the world
and I look at the closest reflection I have of you
The moon shines on as I'm wishing you were here
I look into the pool and think of the time we have spent
Those brief few moments when light met dark
'This is a love to fight for'
That's what I said the last time we met
You shook your head and said
'In the end we'll both lose'
Time fades fast
I must convince her here and now
'Look at me' I said in her ear
She looks and her eyes twinkle
'If at anything my dream came true
I brush back her hair
'I got to meet a girl like you'
Gentle lips meet
Sometimes a kiss is all you need to do
That day was the last time I saw her
As time hit the right mark we were forced to pull away
Me into darkness
She into light
I grab her hand and try not to let go
But I was being pulled back
I yell so she could hear
'I'll come back to you I promise'
She nods
'I know you will'
And we break
I am swallowed in the darkness again
Alone and again on the other side of the world
I will wait again for the next day
When light and the dark can meet once more

Bed Time
Here I am struggling to say I love you
A hundred times more in the short time
I have left before I know I have to go to bed
Fighting to stay awake in the mean time
My body is slowing down and
Telling me it’s time to rest
But I cant stop talking to you
My love
Never wanting to go
Never thinking that
I’ve spent enough time with you
The time is here
We say are final good-bye and
I love you’s
With one click of the phone
Your voice no longer rings in my ears
But I dream of your smile,
I look at the phone for a few more seconds
And almost call back and tell you
How much I love you
(Witch would be pointless cause
I don’t know words to express something as strong as that)
And that I never want to stop talking to you
I walk down stairs slowly because I’m so tired
I can barley stay awake
I hang up the phone
Then look at it one more time
Then with what’s left of my energy
I go up stairs to my room
The room we should be sharing together
But we are not,
So I climb into my comfortable bed
Lay my weary head upon the soft pillow
My last thought is
Gosh I wish he was here beside me
When it becomes
Our bed time

The Lover
with his fingers so soft they touch my face lightly
and with his arms so strong he holds me tight
as he kisses my lips i feel the love he has inside
he shows it and says it when he can
the look in his eyes gives me quite a surprise
just befor he says i love you
you can see it on him that he loves me
hes so beautiful yet so quiet most of the time
hes soft hearted to me and very sweet
hes always there
with his beauty bringing hope to my world
an the thoughts of wanting to wake up
and the thoughts of wanting to live
every time i hear his words
the desire in them is clear
the craving for him unbearable most of the time
yet suttle and quiet like him
hes the only one who has my heart
and the power to break them so easily
i long to feel him close and hear his voice so sweet
his beauty could never be taken nore tainted to me
he is the lover my sweet man
the one who catches me an helps me land
he helps me stand up and holds my hand
he never lets me down nore lets me fall
for him i am thankfull hes my lover moste of all

I Want That
I see her with her man walking hand in hand
Their arms entwined, she will be wined and dined,
A kiss on the cheek, her sweet smile.
I stopped, and I stared for a while
And they walk down the street,
Passersby, impressed, then comment, oh that's so sweet.
I want that.
I seek my match, but they all go in a flash
Just not the right one
Just not the right time
But I see love walk by, time after time
And, I want that.
And I wait and I wait for my time to come.
I see couples wed half a century or more
Excitement in their eyes each time their match comes through the door
I look on with tears in my eyes
As I question if this love thing is not all Lies.
But I still want that

Think
Wait wait wait
You never wanna wait
Wait wait wait
Slow down
Stop and think
Think think think
You never wanna think
Cause everything
Could it be a dream
Another bad dream
So I drink, drink, drink
I'm putting down the drink
Cause I can't feel a thing
Cause every time you say goodbye
I've seen that look a thousand times
There's no more room left inside
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Fear fear fear
Just don't be afraid
Afraid afraid afraid
Watch the tube and waste
Waste waste away the days
Flush it down the drain
Cause every time you say goodbye
I've seen that look a thousand times
There's no more room left inside
And every time you say good night
I love to watch you close your eyes
There's no more pain left inside
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Hate hate hate
You always gotta hate
Cause every time you say goodbye
I've seen that look a thousand times
There's no more room left inside
And every time you say good night
I love to watch you close your eyes
There's no more pain left inside
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

