Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Can you shed a little love this way
Head a little love this way
You led a little love this way
I’m OK

Haste to fine
When you taste divine
Haste to find
While we have the time

Can you share a little care this way
Flare a little care this way
There… a little care this way
I’m OK

Can you shine a little light this way
Opine for the light this way
Mine is just right this way
I’m OK

LYRICS
Re, re, re, re, restraint
Wears thin
When I see you
Wearing that skin
The skin you’re in
I’d like to see that again
Love? … or something akin
Rub on passionate
Participate
In appreciate
The love… or something akin
Taking off kid gloves
Spilling my guts
Please don’t think I’m nuts
When I look within
The passion
The person
Love… or something akin
Then again… our offspring is our kin?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Alright
It starts off nice and calm
… when we’re still in love

I thought you said you’d love me
You’d love me till The End
And, then…
It was The End

Things are looking brighter now
And, I know somehow
I’ll find my way out of here
I’ll find my way clear

You said you’d never go
Now, I know
It’s time to go

No blood and guts?
You’ve gone nuts
There’s enough blood and guts
You’ve gone nuts

LYRICS
Hey, Baby!
Don’t call me baby?
Just maybe
I’ve crossed the line
… crossing the line
If I’m crossing the line
Better take my time
… crossing the line

Put on the heels
What is the deal?
Straying eye
“where” / wear the dress high

Forget the bus
Wait for us
If whatcha after
Is happily ever after

LYRICS
Insurmountable task
I don’t know how to ask
Dare I take the chance
Ans ask you to dance
Does it have to lead to romance
Is my mind the kind
That concedes
To wants and needs
Lord, help me please
I’m falling, falling, fall…
After all

LYRICS
Like I told you before
Can’t take it! No More!
Now, close the door
Sure, love will endure
We’ll give it some more
Now, close the door

Looking in your eyes
I see to eternity
Inevitability
Comes as no surprise?
When I look into your eyes
I realize
Us from I’s

LYRICS
Weighing heavy on the bow, now
When the bow bends
When the bow breaks
It’s more than my baby can take
Wailing in the wind, wow
When the wind blows
My brow will break
Watching my baby fall for me
Changing destiny
Cry, baby, cry
Cry
Turn to the East
Turn to the West
As you fall from your nest
Turn to the one you love best!

LYRICS
I gotta get back
Out of the dark
I gotta get back
Needing a spark
Come on, baby, show me the light
Get me through the dark of night

It’s been so long
Since we’ve had sight
It’s been so long
In this light blight

I’ve got the urge
For a surge
I’ve got the urge
For darkness purge

LYRICS
The wind is blowin’ right in
It’d be a sin
For my warmth to be wastin’
Snuggle over cheek-to-cheek
We could have conversation
About going to strong from weak
With our energy conservation
No power for hours
With the power that’s ours
There’s heat to devour
We might write by candlelight
A song of love… my hand as your glove
The power outage
Set the stage
For romance
Our chance
To engage

LYRICS
Could this long, long lonely winter
Be through passing through
Feels like sunlight’s splinter
Yes, Her day has come due

Draw me near to the time of year
When a creature’s comfort is you
Draw me near to the time of year
When I’m your creature’s comfort, too

Could this long and lonely dry-spell
Be through passing through
Gifts of the sky once fell
Her day’s due a re-do
(Chorus)

Could this long, long lonely season
Be through passing through
Searching for rhyme and reason
In everything you do
(Chorus)

Seek my baby
Weep… sigh… save me
Won’t be right
’til we unite
Tonight

Find true love
Sign from above
Won’t be right

Singularity of you and me
Won’t be right
’til we unite

Introspect connect
Extrospect connect
Two as one
Flow as won
