TOGETHER If you were to go and leave me on my own I don’t know what I’d do Not too sure how I would survive You are my sunshine You are so sincere Together at dusk taking a romantic walk along the shoreline The sand so soft on my bare feet Your sweet touch sending a warm feeling to my heart I can still feel it as I lay in bed with you now You sleeping by my side so soundly You look so peaceful I want to wake you, but I won’t I will let you sleep in peace Finally you awaken Your eyes are still in sleepy fuzz You wrap your arms around my and hold me tight You kiss me so sweetly I feel like melting in your loving arms As long as we are together that will always be ALONE Here I am alone with no one to talk to. Everyone is gone. Why do I feel so afraid? Why does everything seem different as I sit here? The wind blowing outside as the snow wisps along the frozen ground. The tree branches sway in the cold winder wind. I am still scared as the phone rings. It is you saying you are not able to make it home because of the blizzard outside. You are going to spend a night in a hotel. A night at home alone won’t be that bad. I can make it through the night no problem. You will be home tomorrow as soon as you can. For tonight I sit alone and wait for you to come home. FADED LOVE As they sat there talking they realized their love was fading It was moving on without them The glitter that once filled their eyes had gone It left a faded sparkle which meant nothing to either of them The tears that once rolled down their cheeks left with no doubts Their faces that were once filled with joy grew sadder each day as they grew apart How could this be? How could two people be so in love one day and live separate lives the next? They were once so in love No one was able to keep them apart Now no one has to keep them apart They do it on their own Before they left their spot on the hill that day they promised to be friends To go their separate ways, but remain in contact To talk as only friends do To find new loves to fill the void they left in one another’s hearts GOOD BYE LOVE You said you loved me, I said I loved you. You gave me a single red rose, It shall die soon after. In my heart I pray it won’t be. I know soon after, Your love died along with the rose. The sun will set again, As it has the previous night. You will leave me to cry. The sun will rise like before. Off you will go riding on your high horse, Telling me you only wish to be friends. Soon you will be gone, To leave me to love once more RELATIONSHIPS Put your heart into mine. I’ll show you what it is all about. The good with the bad, we’ll work it all out. I’ll see you cry, I’ll see you laugh. A friendship taken to the next level, A new relationship to begin, An old relationship put to the test in new waters. Time to put your mind at ease, Start a new life with me! We’ll take one step at a time and do it right. Just put one foot in front of the other and take baby steps. Love me more than you already do. Put a sign of hope in our minds. Put a feeling of love in our hearts. Put our hands together and trust one another with our lives. Be there for one another when needed, day or night. Search into our hearts and find only each other. So put your heart into mine and begin a new life together. |