Can't Wait To Be With You
(Will Smith)
(I can't wait to be with you, uh)
I can't wait to be with you (yeah)
I can't wait to see you (uh)
I can't wait to be with you (haha)
Loving you is all I want to do
10 o'clock my flight lands
Can't wait to hold the palm of your hand
Been 7 long days, since the last that I saw you
And every free moment I get, I got to call you
Takin' every chance, to glance at your cute face
And lookin' at your 8 by 10 in my suitcase
Ain't been with my honey in a long while
And when I get a hold of you, mmm child (oh, yeah)
No tellin' what I might do
Cause I would be like a kid that got a toy and it's brand new
Can't wait to hold you, can't wait to see you
Can't wait to treat you, can't wait to be with you (oh, yeah)
I can't wait to be with you
I can't wait to see you
I can't wait to be with you
Loving you is all I want to do
Bein' in love is like an amusement ride, G (woo)
I feel like it's a party inside me
Smile on my face, and there's a twinkle in my eye
Time to go to work, but it's so hard to say goodbye (oh, oh)
And as I think of you, it's like I had a drink or two
I feel dizzy, damn where is she?
Pick up the phone and call you about three (Female voice: hello)
Yeah baby it's me, just to hear your voice, just the thought of you
Got me trippin', it's why I just bought a new
Cellular phone, so I don't have to postpone
When my beeper goes off, no more runnin' to a pay phone
Your astoundin', it's why I'm expondin'
So vivacious, and baby your face is
That of a goddess, it's makin' me feel numb
A fe fi fo fum, yo baby come and get some
Of the man, the myth, so debonair
What said while fair, is a pair
We extraordinary, me and you as a team, it's kinda swell ain't it
Love is hole and I tripped, then I feel in it (oh, that's why)
From the mountain, to the valley, to the deep blue sea
All I can do is hope and pray, you want to be with me
I'm sayin' this from my heart, that's how you know that it's true
Yo, I can't wait to be with you
Girl I know it's true
I can't wait to be with you
I can't wait to see you
I can't wait to see you baby
I can't wait to be with you
Loving you is all I want to do
Alright check it out, break
Yeah, uh huh, oh yeah
That's how I like it
That's how I like it
woof, woof, woof, woof
HEY, OH YEAH, OH WEE, YEAH
Yeah, presto chango I wish I was a magacian
Snap my fingers or tap my heels and then
Abra cadabra, righ there beside you
But it's seemin' and dreamin', that's all I can do
I'm in an airport, an hour until flight time
Can't wait to have you direct in my sight line
Got a warm feelin' in my chest, thinkin' of your soft caress
I miss you so much and it ain't enough to just reach out and touch
I want to hold your hand, in my hand
And walk and talk barefoot in the sand
(And I can't wait) to just see your smile
(And I can't wait) to be alone for a while
(And I can't wait) to do the things we do
I can't wait, I can't wait, oh I can't wait to be with you
Oh, can't wait
I can't wait to be with you
I can't wait to be with you
I can't wait to see you
Just to see you
I can't wait to be with you
Baby just hold you
Loving you is all I want to do
I can't wait to be with you
I can't wait to see you

Love Is Like A Butterfly
Love is like a butterfly
As soft and gentle as a sigh
The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings
Love makes your heart feel strange inside
It flutters like soft wings in flight
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing
I feel it when youre with me
It happens when you kiss me
That rare and gentle feeling that I feel inside
Your touch is soft and gentle
Your kiss is warm and tender
Whenever I am with you I think of butterflies
Love is like a butterfly
The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings
Love makes your heart feel strange inside
It flutters like soft wings in flight
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing
Your laughter brings me sunshine
Everyday is spring time
And I am only happy when you are by my side
How precious is this love we share
How very precious, sweet and rare
Together we belong like daffodils and butterflies
Love is like a butterfly
As soft and gentle as a sigh
The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings
Love makes your heart feel strange inside
It flutters like soft wings in flight
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing

One Slow Dance
You're standing here alone
And so am I
But I want you here by my side
Oh you smile at me
Is everything this staring game?
That song of love
I look you in the eyes
And I try to read your thoughts
I ask you to go with me
To a far off place
Oh
I look you in the eyes
And I try to read your thoughts
I ask you to go with me
To a far off place
You and me dancing the night away
You can feel my heart beathing so hard
We look eye to eye
But I'm swept away
On a moonlit walk on the beach
Watching the sunrise for the first time
I'm in a trance for that one slow dance
You're standing here alone
And so am I
But I want you here by my side
You smile at me
Is everything this staring game?
That song of love
I look you in the eyes
And I try to read your thoughts
I ask you to go with me
To a far off place
You and me dancing the night away
You can feel my heart beathing so hard
We look eye to eye
But I'm swept away
We don't have to talk
We don't have to live at all
I just want you here with me
We don't have to talk
We don't have to live at all
I just want you here with me
You and me
You and me dancing the night away
You can feel my heart beating so hard
We look eye to eye
But I'm swept away
On a moonlit walk on the beach
Watching the sunrise for the first time
I'm in a trance for that one slow dance

