Over And Over

Just like a ghost
You are finally here
She has traveled all the miles
And countless tears

I will make tonight a memory
One to take me higher and higher
The sight of my shadow at your feet
I can see you standing alone

The night itself
Its a revelry
I can drag this image out for a while
I keep her lost with lock and key
Because she's fits  my personal style

She is the kind to lead you in
It is not over
Her smile sets the mood
And so I begin
To walk over
Just a whisper of her words
That makes me grin
Can I please have her
We grab a hold just to face the end
Our spark is what I am speaking of

I made this night a memory
Yes you took me higher and higher
You make it desperate for me to leave
And yet I'm coming back to you

She takes me away
Then leads me in
It is far from over
Her eyes set the mood
So I begin to walk over
She breathes a word
It makes me grin
Can I please have her

I crawl my way back to you again
To hear you speak and feel you dream again
To kiss your lips from well deep within
You are my love
My heroin
I will cross the grave
And fight 'the bends'
To carry our love
To the worlds end

Its not over
Over and over
Its not so over
Over and over

All That We Are

The ice covers the streets cold
The street lights are all old
She feels like a child left on her own
As she flows into her own

It all slowly melts away
Into a wide green river full of shame
But at least shes numb to the pain
L can you see it?

Can you feel the shallow wave
Its like a needle to the grave
Like from your hell to far away
You are my only

You seem so sad my Valentine
On your journey to your light
But like the first flame to the fire
You throw your own soul to the pyre
You're my only

We are
All that we are
We are just holding on
Just until we fall apart

Yes we are
All that we are
We are just holding on
Until we fall apart

What Was It

So here we stand
Within this sun sheltered place
Wanting so much just to see
Your face behind your face

I am left with the dust
Of your lovers
Who have gone before
And who have left no trace

Down by the river's mumbling
Or within the mountains shadow falling
You and were colliding
All of the places
You and I would run off
But what was it we were running from

I will watch you
Silhouetted standing there
Against the silver running water unaware
And like a blue bird you cut through the air

Did you truly think that you couldn't chose
That I would be here
Win or lose this
In all the places we would hide off
What was it we were thinking of

Within my still house of make-believe
We are one but divided in two
Adam and Eve
You send out and I receive
Down by the rivers side
In our secret world where we collided
In all the places we were hiding of

What was it we were thinking of

Creeping Tide

Oh all of this time
We let it slip past us
As unnoticed as the creeping tide
I want to feel nothing but your body
Alone
Just you and I

You can go
And I will be OK
Its nothing troubling my dear
Just a touch of slipping youth
Dressed in neon gray

So when will we be
Only you and me
Looking at this summer sky
Feeling your hand
Warm in mine
Can I be yours?
Because I call you 'mine'

I don't care where we meet
From the silence of your room
To the constant stomping feet
Of the never resting street

Never recognizing a single thing
From the wind that whips you and me
To signs that litter the streets
All I feel is your hearts beat for me

Perfect Nature

And in our minds
At the very end of things
All at once become
A star-field of memories
An electric display
Glowing background of black and light

That spark that occurs
When mortal eyes meet
A sight of such perfect nature
A wonder

That is what it all means
In the end
To be human
A perfection
Without end

To take such feeling
If one could call it that
To hold it all in ones hands
There is only one word to describe
One word to which we are all tied

The feeling
The thought
Of wonders of the night sky
The wonders that roll above
Billions have felt it
When looking, at night
At the vastness that moves above

Love
