Soon

 

Soon


There was an aura around you

Pulling people into what you do

Energizing their lives giving them room

Falling in love too soon


People come and people go

Learning listening in the flow

Talking about the things that they know

Leaving our lives too soon


A day passes and you move on

Singing your lovely life song

With feelings felt so strong

Did it have to happen so soon

Got To

 

Got To


Once upon a time

Are famous words

Uttered long ago

Been taken to heart

In our younger days

Tossed about in sorrow


We don’t need to go back

We don’t need to pretend

We don’t need to live

A life that once was

We lived it once

Don’t know what is the fuss


Got to move on

Got to get ahead

Got to relax

And enjoy my life

Got to love

Got to give

Got to be happy

With what I’ve got

Am I Dreaming

 

Am I Dreaming


I was there when love came crawling to my door

Blessing my life in ways I kept asking for more

I had to wonder it what I felt was true

No one had ever known me the way that you do


When you went away something was truly amiss

When you returned it was such a feeling of bliss

I had to wonder if I was dreaming was true

All the love in the world was wrapped up inside of you


I have to wonder if I am dreaming

All of this


At night I dream

I hope to know what it means

But then you are there

All is well in the world

Because you care


Fairy tale dreams and sugar plum endings

Arced light for my heart keeps on mending 

Gentle words and soothing touch fill my everyday

I’m the luckiest man in the world I have to say

A Song I Sing

 

A Song I Sing


Love is a song I sing

A search for something true

Building strength in my mind

Affecting all I do

With a hope that in the end

I have been true to myself

In a world where I will bend

Not needing others wealth


Love is a song I sing

An expression of my heart

A feeling I hope to bring

In a world that is so dark

A type of sharing that is mine

Lifting downtrodden souls

Helping others see the line

And be more in the know

Gale Force Winds

 

Gale Force Winds


The sound comes from the trees

Powered by gale force winds

The sound comes from the trees

Powered by gale force winds

Leads to a new moment

Where my baby begins


The leaves shake and rattle

As thunder fills the air

The leaves shake and rattle

As thunder fills the air

Our world does abound

In the love that we share


Lightning crashes loudly

Bright light fills up the room

Lightning crashes loudly 

Bright light fills up the room

Could stay here all night

Could stay here until noon

Keep Me From Loving You

 

Keep Me From Loving You

Love lives in my heart

Not always on my face

Warm thoughts I want to hold

In a loving embrace


Roadblocks in my way

Keep me from loving you


Not always good with words

When emotions running true

Caught in a world of hurt

When I want to be loving you

Love In Flight

 

Love In Flight


Here I am 

How about you

Are you ready

To get in the groove

Dancing together

Sure feels right

Hold our bodies

Oh so tight


Take the steps

Feel the heat

Of love in flight


Warm am I

Warm are you

Going to try

To do something new

Spin you around

Give a kiss

There is nothing

Better than this

Hold Me Tight

 

Hold Me Tight


Evening air

Feels so grand

Good spirits

In demand

Music’s playing sweetly

In my mind


Summer warmth

Fills the space

Splashed with a 

Touch of grace

I’m so glad you’re 

Here with me


Walk with me

Hold me tight

Fill me with 

Sweet delight

I love the look

In your eyes


Walks along

The sandy shore

Midnight swims

So much more

Happiness

Has entered my life


There is you

There is me

The signs say

We are meant to be

Love is all around 

And it is ours


Walk with me

Hold me tight

Fill me with 

Sweet delight

I love the look

In your eyes

I’m Waiting

 

I’m Waiting


I’m waiting

Here on the street

I’m waiting

For some relief

Waiting for a moment

I’m sure will occur

I’m waiting for a time 

That will concur

I’m waiting

Waiting for you


I am curious

About you

I am curious

About you


I have heard

Many tales

I have heard

Many sales


Many words about you

Some of them are true

Many thoughts to glean

Can I see right through

I’m waiting

Waiting for you


Interest is there

Are you to my taste

Or is this time

That will be a waste


I am waiting

Waiting for you

Words Won’t Make It Go Away

 

Words Won’t Make It Go Away


Take a walk along that gently sloped hill

Summon the courage to develop your skill

Fashion and fancy lead to a dark night

Sometimes two wrongs end up being right


First you shiver

Then you shake

An attack of nerves

You hesitate

Find the source

Blow it away

Time has come

To learn today


Words won’t make it go away


A downward trend is inevitable

Says a man dependent on a pill

Decent and moral and full of decay

Deciding life has to have its say


First you shiver

Then you shake

An attack of nerves

You hesitate

Find the source

Blow it away

Time has come

To learn today


Words won’t make it go away