As I wish
How can I wish you sweet dreams when I get no sleep?
Sleepless nights make me nervous and compel to weep
All great hopes are in tact with me and I shall always keep
I shall try to reach you even if path is dangerous and steep
I wished to stay as near as possible
It couldn’t materialize as I was unable
With all my resources to reach
It was still worth try for search
I am all for divine love and union
I need you as my true companion
I know you can well come of the expectation
Impossibility is ruled out and is out of question
You may opt for me at an appropriate time
You had told me that it was your concern and interest prime
You had shown tremendous courage and will
I shall stand by you and make you to feel
Our relation is solidly bases on trust
For any good foundation it is necessarily and must
Even iron gets corroded and junked with rust
We must take enough care and insist
I have said n umber of times that you are so dear
You may be living very far but I feel you are so near
My ears are longing to hear your sweet voice
I must go for it at dead night when there is no noise
It may afford me a chance to feel every pulse
I am not aware of any love game or rules
It is my wish and desire to know you better
It remains for me question of life and death for that matter
You have to feel secure and nothing to fear
Rest all you leave it for me to bear
You extend only helping hand in case of need
I can smell the flower and eyes are nicely read
when you have decided to repose complete trust
I have no reason to go for any mistrust
I should go along as it is desired
The love is going to be permanent and not hire
Stars may twinkle for short period and disappear
Moon with all her patches may try to appear
They may have no bearing on my thinking
I shall stay firm without any shrinking
I may prove to be very straight as you wanted
We have desired that it should be firmly bonded
I have to act fast, , take decision and decide
No time is left out to consult and confide

Tongue Tied
Before I spoke
Your voice was moving here
The water safe
This way
That way
I feel his thoughts
Your choice
It's all there
There comes a time to find
Piece of mind
Take some time to let go
'Cos I wanna know
So tongue tied
I can tell what's on your mind
So tongue tied
But I want you by my side
And I wait
And I wait here for a while
Just to see your smile
So tongue tied
I can tell what's on your mind
The day I mean
A sign a world too
To get you back in mine
For a time
The cloudy phase
But I do wanan hear from you
The only one to feel
In a here
You have a mind of your own
And I wanan know
So tongue tied
I can tell what's on your mind
So tongue tied
But I want you by my side
And I wait
And I wait here for a while
Just to see your smile
So tongue tied
I can tell what's on your mind
We appear there is fear
Be right here
So tongue tied
I can tell what's on your mind
So tongue tied
But I want you by my side
And I wait
And I wait here for a while
Just to see your smile
So tongue tied
I can tell what's on your mind

Wanting To Be With You
the days are so long and nights even longer they seem almost endless
with out you there by my side
all I wanna do is be next to you
I ask for nothing, except you to let me keep loving you
the only thing I wish for is for you to be with me
you got me wishing
I could be with you,
to feel your lips touch mine with such passion that I want to scream,
to touch you like you've touched me,
to hear you whisper softly in my ear
I want to be with you forever and ever
I feel you in the depths of my soul.
if only you were able to see
the love light that shines in my eyes
maybe then you would know
how my love for you
stretches farther then the eye can see
or the air can breath
and to the end of infinity
if only you could see the smile that you put on my face
if only you could feel my heart beat faster when I hear you say I love you baby
if only you could hear my thoughts of you
if only you were aware of these things
from your own point of view
then you would know
the feelings I express
belong only to you
if only we could be together so I wouldn't have to wish to be close to you
my spins for fortune and my wheel kept
landin on bankrupt, before I met you
now it feels like I'm rollin in the money
still we are so far apart
I need you by my side
til that day
I gaze at the sky
longing for tomorrow to be that daythe day we can be together
that day will start the beginning of forever
I want to be us
but I'm still waiting for
forever to start today

Words of Lament
How it has become written
Sorrowfully into my thoughts
The silence of my lonesome night
The suffering of my lonely heart
I try to drown in spirits
In the hope of raising my own
I am as successful in doing this
As my unrequited love has been
Never achieving the desired answer
While often not asking the question
Time which is fleeting at best
Passes by with ever gathering pace
And I have wasted so much
In thoughts of fancy and love
Never making a decision or action
Just thinking of words and feelings
Held by a fear of what could be spoken
Without ever actually knowing
And all that’s left when the night is done
Are these thoughts, words of lament

I Want To Hear It From You
I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from someone who knows how it is
All the second-hand words seem to get in my way
I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it again
I want to know if the soft scented touch of your lips
Must be taken away like a mothers first kiss to the life that she gives
Ive got a right to get it straight from you
To give my life a different point of view
To find a way to keep from losing you
If you dont know what to say
To understand is my life and the question is why
You should cry in the night while your eyes look away
Every time that I speak and theres nothing to say
I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you
Let me know how you feel
Youve got to make up your mind
Tell me where I can run
When my roof tumbles in
I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you

(tennant/lowe)
------------
At dead of night, when strangers roam
The streets in search of anyone wholl take them home
I lie alone, the clock strikes three
And anyone who wanted to could contact me
At dead of night, till break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
Its much too late
Whereve you been?
Whove you seen?
You didnt phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? you know you could
Ive tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
I never knew time passed so slow
I wish Id never met you, or that I could bear to let you go
At dead of night, till break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
Its much too late
Whereve you been?
Whove you seen?
You didnt phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? you know you could
Ive tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
Whereve you been?
Whove you seen?
You didnt phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? you know you could
Ive tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
Whereve you been?
Whove you seen?
You didnt phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? you know you could
Ive tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
Whereve you been?
Whove you seen?
You didnt phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? you know you could
Ive tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
I never knew till I met you

Please Don't Leave
I hate thinking about it.
I wish there was something I could hit.
Sometimes I get so mad,
Other times I just get so incredibly sad.
I know this is your choice
And although my opinion I have voiced
I will always support you
With everything you want to do.
Simply put: it just sucks.
I wonder if it's just my luck.
Things are going so good
But will everything continue to go as it should?
You are the thing I love the most
But will the memories just start to linger like a ghost?
We have gone through so much
And in my times of of need you act like my crutch.
What will I do without you here?
Sit and stare at the wall in fear?
I need to know you are safe
And that they won't push you until you've had enough.
Wearing your clothes is great
But your smell is fading at quite a quick rate.
It won't be the same
To not hear you say my name.
How can I go for for weeks
Without getting to hear you speak?
It's not possible for me to not be upset
But I made a promise to you that I will never forget.
I will count the days until you come home.
Until then i will continue to roam.
I will wait for you until you come back
And we can make up for the time that we have lacked.
I won't see your smile
For quite awhile.
I won't get to stare into those eyes
In which time seems to fly by.
I won't feel your hand in mine
But I'll pretend I'm fine.
I won't feel your kiss
And that I will certainly miss.
I don't want you to go.
I will feel so low
Because you won't be near
And you are all I want, my dear.
You will be gone for so long
And some are hoping it will make me strong.
I don't want to find out,
But I don't want to act like a child and pout.
I think of all the things you will miss out on
In all the time you will be gone.
What can we possibly gain?
I don't want to go through all that pain.
You always say the military has their rules,
But sometimes I wonder if they're all just a bunch of fools.
I want you to be here with me,
Not there doing whatever they please.
You are my entire world
And I would do for you whatever I could.
Baby, you are my everything.
Without you I have nothing.
I have tried to take your hand
And make you understand.
Sometimes I wonder if you even hear my words
Or if I'm better off talking to the birds.
One thing that will never diminsh is our love,
Even when we are up above.
You can't just walk away,
Because I need you to stay.
So as I squeeze my sleeve
I'm going to ask you, 'please don't leave.'

Connotation Drops
If looking to make a little mistake
I have come to you
Do not ask me why I am so
We had met on the
other end of this song also...
The moment of which some memory and
some forgetting were weaved
And now all over we are in a tune
played on the festival of strangers,
If it is there, do not ask me of its beginning
Do not ask me of birth
in which way I am...
For death I have seen and my birth is many
I do not have long words to tell you
of my stories
of escapes and chase
inside the caves of the heart
in a dropp and a sea
a moment and an age
blend together and turn into a company
that is why night is young, always.
If my sorrows are caressed by unseen thoughts
If my tears are theft by the traps styled by my own self
Ask me not, why I don't cry
In the lanes of life, I too turn back
to take a glance at places
which I have left and to which shall never return.
In an unspoken voice
I write on you the music of a touch
We shall never know, the last time we sit side by side
And speak and think of nothing has just passed.
If looking to make a little mistake...
I ask you what the colour of love is
In which garden blossoms the butterfly
And embarks on to eternity to meet the wings of rainbow
Know that, it is in the joy of celebration
of the defeat of my ageless loneliness
in the hands of meeting a moment of yours,
I am portraying my own sketches in a shade even
not known to me
So just let me make a little mistake
As I come across a mirror while crossing the road
Let me glance at myself and not think what I see to be known..
